• 10. When I Come Around by Greenday
  I'd say Greenday is the one band that most reminds me of my high school years. This is my favorite song of theirs. It makes me feel like I'm 15 again. Yeah! A very 90's band.
• 9. Unbelievable by EMF
  Is this not the ultimate 90's song? I love how it just starts off with a bang. It's a very nostalgic song for me, but I also love it just because it's a great song.
• 8. Losing My Religion by REM
  Such an intensely good song! Beautiful. I also love "Try Not To Breathe" from the "Automatic for the People" album. When Michael Stipe sang "It's crazy what you could've had..." it meant a lot to me.
• 7. Battle of Who Could Care Less by Ben Folds Five
  What a great song! Puts me in a good mood. I'm always happy to hear piano in pop songs, and Ben Folds can really play. "Whatever and Ever Amen" is a terrific album.
• 6. Expectations by Belle and Sebastian
  This is a nearly perfect song off probably the most spectacular first album ever (The recently re-released "Tigermilk.") A song about an unpopular girl dealing with the troubles of everyday life at work and school. Stuart Murdoch's sweet little voice is wonderful. Bless this album, everyone should have it. You need it!
• 5. Today by Smashing Pumpkins
  One of the best Smashing Pumpkins songs from back when they were my favorite band. Certainly a classic song and very much of it's time. Takes me back to ninth grade!
• 4. Personal Jesus by Depeche Mode
  I remember dancing in my garage to this song when I was 10 years old! Such a great song of an awesome CD.
• 3. Too many songs to list! by Radiohead
  Oh God, I can't pick one! Radiohead is such a genius band. I love so many of their songs, but "Street Spirit," "Paranoid Android," "Karma Police," "Creep," and "Just" stand out. Certainly one of the best bands ever.
• 2. Seeing Other People by Belle and Sebastian
  Wow, I love this song. It puts a huge smile on my face and I could listen to it over and over again forever! "You're kissing your elbow, you're kissing your reflection, and you can't understand why all the other boys are going for the new, tall, elegant rich kids..." See, I'm already happy! Just about equally good off the same album ("If You're Feeling Sinister) is "Stars of Track and Field." One of my favorite albums of the 90's and ever from this Scottish band. Check them out!
• 1. Seasick Yet Still Docked by Morrissey
  This is such an amazing song. It is very sad yet uplifting in the way that I could relate to it. Morrissey (and the Smiths) are my absolute favorite of all time. "I am a poor, freezingly cold soul...so far from where I intended to go." I can't limit myself to one song, really. I also love "Now My Heart is Full," "Speedway," "There is a Place In Hell for Me and My Friends," "Jack the Ripper," the list goes on and on! Morrissey is my favorite 90's artist, hands down. No one comes close to making me feel the way he does. I can't relate to anyone's songs the way I relate to Morrissey. I absolutely love him!

I couldn't fit them but how about: "Virtual Insanity" - Jamiroquai, "Loser" - Beck, the entire album "Very" by the Pet Shop Boys, "Spooky" - New Order, and so much more stuff I can't even remember! Honorable mention to the brilliant self-titled album by the Stone Roses which actually came out in 1989 but is very 90's. I omitted Nirvana and Pearl Jam, even though I really like Nirvana and Pearl Jam meant the world to me years ago. They are sort of a given and I didn't want to take up space on my list!

• 10. Red by Treble Charger
  This is one of the few bands that can rock AND churn out a ballad with equal brillance. It's a great song by a great Canadian band!
• 9. Christiansands by Tricky
  You can get much more innovative than Tricky. This song is so unbelievably original that it transports you to another dimension when you listen to it. One of the great electronic/trip-hop songs of the decade.
• 8. My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion
  Cringe if you must, but this is THE power ballad of the decade - everyone's heard it, everyone knows it, and no one can forget it. There's something to Celine Dion's voice in this song that is especially magical, it's drenched in emotion. This song will forever be representative of the late 1990's.
• 7. California Love by Tupac and Dr. Dre
  This song brought two of the greatest rappers together at the height of gangsta rap's popularity. It works on every level, and is quite possibly one of the greatest rap songs ever.
• 6. November Rain/Don't Cry by Guns 'n Roses
  It was way too hard to choose between these classic GnR tunes! November Rain has an epic quality to it, and there's a great juxtaposition between hard and soft in Don't Cry. Both songs represent a great time in the band's history and go a long way in showing why GnR are one of the best.
• 5. I Want It That Way by Backstreet Boys
  Whether you dig teen pop or not, this is a song that (almost) everyone likes and can agree on. It's a classic in its own right - the musical arrangement and vocals just sparkle, and it's one TRUE gem in a sea of late-90's generic pop crap.
• 4. Disarm by Smashing Pumpkins
  I could have made an entire top ten list out of the Pumpkins, but this song from the Siamese Dream-era represents the band at their absolute creative peak. It's so original and utterly haunting...it's the one song that consistently gives me the shivers upon every listen. Billy Corgan's vocals express a million sentiments.
• 3. Ray of Light by Madonna
  This song proved - once again - why Madonna is the best and why no one else will ever touch her prowess (nice try Britney, give it up).
• 2. One by U2
  Quite possibly the band's masterpiece...haunting, inspiring, brilliant. Bono's vocals get inside you.
• 1. Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
  This song changed the entire musical landscape of the 1990's, much like the Beatles did in the 1960's. Who can forget that opening guitar, or Kurt Cobain's pained, growling vocals? This song IS the 90's.

While I LOVE all the songs on this list, they aren't necessarily my favorites from the 1990's. But, I feel that all these songs had special significance in their genres (rock, pop, rap, etc) or represented a time or feeling in popular culture, and that's how I made my list :)
