What are your top ten favorite songs from the 90s?

• 10. Luv U Still by Praga Khan
  Had a massive influence on the development of bands such as The Prodigy. The melody line of this track still tears open your skin and is a real rage-feeder. Adrenaline risk!
• 9. Rhythm Is A Dancer by Snap
  Still an evergreen at parties. Marked the beginnings of eurodance.
• 8. Eins Zwei Polizei by Mo-do
  This song is still hilarious because back in the nineties everyone thought it was kind of cool but actually it's really daft. Entertaining value guaranteed!
• 7. Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
  Of course "Come as you are" is better but as I indicate further down the list, I select the most known and most symbolical tracks.
• 6. Age Of Love by Age Of Love
  One of the first real trance classics. Shows some influences from the Art of Noise. Woohoo. From the days before trance was hypercommercialised and eurodance became eurotrash.
• 5. Wonderwall by Oasis
  I hate Oasis and their attitude but this song is great. There's no point denying it ;).
• 4. Self Esteem by The Offspring
  Keeps being a great hit at parties despite it being almost ten years old now. Of course, there are better songs than this one but "Self Esteem" is also a definite nineties classic. Undeniable.
• 3. No Good (start The Dance) by The Prodigy
  As you might have guessed, I'm heavily into electronics so this list will be a little biased. However, no one can deny that the nineties were the decade in which the electronics scene matured and became really important.
• 2. The Twilight Zone by 2 Unlimited
  I can't tell how many times this raving melody line has been plagiarised by other bands. But this is the real stuff! Check it out for the daft raps and the absolutely powerful melody.
• 1. Insomnia by Faithless
  Probably one of the greatest fusion bands in the nineties with a musical repertoire far greater than smashing dance hits alone. There are better songs that Insomnia but this is the most known and the most 90's-esque one.

I'm mainly into electronics :D.

• 1. Live Forever by Oasis
  Brings back memories of jr high

i feel that theres alot of other bands besides these ones i loved in the 90s and they will always be my favorite decade in music. some including TLC, No Doubt, The Smashing Pumpkins, Fiona Apple, Blur, Bush, Radiohead, Belly, Collective Soul, Oasis, Counting Crows, The Cranberries, Hole, Ben Folds Five, Poe, Everclear, Fountains of Wayne, Nada Surf, Green Day, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Third Eye Blind, New Radicals, Beck, Aerosmith, Natalie Imbruglia, Jewel, man there are so many others. it's sad that music these days will never be the same and that bands that we grew up with in the 90s are breaking up because of all these teenybopping lovin avril fans and trl takin over the scene. this decade sucks, and not only with music.

• 10. The Roof Is On Fire by The BloodHoung Gang
  Funny band, great cd, "One Fierce Beer Coaster" Buy it! You won't be disappointed!
• 9. Seether by Veruca Salt
  Can't fight the Seether! Great girl band in the 90's. Too bad they broke up!
• 8. Molly by Sponge
  One of the best songs Sponge ever came out with. "16 candles down the drain"
• 7. Cumbersome & Water's Edge by Seven Mary Three
  Couldn't decide on the 2 songs, both are awesome. I love those guys!
• 6. Closer by Nine Inch Nails
  I wanna f@*# you like an animal! Need I say more?
• 5. Black by Pearl Jam
  Another 90's staple cd, Pearl Jam "Ten" Go, NOW, BUY IT!
• 4. Little Things by Bush
  I love the whole "16STONE" CD... It's a must-have!
• 3. More Human Than Human by White Zombie
  This is the best song! I went to the concert! I couldn't move my head the next day!
• 2. Lighting Crashes by Live
  Mellow, smooth, and good for you to!
• 1. Heart Shaped Box by Nirvana
  One of the bands greatest songs. I want to eat your cancer when you turn black. Hey, wait, I got a new complaint!

The greatest band METALLICA, I love every song on every CD. I couldn't see putting Metallica on every number! I love you guys! Everybodys musical tastes are different, there was alot of great music in the 90's. I think that was the best 10 years in music. There will never be another 10 years so full of great, inspiritational, and from-the-soul music again like that. Now we are being held down and candy-coated soda pop,bubblegum, repeat this song 8 times every hour on the radio crappy music is being shoved down our throat. Grunge is gone,welcome all skaters. I will miss the Pearl Jam,Nirvana,and Stone Temple Pilots era. It makes me sad.
