best song of the 90s

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

My top five favorite songs from the 90s:

1. 'Holy Wars... Punishment Due' - Megadeth

(Can't find a link to. 28 minute song)

4. 'Ma Meeshka Moskwoz' Mr.Bungle

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.
