• 10. Here by Pavement
  When I listen to this song I get that emptiness feeling I was so used to in the nineties...
• 9. Neil Young by Harvest Moon
  This guy managed to keep being himself for over 30 years... you gotta respect that... The song is nice, mellow... good for a night of candles and wine.
• 8. Cannonball by The Breeders
  Catchy tune, nice video by Spike Jonze. The Dandy Warhols said this better... "Cool as Kim Deal"
• 7. Friday I'm In Love by The Cure
  Critical and commercial peak for the sad britons. They have a lot of other songs but I think this is the best example of their post-Nirvana age.
• 6. Block Rockin' Beats by Chemical Brothers
  This song, for me, captures the club scene in the nineties.
• 5. Civil War by Guns N' Roses
  Ahhh... my last year in high school... Good song, good musical arrangements, Axl at his peak.
• 4. No Rain by Blind Melon
  Shannon Hoon, why'd you have to die? You were amazing. Bringing somehow folkie music to be considered as cool again.
• 3. Nirvana by Frances Farmer Will Have Her Revenge In Seattle
  What? No "Smells like teen spirit"? Yup maybe the song is more representative but this song also tells us a lot about this band, and their superb ways of capturing the nineties' silent angst... "I miss the comfort in being sad..."
• 2. Sometimes by James
  Ever listened to these brits? The greatest thing from this island. Booth has a nice, emotional voice, and this song talks about storms, love, eyes and soul. What could be more beautiful and troublesome?
• 1. Daughter by Pearl Jam
  Yes, I am biased, I love this band. My favorite songs continue to be RVM and Wishlist, but this song... Kind of marks almost three years, since 93 and so on... I think it's the nineties in three minutes.

OK so this wasn't that easy, missing: The Beastie Boys (Sure Shot), House of Pain (Jump Around), Soul Asylum (Misery), Alice in Chains (Down in a Hole) and so much more songs... The Pixies as well, Weezer, Cake... I still think it's pretty accurate, though. Enjoy!

  This is a rock hit... and now a rock classic! Makes me cry every time I listen to it!! But in a good way!! It just kicks ass!!!

• 10. Only One by Goo Goo Dolls
  Goo Goo Dolls is awesome. Only One is perfect song to show their talent as both rock and alternative.
• 9. Changes by Tupac Shakur
  I hate to stoop to "Foo Micah"'s level, but I needed at least one rap song and this is best I could get.
• 8. 21st Century Digital Boy by Bad Religion
  I don't care what you say, Bad Religion is badass and 21st Century Digital Boy is just another example of how Bad Religion expresses the wrongs of the modern world
• 7. Whatever by Godsmack
  A classic heavy metal song by a classic heavy metal band.
• 6. Goodbye by Gravity Kills
  Something to fill in the space. Great song if you like that kind of stuff.
• 5. Under The Bridge by Red Hot Chili Peppers
  What Hardcore_f**k said
• 4. Daughter by Pearl Jam
  Sweet song, Pearl Jam is one of the better rock bands of the 90s
• 3. Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
  Friend told me to put this on, it's not my favorite, but it's okay.
• 2. Prison Sex by Tool
  Tool is my favorite band so I have to have at least one song on here.
• 1. Sad But True by Metallica
  Metallica Rules! "Foo Micah" is a douche and obviously doesn't know what he's talking about and shouldn't waste #7 on "Metallica sucks" and it shows how little good music he can think up.

"Foo Micah" is a douche and needs to die for saying Metallica sucks!!! And btw, Blink 182 aren't that talented and rap suuuuuuuuuucccccccccckkkkkks.

• 10. Good by Better than Ezra
  Great song that I remembered from long ago and had a hard time tracking down what it was called from memory.
• 9. Glycerine by Bush
  Bush is a great band and this had a mellow flow.
• 8. Iris by Goo Goo Dolls
  This is a masterpiece which sets a sad mood, I enjoy sad songs cuase it strikes an emotions, and any emotion at all from music is great.
• 7. Love Rollercoaster by Red Hot Chili Peppers
  This song was like a theme song for my first crush I had, it's also on the Bevis and Butthead Do America soundtrack.
• 6. Counting Blue Cars by Dishwala
  This song makes you think about God which is cool.
• 5. One Headlight by Wallflowers
  Mellow 90's music at its best
• 4. Gotta keep 'Em Separated by The Offspring
  Great band, I remember this from hockey games for some reason.
• 3. Run by Collective Soul
  They also did Shine and The World I Know which are also great.
• 2. Peaches by Presidents of the United States of America
  There isn't a song of thiers I don't like, Peaches was one of the most popular songs but not exactly my favorite but it's what got us hooked.
• 1. The Distance by Cake
  Cake is my favorite band in it's genre, again a great unique sound which I still can't get enough of, I forced my friends to like this band as well.

These are just Pop songs from the 90's, I choice not to include other genres cuase I couldn't fit them all in a top 10. Nine Inch Nails, Metallica, and Korn would be on top then not to mention the Crystal Method. Many of these songs are sad or mellow which is what I enjoy nowadays.
