britpop

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'90s music' is the definition.
'britpop' can be an answer for 'music' (I've seen this before). I am not certain of the '90s' bit.

'piece including queen and old man' is the wordplay.
'piece' becomes 'bit' (bit is a kind of piece).
'including' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'queen' becomes 'r' (abbreviation for regina, e.g. in ER ).
'and' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'old man' becomes 'pop' (both can mean someone's father).
'bit' going around 'r' is 'brit'.
'brit'+'pop'='BRITPOP'
