- 10. Ironic by Alanis Morissette
Very Catchy lyrics and almost entirely irresistable.
- 9. Miami by Will Smith
Lets throw a little party in
- 8. Give it Away by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Talk about good beat
- 7. Frozen by Madonna
#1 sound effects and catchy lyrics
- 6. California Love by Dr. Dre feat. 2pac
Awesome song with that funky music "California...Knows how to party!!!"
- 5. Smells like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
Instant Classic
- 4. Torn by Natalie Imbruglia
A song that i try to get stuck in my head. I'll never get sick of it.
- 3. Waterfalls by TLC
This song has got the beat and isn't hard to dance to, but the key factor is obviously th message sent out in it about the evilness of drugs. The rainbow verse, as it's known by, has some hard-2-learn lyrics and are worth learning.
- 2. What it's Like by Everlast
This song never got too much credit for it's input, but i personaly think it's a wonderful sad touching song showing the hardships of life.
- 1. Don't Speak by No Doubt
All round applause. Tells the story of a break up through a girl that is hurt all over and doesn't want it to end. The guitars play extemely well and Adrian plays the drums nice and smoothly to fit in with the song. Then there is Gwen's fascinating voice! Deffinetly a #1 hit.
I've based this list not only on what i consider favorites, but by people that like the genre of the song think of it.( exe: California Love "Think in terms of what the rap fans think of the song)
By: Matt T. Stampede
- 10. Crush by Dave Matthews Band
DMB has queitly led their own private revolution towards a softer style of rock that has been missing for the past decade. Great song too.
- 9. Crazy Game of Poker by Of a Revolution
Quirky song that never got much airplay and isn't well known outside of certain areas of the country, but great nevertheless.
- 8. Kiss from a Rose by Seal
The song, off the "Batman Forever" soundtrack, had a sweet, but sad meoldy to it. Beautiful song.
- 7. One Week by Barenaked Ladies
Breakout hit from one of the consistently best bands of the '90s.
- 6. Mysterious Ways by U2
Just a great song to listen to, and really true when you start to think about it.
- 5. Tonight, Tonight by The Smashing Pumpkins
The Pumpkins were the 1990s. Angst ridden, and creative as hell. This song had a killer video too. andd
- 4. People of the Sun by Rage Against the Machine
Although less played then "Bulls on Parade" and "Guerilla Radio", POTS is a better song then both of them.
- 3. Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen) by Baz Lurhman
Some of the best advice I'll ever recieve came from this song.
- 2. Free Falling by Tom Petty
Awesome song, as good as anything they'd done before or after.
- 1. Bittersweet Symphony by The Verve
The perfect song to sum up the 1990s: some good, some bad...overall, a bittersweet decade. The song hits a very deep chord with me. As close to perfection as 90s music came.

- 1. Losing My Religion by REM
When I first heard this song, my reaction was "Oh my God!I can't believe it" I just kept playing it and couldn't stop. This is quite possibly the greatest song ever by a great group REM.
