- 10. The Dolphins Cry by Live
This song is amazing. The lyrics are amazing and it sounds unreal. By far the best song of the 90's.
- 9. The World I Know by Collective Soul
The music video is unreal. The song is classic, definitly one of the best.
- 8. Counting Blue Cars by Dishwala
This is another great song. I love it, I'm not sure what it's all about, but it's extremely cool.
- 7. No Leaf Clover by Metallica
Very cool song, it's more of a rock song, but I love it.
- 6. Higher by Creed
This song about lucid dreaming is one of the best out there.
- 5. Fields Of Gold by Sting
Great song, written very well.
- 4. All Over You by Live
One of the best songs around, I don't know else to say.
- 3. Goodnight My Angle by Billy Joel
I think it's also known as Lullabye. It's very nice.

The song reaks with sweetness.

I like this song.
By: Tom G

one of the catchiest songs ever made that almost everyone enjoyed

such a bizarre song, but everyone loves it.
- 6. battle of who could care less by ben folds five
possibly BFF's best song ever written
- 5. santa monica by everclear
i like everclear, i even like the new stuff they do. but back in the day, this was the greatest song. it's gotta be on this list somewhere
- 4. sucker by self
i'm possitive that nobody else but me has heard this song on this whole web page, but it's a really nice song. if you ever get the time, download it off napster or something.
- 3. say it ain't so by weezer
i don't see how anybody could not like this song
- 2. smells like teen spirit by nirvana
nirvana's best song...ever.
- 1. monkey wrench by foo fighters
although it's probbly not the best song of the 90's, deciding between it and smells like teen spirit is tough. both are creepishly good songs.
By: Autumn
- 10. november rain by guns and roses
- 9. don't speak by no doubt
- 8. rush rush by paul abdul
- 7. Baby Got Back by Sir Mix alot
- 6. Oh you say he just a friend by some guy
i have no idea who sang this, but its always stuck in my head
- 5. Rock the Cradle of love by Billy Idol
He brought the 80s into the 90s
- 4. How can I talk to an angel? by The Heights
a great show about an early 90s band
- 3. Stay by Lisa Loeb
classic 90s
- 2. Rico Suave by Gerardo
party party...rico suave
- 1. Ice Ice Baby by Vanilla Ice
straight from the heart of vanilla icee-o
By: Jimmy Anquoe
- 10. Seasons by Chris Cornell
Makes you wanna go to the park and think about your ex.
- 9. Defender by Seaweed
Unreal that bands like Candlebox got popular. This band should've been huge and the album this came from (Spanaway) should be considered a 90's classic alongside Dookie and Nevermind!
- 8. Loser by Beck
Classic hook with cool stream of conscienceness lyrics.
- 7. How I Could Just Kill A Man by Cypress Hill
Smooth but fierce rap jam that heralded the stocking cap fashion trend. For real kid!
- 6. Trigger Cut by Pavement
Simply brilliant song craftsmanship, both lyrically and musically.
- 5. Song 2 by Blur
This song will wake you up when Oasis puts you to sleep.
- 4. Cannonball by The Breeders
When my friend was in jail back in '92, he had a Jamaican cellmate who went nuts for this song whenever it played on the radio. Nuff said.
- 3. Home by Naked Raygun
I like the Offspring, Green Day and Rancid, but this is my hands down favorite 90's punks song.
- 2. Theresas Sound World by Sonic Youth
Elegantly chaotic soundscape that never gets old. A must-hear for any true alt-rock fan.
- 1. Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
The initial strike of alternative rock in the 90's. Pulverized shallow metal and teen pop. Here's to history repeating itself.
I know it's early, but my hope is that at least some of these songs would make it on a best of 90's rock CD sometime in the future. Along with anything by Mr. 90's himself....Morrisey!
By: Jillian
- 10. Where It's At by Beck
I got two turntables and a microphone. WHERE IT'S AT.
- 9. This I Promise You by N*SYNC
This is their best song EVAAAA!
- 8. One Sweet Day by Mariah Carey and Boyz II Men
This song is a real tear-jerker :)
- 7. Drop Dead Gorgeous by Republica
I know my ex-boyfriend lies, oh he does it all the time...Yeah, yeah and he's drop dead gorgeous!
- 6. These Are The Times by Dru Hill
I love Sisqo! This is such a romantic song!
- 5. Ice Ice Baby by Vanilla Ice
I used to always say I would marry Vanilla Ice...
- 4. Don't Cry for me, Argentina by Madonna
Try sitting through Cinema class WITHOUT liking this song. Hehe, it's great.
- 3. Breathe by The Prodigy
Great song...I made a great mix with it.
- 2. End of the Road by Boyz II Men
I love slow songs...what can I say?
- 1. Reflections by Christina Aguilera
This song is on Disney's Mulan Soundtrack...I heard it and 7th grade and loved it ever since!
If I had, like, a top 1,000 I could do this right...but I don't. :p

the beasties are some of the all-time greatest musicians by my standards and the way they combine rap, rock, and punk is damned impressive and so is this song.

- 2. jeremy by pearl jam
one of the most dark and powerful songs of the 90's...they actually had to cut the original video because it was too graphic.
- 1. smells like teen spirit by nirvana
name a song that had a greater impact than this one...didn't think so. this song made alternative mainstream and changed music forever.
why were the early 90's so much better than the late 90's?
By: Josh
- 10. All Apologies by Nirvana
Any one who saw the MTV Unplugged saw just how much emotion Kurt Cobain could put into this song
- 9. Evenflow by Pearl Jam
Some of the most powerful lyrics ever
- 8. Heart-shaped Box by Nirvana
They were the greatest...
- 7. Alive by Pearl Jam
These lyrics tell a story better than any book
- 6. Black Hole Sun by Soundgarden
Chris Cornell has the best vocal range ever
- 5. Man in the box by Alice In Chains
Jerry Cantrell is too cool
- 4. Come as you are by Nirvana
Nothing to be said except they are probably the greatest band of all-time
- 3. Creep by Stone Temple Pilots
Great Lyrics, great vocals, great song
- 2. Jeremy by Pearl Jam
Eddie Vedder has the most distinct voice and lyrics ever in any music category
- 1. Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
Seattle grunge created the best music ever. Cobain was a GOD
Seatle Grunge was the greatest and will never die. No other music ever wiped a whole decade of music off the map and none ever will. If all these band were still around there wouldnt be any of this pop music crap
By: Dan
- 10. Heart In Hand by Vertical Horizon
One of their earlier ones, this is amazing, it's hard to pick a favourite Vertical Horizon song but this is really good.
- 9. With Arms Wide Open by Creed
A wonderful song by a great band.
- 8. I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing by Aerosmith
Aerosmith are pretty good, this song is really great, unfortunately though, Armageddon wasn't so good.

Impossible really to pick a favourite song from Mad Season but Rest Stop is awesome.
- 6. Ana's Song (Open Fire) by Silverchair
A great band. A great song.
- 5. 72 Hour Gaze by Taxiride
These guys are great and this one's better than Get Set in my mind. Only just though.

The Offspring are a great band and this is their best song.
- 3. Iris by The Goo Goo Dolls
One of the greats, just great.
- 2. Push by Matchbox 20
The best band ever's best song.
- 1. Smooth by Santana/Rob Thomas
The best ever, one that's just sorta tattoed on my mind like no other.
It's so hard to choose 10 songs out of such a great decade, and there are so many others worth mentioning, Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana (their only good one), Miss You Love by Silverchair, Take A Look Around by Limp Bizkit (their only good one), anything by Matchbox Twenty, Truly Madly Deeply and To The Moon And Back by Savage Garden, Kryptonite by 3 Doors Down, My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion, Blow Up The Pokies by The Whitlams, Get Set by Taxiride, Everything You Want by Vertical Horizon, Come Out And Play by The Offspring, Higher by Creed.... the list just goes on and on.
