• 10. Last Kiss by Pearl Jam
  Well, Last Kiss is actually an old song, but Pearl Jam did such an amazing cover of it that I think it deserves a spot on my list.. I love Eddie's angsty voice...
• 9. Even Flow by Pearl Jam
  I love this song.. Whenever I hear it on the radio, I smile... It's got great guitar, and Ed's growling voice... whoa...
• 8. You Oughtta Know by Alanis Morissette
  The ULTIMATE women power song!!! Alanis was a feminist with a great voice... what can i say? Her lyrics were also great.
• 7. Come Out And Play by The Offspring
  This is an outrageous song! I love the chorus.. It's humorous, but it's still got a great musical quality.
• 6. Lithium by Nirvana
  *ahem* I LOVE this song. Not much of a chorus, but I think that's what Kurt intended, don't you? GREAT guitar riff.
• 5. Black Hole Sun by Soundgarden
  Who doesn't know this song? Even if you don't like it, it makes you listen. The vocals are strange, but awesome. I love Chris Kornell's (sp) voice...
• 4. Corduroy by Pearl Jam
  This might be one of the only PJ radio hits that actually sends shivers down my spine... The chorus is so beautiful...
• 3. She Talks To Angels by The Black Crowes
  I love the acoustic version of this song.... It's just beautiful. It gives me chills...
• 2. Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
  This was the song that had every flannel-wearing teenager in America ranting and raving... I love Kurt's voice...
• 1. Jeremy by Pearl Jam
  This is, by far, my favorite song from the 90's... Eddie's voice haunts me... He's just the most amazing lyricist of all time... Greatest song ever, greatest band ever.

As you can see, I'm an extreme Pearl Jam fan, so that might have biased my opinion a little. But what can I say? Pearl Jam is amazing. I grew up in the nineties, so I've been exposed to it all my life... Not a bad music taste for a 13 year old girl, eh? *laughs nervously* so, yeah, that's my list... Hey, at least there are no pieces of pop garbage...

• 10. Dreams by Cranberries
  A summer in the mid-90s, this tune pops up and i can't help but get enraptured in it and love those wailing vocals at the very end.
• 9. Creep by Radiohead
  Because i'm a creep! I'm a weirdo! what the hell am i doing here? Yeah i was very anti-social and self-loathing as a teen, this song just help justify my mentality.
• 8. Self Esteem by Offspring
  Loved this song...sounds so damn cool, "Smash" was a good album.
• 7. Santeria by Sublime
  Beautiful sounding little song that has ridiculous lyrics, still old memories of my past overwhelm me when i hear tunes that were THERE.
• 6. Loser by Beck
  Once had a friend, about 20, who was drunk and drove me around as a teen singing the chorus to the top of his lungs, and i understood why, and how much i loved this sliding guitar/ hip-hop sounding song about god knows what and losers.
• 5. Don't Speak by No Doubt
  Well this song would be the essential "first love, first broken heart"-song for me. Being a little prick back in the day this was the song i'd hang my head depressed at the thought of this certain girl i was in love with.
• 4. When I Turn Around by Green Day
  Before discovering the album "Dookie", i saw the video for this song and i loved the lyrics and feeling it gave me...my personal favorite of Green Day.
• 3. 1979 by Smashing Pumpkins
  As a young little bastard i use to love this song and wonder who they were, then someone said, "it's the Smashing Pumpkins you moron! You must know them or your not in the times!" Well lets just say cool kids never have the time...
• 2. Under The Bridge by Red Hot Chilli Peppers
  Beautiful ballad on reflecting on the past and being in the city you love. I can't hear this song and NOT think of my childhood in l.a. and how i loved this band.
• 1. Big Empty by Stone Temple Pilots
  I've heard this song on the radio during the 90s about a hundred times and i still love it...just brings back moments of the decade.

Well all these songs, most of them are rock statio staples, are my Vol. 1 to soundtrack of the 90s in MY opinion. They bring back nostalgia and i know i should've put Pearl Jam, Weezer, and Nirvana on here but they'd be on a 20 list, the latter being overused on lists. I love Nirvana but it's just too cliche, plus i got into them in the late 90s, after i got into these other songs...how? i dunno, just late In Bloom. Each song carries images from my past, which a bark of my young years in the 90s. Also honorable mentions to "Sex and Candy" by Marcy's Playground, "Zombie" by Cranberries", "Runaway Train" by Soul Asylum, and "Song 2" by Blur.

• 10. Rage Against The Machine by Killing In The Name Of
  Feel the love

  Could easily be 'Today' or 'Mayonaise' here
• 8. Faith No More by Ashes To Ashes
  Just awesome
• 7. Mouth For War by Pantera
  Even more love

  So hard to choose my favourite Garbage song, could have been almost any song off their first two albums

  Best song off the best album of the 90's

• 10. Roots Bloody Roots by Sepultura
  The native South American flavour of this song just cranks. A brutal assault on the senses from the start to the finish. Showed that more was achievable with Metal than just screaming vocals and guitars.
• 9. Common People by Pulp
  Labeled as 'Britpop' but Jarvis Cocker's lyrics deserve more than Oasis comparisons.
• 8. Dry The Rain by The Beta Band
  A great mixture of Indie and Pop influences and styles.
• 7. New Noise by The Refused
  A great slice of hardcore. Shame they broke up not long afterwards.
• 6. Brother's Gonna Work It Out by Public Enemy
  This may have been 1989, but I bought this album in 1990 so I'm including it. Most respected and influential rap band ever, back when rap was cutting edge and relevant.
• 5. Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
  I was 15 when I first heard it, and it changed alot of things for me. But lets give Nirvana their due, and not include them as a Grunge band. They had far more of a Punk pedigree.
• 4. Angry Chair by Alice In Chains
  The best grunge band from the scene. Layne had one of rock's most distinct voices.
• 3. Three Days by Jane's Addiction
  Dave Navarro's guitar playing. Does anything else need to be said?
• 2. Caffeine by Faith No More
  Best song of the best band of the decade. Mike Patton will one day be held in very high esteem as an innovator.
• 1. Ars Moriendi by Mr Bungle
  So many styles of music in one song. Every time one listens another instrument can be focused upon.
