- 9. Angle Eyes by Aerosmith
On the sound track for Charlies Angles and i love it!!
- 8. Butterfly by Crazytown
loved this song when it came out, hate it now but hey it was huge
- 7. Erotica by Madonna
Do I even have to say why? she was, is and will always be the queen
- 6. Tears In Heaven by Eric Clapton
Im sorry i just love that song, It is about his son who died, and it makes me cry, but i think its one of his best songs yet
- 5. Bulls On Parade by Rage Against The Machine
This is the song I would listin to when i would go to class and i would get caught everytime. Guess i should have been paying attention lol
- 4. Nookie by Limp Bizket
Once again die hard fan. I just love that band and still listin to them everyday.
- 3. Mama by Spice Girls
Ok ok they are said and done, but whenever I hear that song I cry. It defines my relationship with my mother
- 2. Blackhole Sun by Sound Garden
awsome song that i still listin to everyday
- 1. Got The Life by Korn
Anything that comes out of the mouth of Jonathan Davis is on the top of my list
Everything from Korn limp bizket... well the only music i didn't really like from the 90s was the pop crap ( Britney go away and don't come back, we are happy without you!!)
By: Chanel
- 10. Love Bizarre by (unknown)
I have no clue who this is by~!~!!!!!!!!! but it was good
- 9. What Is Love by Haddaway
I love dance music, I'm not really looking at if its number 9, so it prolly number one to me, everything is..Also on the night at the roxbury soundtrack*great movie)
- 8. We Like To Party by The Vengaboys
Also a one hit wonder, I have thier cd too
- 7. Hey Now ,now by Swirl 360
One hit wonders are the best!!!
- 6. Barbie Girl by Aqua
I love the cd, its the best
- 5. I Want You Back by Nsync
Their second song
- 4. Tearin Up My Heart by Nsync
Their second song I think, this is my teeny popper days
- 3. Faith by Limp Bizkit
Lol, it was one of the top 10 on trl(i was in 3rd grade, shush)
- 2. Blue Monday by Orgy
Also when trl was kool

I remember when I heard this on mtv's trl, when mtv was actually kool, and played rock musik, on trl.

- 10. Ordinary World by Duran Duran
Part of their brief 90's comeback. Light years ahead in the maturity department from songs like "The Reflex" and "Hungry Like the Wolf." Including the 80s stuff, probably their best song.
- 9. Name by Goo Goo Dolls
Most people seem to forget they were a band before "Iris." Sure "Iris" was number one for like forever, but "Name" was better. It had a subtler quality to it which pushed it past "Iris." Check it out.
- 8. She's The One by World Party
Second straight out love song after Wonderwall. Let that quality not shy you away from its greatness. Absolutely beautiful song that could be a top tier contender for my wedding (if I do get married). Robbie Williams did a cover that just doesn't compare.
- 7. Got You (Where I Want You) by The Flys
Mellow altrock combined with a pinch of white rap. Vocals are awesome and ring in your ears like a woman climaxing (maybe not that good). Everyone should check this song out and thank me for the recommendation.
- 6. Two Princes by Spin Doctors
Catchy song that I can't get enough of; I usually hum it before I go to sleep. It's a song that stays with you and is just pure 90s. The lyrics are also pretty good. Highly recommended.
- 5. Wonderwall by Oasis
British band pegged as Beatles ripoffs. I feel sorry for the losers who believe this. Oasis is a top 5 band of the 90's who had a distinct sound. Wonderwall IS their best song and people gots to recognize.
- 4. Everlong by Foo Fighters
Dave Grohl is an extremely talented musician whose skills get unfairly overshadowed by Kurt Cobain. Everlong is a breathtaking song that gave me shivers the first time I heard it. I'm taken aback by the noticeable absence of this song from almost every 90's list on this website. The fact that people choose Britney or BSB or N Sync or Rap over this song or any of the artists I mention makes me ashamed of what music has become. Damn teenyboppers.
- 3. Bittersweet Symphony by The Verve
Incredible song. The greatest thing about this song is the salacious orchestral sound intertwined with meaningful lyrics. Too bad it's been whored out to commercials and the like.
- 2. Delicious by Catherine Wheel
Underrated song from an extremely underrated and underexposed band. This is the song that got the airplay and thank a god for that. However, Catherine Wheel gets no love from radio. Reminds me just why I don't listen to that corporate radio shit anymore. Get the song and the album now!
- 1. In The Meantime by Spacehog
Hard to explain why it's number one, but it's damn catchy. The vocals are perfect for the song and the lyrics are excellent as well. What makes this stand out, for me, is the sound. The "hoo-hoo-hoo" at the start of the song is like cotton candy. Get the song now!
Not necessarily the greatest songs, just my favorites right now. List changes constantly. The lack of certain songs or bands may have people questioning the credibility of my list, but, well you know, blow me. Honorable props go to Barenaked Ladies, Coldplay, Grays, James, Lemonheads, Lisa Loeb, Matchbox Twenty, Nirvana, Posies, Radiohead, Smashing Pumpkins, Tom Cochrane (the one song), and countless more. I'd also like to thank Kazaa Lite for providing me a way to listen to all these great artists.
