Screw Creed!..this is how you do christian rock!
- 9. The World I Know by Collective Soul
Such a good song
- 8. Aeroplane by Red Hot Chili Peppers
I hate Janes Addiction with a passion, but for this song Navarro was rocking...Its simply their best song.
- 7. Cemetary Gates by Pantera
It takes guts to deviate from one's normal musical style, it payed of big time for Pantera here.
- 6. Zero by Smashing Pumpkins
Hardest song ever from MR. Corgan and company, great lyrics and tremendous instrumentals.
- 5. Jesus To A Child/ Careless Whisper by George Michael
This man doesn't get the respect he deserves...these are two of the most amazing songs ever.
- 4. Counting Blue Cars by Dishwalla
Great song
- 3. Amazed by The Offspring
A truly great song, from the greatest punk band of all time ..thats right i said it!
- 2. Pushit by Tool
What can I say?...and Epic..Tool is magical, Maynard's voice beutiful..it lends truth to any lyrics, and Danny Carey is one of the greatest drummers of all time. This song takes you on a journey.
- 1. Losing My Religion by Rem
Simply the greatest song of all time, so of course it's numer one of the 90's There is absolutely no song that has so much wide appeal, pop appeal, with rock greatness. I get goosebums listening to it.
You'll Notice I don't have any Nirvana. Lets face it Cobain couldn't sing, and their music wasn't timeless, it was a fad. Alice in Chains was a much better grunge band, and the loss of Layne was ten times the tragedy that Cobain's selfish act was. ....TOOL And Offspring are clearly the best 2 bands of the last 15 yrs. Honorable mention to the great Metallica

Haunting melody made this song one of the most popular of the decade.
- 9. Ants Marching by Dave Matthews Band
Gotta love Dave and this jammin beat.
- 8. 500 Miles by The Proclaimers
Great, offbeat song that we all know the words to, by a smooth Scottish duo.
- 7. Semi-charmed Kind Of Life by Third Eye Blind
One of my favorite songs of all time, a great beat with deep lyrics. Gotta love a song that can pull off high-pitched "do do do's" 3EB was a 90s rock staple and they are continuing into the new millenium with their unique, listener friendly sound.
- 6. Save Tonight by Eagle Eye Cherry
Gravely singing and an upbeat melody make this song one of my favorites.
- 5. Runaround by Blues Traveler
You all know this song with the funky harmonica playing. Brought a whole new dimension to 90s rock.
- 4. Inside Out by Eve 6
Some of the best lyrics ever written, but presented in an upbeat, funky rock beat.
- 3. Breakfast At Tiffany's by Deep Blue Something
A radio hit of the mid 90s, when you think of 90s rock, you think of this song.
- 2. Wonderwall by Oasis
You can feel the emotion in this great acoustic melody. With a nod to "Champagne Supernova" I think this is Oasis' best song.
- 1. Closing Time by Semisonic
This is the perfect example of alt rock in the 90s. One of the all time greatest songs...
Props to these great bands: Nirvana, Collective Soul, Fastball, Counting Crows, The Presidents of the USA, Sister Hazel, The Gin Blossoms, Live, Matchbox 20, Blind Melon...this list goes on. I know I included mostly alt rock songs, but its hard to narrow the 90s music down into 10 songs. 90s rock was one of the greatest genres in music history. Thanks to all for posting songs that bring back such great memories.
By: Jeff Serwatowski
- 10. It's My Life by Bon Jovi
A hit out of nowhere that summoned the resurrection of one of the biggest bands of the 80's.... not to mention it was overplayed beyond comparison.
- 9. Wonderwall by Oasis
Nice good slow moody song...
- 8. Ruby Soho by Rancid
An MTV anthem in the mid-nineties, pushing the underground punk band into mainstream.

Overall great song......
- 6. Guerilla Radio by Rage Against The Machine
After ten years of being a band, it was the last single to be released from the widely popular Battle of Los Angeles.
- 5. Don't Want to Miss a Thing by Aerosmith
One of the biggest rock bands first number 1 hit... congradulations guys.
- 4. You Outta Know by Alanis Morrisette
The ultimate song of the feminist movement, that was formed after "grunge" lead singers started it.
- 3. Good Riddance by Green Day
I am sure Billy Joe didn't anticipate writing the song that will forever be a graduation song.
- 2. Alive by Pearl Jam
A modern day "Satisfaction" if you will. Nirvana being the "bigger band" similar to the Beatles... while Pearl Jam having the hits similar to the Stones.
- 1. Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
As much as i would hate to admit it, it did set the standards for everything past 1991.
