Okay, so some of them aren't the best songs in the world, but whenever I hear them, they scream of leggins, rollerblades, poorly spiked hair, and ugly sunglasses.
By: Martina
- 10. One Of Us by Joan Osbourne
last of the best....hmmmmmm....let it be this one...although it dose injustice to many others like ironic, loosing my religion, iris, heaven beside you, kiss from a rose, and soooo many more
- 9. Coolio by Gangsta's Paradise
not really into rap/hip hop but this song is great
- 8. With Or Without You by U2
awsumly beautiful
- 7. Talkin' 'bout Revolution by Tracy Chapman
something else than fast car, maybe even better
- 6. Whats Up by 4non Blondes
great song
- 5. Black Hole Sun by Soundgarden
maybe this should be put somewhere higher, but what's done is done
- 4. Jeremy by Pearl Jam
could be even Alive or Black, but this one is just strong
- 3. Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
in fact i have outgrown nirvana many years back, but you can not neglect their affect even if you tried
- 2. Don't Cry by Guns 'n' Roses
all i can say is ooooooh
- 1. Everybody Hurts by Rem
some more songs would deserve that place, some of Pearl Jam, U2, maybe Nirvana for the impact, but i choose this one, for its simply the best lyrics, music and everything else
would definitely have to disagree with one who said 90' was a musicaly depressing period,,,,so very not true....you just have to know where to look...yes...there were in the late 90' maaaany imitations of good music from britney to bsb...and so on...but there is so much great music......keep enjoying music

- 10. Champagne Supernova by Oasis
One of the greatest new bands the 90's saw. "Someday you will find me caught beneath the landslide in a champagne supernova in the sky."
- 9. One Sweet Day by Mariah Carey and Boyz 2 Men
What's the 90's with a good ol' Mariah Carey tune? And she's at her best here. "And I know eventually we'll be together...one sweet day."
- 8. Everybody Hurts by REM
Classic song with personal sentimental value. "Everybody hurts. Take comfort in your friends."
- 7. Cryin' by Aerosmith
My personal favorite Aerosmith song. Alicia Silverstone becomes a star. "I was cryin' when I met you, now I'm tryin' to forget you. Your love is sweet misery."
- 6. All I Wanna Do by Sheryl Crow
This song put Sheryl on the map and a grammy in her pocket...damn catchy, too. "All I wanna do is have some fun. I have a feeling I'm not the only one."
- 5. Iris by Goo Goo Dolls
Well written song...great performance. "And I don't want the world to see me...cause I don't think that they'd understand."
- 4. If by Janet Jackson
Great dance track, great video, Janet really broke her shell and became a sex symbol. "If I was your girl, oh the things I'd do to you."
- 3. Tears in Heaven by Eric Clapton
One of the finest sentimental songs in history. "Would you know my name if I saw you in heaven?"
- 2. Don't Speak by No Doubt
Best rock-ballad of the 90's. "Don't speak, I know just what you're saying..."
- 1. You Learn by Alanis Morissette
Best lesson of life right here... "You live, you learn, you love, you learn..."
By: Vixen
- 10. A Letter to Elise by The Cure
Fantastic song. Disintegration is the best album ever, though.
- 9. The Sweetest Thing by U2
these guys are gods in the rock n roll universe. this is just a lovely song. just...lovely.
- 8. Trash by Korn
yeah, this album came out in '99, so it barely makes it. this is one messed up song, but i cant help but like it.
- 7. 4 AM by Our Lady Peace
this song just makes me wanna cry every time i hear it... *sniffle*
- 6. Hemmorrhage by Fuel
i'm not a big Fuel fan, but this song really got me here... right here in my kidney-- i mean heart.
- 5. Bravado by Rush
i'm pretty damn young to be listening to Rush, but i loved the Roll the Bones album. "Dreamline" was another great track off that album.
- 4. Hate This Place by Goo Goo Dolls
wonderful song, wonderful album... i just.. ah, it's so great. i mean...geez, people...
- 3. Smash by Offspring
everyone puts "Gone Away" on their list, and although that's a good song (a damn good one), i really liked this one. it described everything i was feeling during high school... and it made me wanna break stuff.
- 2. God of Wine by Third Eye Blind
so many good songs by this band that were never broadcast on radio.
- 1. Long Day by Matchbox 20
"Yourself or Someone Like You" is their best album. "Kody" is another good track off that album. Dig it.
i try to choose songs that werent played on the radio. everyone does that. i'm not sure that's the purpose of this site, but still. there have been a few lists here that have introduced me to some good songs, and have reminded me of songs i'd forgotten about. i thank you all. i hope i was able to do the same for you.

- 6. Super Bon Bon by Soul Coughing

- 5. Rooster by Alice In Chains
Just a cool song, lyrically and musically.
- 4. Naked Eyes by Luscious Jackson
What melodies. Too bad they couldn't come close to it again.
- 3. 3 Strange Days by School Of Fish
Just a cool song to listen to and imagine those three days.

Hard to pick one of Pretty Hate Machine, possibly the best album of the 90s. makes you want to drink yourself stupid.
- 1. Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
Singlehandedly changed the music from 80s to 90s
I am sure I missed bunches of cool songs, but I could listen to these forever.
