- 10. Come Undone by Duran Duran
Great comeback from Duran Duran; this song just got everything right, if you ask me.
- 9. I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) by The Proclaimers
One of my favorite songs ever. This song is just two heard to resist. Catchy and peppy.
- 8. Shape of my Heart by Sting
Lyrically, one of the most interesting songs out there. Not many songs allude love to cards. Very poetic and just an awesome song.
- 7. Hyper Ballad by Bjork
Not the cheeriest of songs, but the delivery is phenomenal. Bjork has such a powerful voice, and this song just builds and builds.
- 6. Pretty When You Cry by VAST
Under-rated song from and under-rated band. It's a cynical and dark little song that's not without humour. Awesome melody.
- 5. Losing My Religion by REM
Classic: fantastic song, fantastic video. Truly, REM at their peak.
- 4. Closer by Nine Inch Nails
One of the must seductive beats I've every heard, and I've never gotten sick of hearing this one to this day. Yes it's dirty, but it kicks ass.
- 3. Born Slippy by Underworld
Anthem time! This song just manages to move people like no other. "Shouting Lager! Lager! Lager! Lager!" Perfectly fit for the 'Trainspotting' Soundtrack, it's also a must for a night out!
- 2. Crash Into Me by Dave Matthews Band
One of the most honest love songs ever. The live version with Tim Reynolds is an absolute dream.
- 1. Ultraviolet by U2
One of the best songs U2 have ever recorded; still manages to make me sing "Baby baby baby, light my way" to this day.

- 8. Renegades of Funk by Rage Against the Machine

- 6. One to Abuse by Days of the New
- 5. Going the Distance by Cake

- 2. Cumbersome by Soundgarden
- 1. Closing Time by Semisonic
These aren't really in any particular order, they're just some of my favorites.
By: Miss Independent
- 10. Dime by Ely Guerra
Mexican's greatest singer/songwriter, her album PA MORIRSE DE AMOR (TO DIE OF LOVE) is such a piece of art. I invite you to listen to her. She's just amazing.
- 9. You Oughta Know by Alanis Morissette
If this song is amazing, the unplugged version is much greater "and i'm here to remind you all the mess you left when you went away"
- 8. Animal Instinct by Dolores O'Riordan
A great song about the maternal instinct. I could've written any of the other Cranberries' songs, like "Zombie" "You & Me" "Ode To My Family" They're all just great
- 7. Bachelorette by Bjork
Bj�rk is just great. No needs to explain. Excellent Lyrics and beautiful video. "If you forget my name, you will go astray, like a killer whale trapped in a bay"
- 6. Jealous by Sinead O'Connor
I don't care if she tear Pope's pictures, or she refuses to sing the Americans National ANthem, "Jealous" is a great song. "You don't know how hard it is to be a woman in love with you"
- 5. Inevitable by Shakira
Latinamerica's greatest singer/songwriter; and "Inevitable", from the album �D�NDE EST�N LOS LADRONES? (WHERE ARE THE ROBBERS?) is definetly her greatest song. I'm really sad she became a bitch and offer us such a poor english album: LAUNDRY SERVICE, but I still enjoy listening to her previous albums; specially "Inevitable": "No tienes que decirlo, no vas a volver, te conozco bien: Ya buscar� qu� hacer conmigo" (You don't have to speak, I know you won't come back, I know you very well: but I'll see what to do with myself"
- 4. Don't Speak by Gwen Stefani
This song always reminds me too much things of my past. This is really meaningful to me. No Doubt made the greatest album of the 90s TRAGIC KINGDOM. I really love when it says "With my head in my hands I sit and cry"
- 3. One Of Us by Joan Osbourne
This one-hit-wonder singer/songwriter gave us the song with the most beautiful lyrics ever. "Why if God was one of us / just a slob like one of us / or a stranger in the bus" Beautiful.
- 2. Milk by Shirley Manson
Garbage is one of the greatest bands on the world. Shirley looks really beautiful in this video. I love the song "I can use my tears to bring you home"
- 1. Smoke by Natalie Imbruglia
Natalie Imbruglia just writes amazing songs; but "Smoke" (from LEFT OF THE MIDDLE) is the most sensitive song ever. I can't understand how she avoids crying while singing "Why bleeding is breathing..." Just wonderful.
I am sorry I didn't write any of Tori Amos', Lauryn Hill's, Fiona Apple's or Jewel's songs; I would've liked to, but it's only my top 10-

By: bigSHAYT
- 10. Burn To Shine by Ben Harper
A little more upbeat than his usual songs, it should really get you going.
- 9. Tear by Red Hot Chili Peppers
By far one of the Chili Peppers' best.
- 8. Americana by The Offspring
Another good theme song for the youth of the 90's.
- 7. Two Turntables and a Microphone by Beck
I don't even really listen to Beck, but nevertheless this is a fine chill song.
- 6. Thug Music Plays On by Bone Thugs N' Harmony
If I could pick any one song to represent Bone, this would be it. Even if you're not a fan of rap, downloading this one is a must.
- 5. Badfish by Sublime
My favorite band for about 7 years now, and one of my favorite songs of all time.
- 4. Forever by Ben Harper
Another of Ben Harper's best. Being my favorite musician, I can't deny being biased when it comes to Ben Harper, but listen to this song and try to prove me wrong on this pick.
- 3. Fight For Your Right To Party by Beastie Boys
The anthem for youth in the 90's.
- 2. Another Lonely Day by Ben Harper
My favorite Ben Harper song. Considering that 95% of his songs are masterpieces, this one really stands out.
- 1. Lightning Crashes by Live
This is my favorite song, always calms the spirit down.
If it wasn't strictly 90's I'd put in some older stuff like Dylan, but this list definitely gives the past decade somewhat of a good name.
