What are some of your favorite songs from the 90s?

I recently heard Stacy's mom on the radio, and I was reminded of all the songs I listened to as a kid.

Damn, I could go on forever. Those are just off the top of my head and limited to one track per band with even a limited scope genre-wise.

hmm I was hoping for more posts :-P

Anything from Jawbreaker really.

A whole bunch of east coast hip hop, id rather not post them all.

" hmm I was hoping for more posts :-P "

I just miss grunge in general.
 
  

Surprised to see Nirvana haven't been mentioned. When 90s music comes to mind, they are always the first group I think of. Also this thread needs more Pavement.

I gotta agree with Underachiever007 on Radioheads OK Computer and The Bends as well as Smashing Pumpkins 1979 (really anything from Smashing Pumpkins)

Favorite albums of the 90s: 
Blood Sugar Sex Magik - Red Hot Chili Peppers 
Ten - Pearl Jam 
Flood - They Might Be Giants 
OK Computer - Radiohead

Happy day- uncanny alliance. As for real picks: rage or b.I.g.

My favorit 90's albums are: Zooropa and Achtung Baby-U2, Slanted and Enchanted-Pavement, Mellon Collie and The Infinite Sadness and Siamese Dream-Smashing Pumpkins, In Utero-Nirvana, Pinkerton-Weezer, Homework-Daft Punk, The Chronic, Dr Dre, Loveless-My Bloody Valentine, OK Computer-Radiohead, The Soft Bulletin-The Flaming Lips. I could go on and on.

right now im really into Aint No Fun (If the Hommies Cant Have None) by Nate, Snoop, Kurupt and Warren G.  there was a time in my life where i listened to that song often and i went back to it after the news of Nate Dogg's death.  However, my absolute favourite song from the 90's is Old School by 2Pac.  it's a really great song.  Pac talks about rappers from the past and it has a great feel to it.  he recorded it before he signed to Death Row so it feels more pure and less mainstream (im saying that cause all he talked about when he was in Death Row was sex, money and cars.)    

Aeroplane- Red Hot Chili Peppers 
Black- Pearl Jam 
Hurt- Nine Inch Nails 
Black Hole Sun- Soundgarden 
Don't Follow- Alice in Chains 
Serve the Servants / Polly / About a Girl- Nirvana 
Sexx Laws- Beck 
P.L.U.C.K. / War?- System of a Down 
Sober- Tool 
Hey Man, Nice Shot- Filter 
Say It Ain't So- Weezer 
Sour Girl- Stone Temple Pilots 
Wherever I May Roam / Fuel- Metallica 
Glycerine- Bush 
Pull Me Under- Dream Theater 
Stacked Actors- Foo Fighters 
Basket Case- Green Day 
November Rain- Guns N' Roses 
Painkiller- Judas Priest 
Some Might Say- Oasis 
Mama, I'm Coming Home- Ozzy Osbourne 
Story of My Life- Social Distortion 
Santeria- Sublime 
More Human Than Human- White Zombie 
Night Goat- Melvins 
Today / 1979 / Bullet With Butterfly Wings- Smashing Pumpkins  

I love '90s music :D

Stacy's mom isn't from the 90s it's from 2003 and didn't really become a hit until 2004. 2004 isn't really early 2000s so you might as well change this whole thread! "

If you remember the 90s you weren't really there maaaannn!!
 
no I dunno, I honestly could not come up with lists of songs I listened to because of a shitty memory but I'm pretty sure most of it was hiphop. I know these 3 albums got the most play:

Afraid to Shoot Strangers - Iron Maiden 
Time Stands Still (At the Iron Hill) - Blind Guardian
Ett & noll - Bo Kaspers Orkester

" Sultans of Swing - Dire Straits "

Anything made by Nirvana or Neutral Milk Hotel during the decade. Oh, I really like Daft Punk's Homework as well. Shit, there was a lot of good music in the 90s.

It's a pretty fucked up decade for music industry. Nontheless, there was a hidden gem... 
 
  

The 90's were amazing. I could give you a list of about 100 songs but this song is always worth sharing.

That's a great song... but it's from the 70s. "

  Edit: Whoops, this song came out in the year 2000... never the less, Nsync is still the best band of the 90s

That 4 Non Blondes song that they played ALL the goddamn time so you were forced to like it whether you like it or not. 
 
  

Everything from The Black Album - Metallica
Everything from  Ten - Pearl Jam 
Everything from  Countdown to Extinction - Megadeth 
Everything from La Sexorcisto Devil Music Vol. 1 - White Zombie
Everything from Astro Creep 2000 - White Zombie
Everything from Facelift - Alice in Chains
Everything from Dirt - Alice in Chains 
Hunger Strike - Temple of the Dog
River of Deceit - Mad Season
   

Neutral Milk Hotel! 
 
ps. most of the stuff in that original post isn't from the 90's...

No Surprises - Radiohead 
Only In Dreams - Weezer 
Don't Look Back in Anger - Oasis 
Gold Soundz - Pavement 
 
If you're letting in early 2000s, throw in Hard to Explain by the Strokes, I am Trying to Break Your Heart by Wilco, and Kid A by Radiohead.

I think this is from the 90's, it's nostalgia inducing at least.
