- 1. Ants Marching by Dave Matthews Band
not even my favorite song by Dave, but it had the pop music quality to appeal to everyone
im sure im leaving off like 30 songs. but this is what came to mind. and if it was really the top 10 songs of the 90's, there would be like 8 dave matthews songs on here but since not everyone likes him, i limited it to 4.

- 4. Genie In A Bottle by Christina Aguleria
- 3. Hit Me Baby One More Time by Britney Spears
- 2. Dont Want U Back by Backsteetboys
- 1. I Wanna Be Down by Bandy
By: Chris
- 10. Jeremy by Pearl Jam
Pearl Jam has remained after the fall of good music and the rise of corporate imaging. This song is illustrates the raw talent and emotion that Pearl Jam possesses and fans have come to adore.
- 9. Hit me baby (one more time) by Britney Spears
I really really hate to have this on here, but in all objective honesty, this song paved the way for all of the consecutive teen popstars that followed after britney, damn it all.
- 8. Juicy by Notorious B.I.G.
One of the greatest rap songs by one of the greatest rappers, you can dance to this song and you can just sit back and enjoy it for all of its worth.
- 7. Heart-Shaped Box by Nirvana
This song demostrates everything that Nirvana was about: pure angst feelings of surging depression. The song starts low and melodic than erupting with powerful emotion like a person struggling to pent up their anger than periodically venting those feelings in a glorious presentation.
- 6. Gangsta Party by Tupac feat. Snoop
Arguably the two best rappers ever collaborate to create a rap song just short of perfection.
- 5. Plush by Stone Temple Pilots
These guys just rocked and this was their best song. I realize I have a lot of grunge rock on here, but grunge was the only respectable form of music during the 90's before it was unholied by the Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit crap that disrespects everything rock music stands for.
- 4. Stinkfist by Tool
An incredible song establishing Tool as the best, non-mainstream rock band during the 90's. This seemingly dark song about fingering a girl delivers as much energy as anything.
- 3. Paranoid Android by Radiohead
This song showed the world that Radiohead was evolving into a legendary band. Radiohead will always be revered with the same respect as Pink Floyd and this song was their most important of the 90's.
- 2. Alive by Pearl Jam
If Nirvana was the most influential, then Pearl Jam was definitely the second most. The guitar solo in this song rivals the Stones and Zepplin. Pearl Jam would have been huge even outside of the grunge era.
- 1. Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
This song undeniably is the best song of the 90's if not also the 80's. Its impact on rock culture is only rivaled by the incredibly songwriting that went into it. Kurt Cobain was a modern-day Dylan in his song writing abilities and he has one of the most awesomely rock n roll voices; he was the last true rock n roll star. This band will remain legendary for generations and will be glorified as more than a "Seattle grunge" band.
In all honesty, when speaking of rock music, the Seattle Grunge movement was the best thing to hit the 90's. It blew away that materialistic hair-band era and brought forth true passion in music. Of course that's all been lost again and we are back into an even worse era of materialistic untalented artists getting rich off of unskillful music.
