Hey, I was going by a strict rule of no repeats, I just can't repeat songs in lists. If I was going to repeat it'd be all of Bossanova + U Mass, Planet of Sound, Letter to Memphis, Subbacultcha, Distance Equals Rate Times Time and Motorway to Roswell.

That's a better list. First list was good too though.

How about these added to the list:

"Sweet Jane" remake by Cowboy Junkies
"Not an Addict" - K's Choice
"Here we go" - Stakka Bo
"All Around the World" - ATC
"Seether" - Veruca Salt
"Down by the Water" - PJ Harvey
"Kiss Me" - Sixpence None the Richer
"Tubthumping" - Chumbawamba
"Groove is in the Heart" - Dee Lite
"The Freshman" - The Verve Pipe
"One Headlight" - Wallflowers

Most of them were 1-2 major hit wonders.

"You Get What You Give" and "No Rain" were probably my favourite one hit wonders from the 90s.

Even though it was their only real hit I hate applying the 'one-hit wonder' tag to them. They released two very solid albums that both deserve more recognition.

Some of my favourite songs from the 90's

I define one-hit wonders by popularity, although admittedly I don't know anything else by them.

Well, VH1 will call ANYTHING a one hit wonder. However, the two that really piss me off are Living Colour which, for the first two albums(only I've heard), was utterly brilliant, and Faith No '****ing' More... which it's like... Really, they consider Faith No More a one hit wonder because of 'Epic'. So, I'm assuming the massive success of 'Angel Dust' which I'm 90% sure was a platinum selling album internationally(back when selling platinum meant something) meant nothing to them.
