There are so many excellent Pop songs from the 90's! Among my favourites are "Enjoy the Silence" by Depeche Mode and "The One" by Elton John.

Enjoy the Silence was early 1990, so those who say the 90s started in 91 wouldn't include it. And most of Elton John's best tunes were done before the 90s.

Someone couldn't pick a song for the Backstreet Boys, well how about Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely?

No, not that one.

My favorite Backstreet Boys song that was number 1 material "Everybody (Backstreet's Back)

My all time favorite BSB song has to be "The Call" though.

I would say that my favorite nineties songs (and honestly they could fall into a variety of "top hits of the nineties" lists or compilations). Some of them have been named but not all I think.

White Town - "If I was your woman" (odd little ditty that)
U96 - Pretty much anything by them but Das Boot was still their best and most creative IMHO.
Blind Melon - "No Rain"
Barenaked Ladies - Again, anything by them
Blur - "Girls and Boys" , "Song 2"
Placebo - "Pure Morning"
Smashing Pumpkins - Again everything
Len - "If you steal my sunshine"
Meja - "All 'Bout the Money"
Natalie Imbrugulia - "Torn"
Spin Doctors - "Two Princes"
Crash Test Dummies - Anything by them, the lead singer's voice just was a bit unique
Scatman John - Anything
Ini Kamoze - "Here comes the Hotstepper"
Soul Asylum - Anything
Wycleaf Jean or anything by the Fugies
Faithless - "Insomnia"
Betty Boo - "Doin the Doo"
Guru Josh - "Infinity"
Paula Abdul - "Rush Rush", "The Promise of a New Day"
Savage Garden - "Truly, Madly, Deeply"
The Wannadies - "You Me" song
Martika - "Love Thy will be done"
Kelly Family - "Roses of red"
New Radikals - "You only get what you give"
Weezer - "Buddy Holly"
Rob Zombie - "Living Dead Girl"
Cowboy Junkies - Their version of "Sweet Jane"
K's Choice - "Not an Addict"
Sin with Sebastian - "Golden Boy"
Right Said Fred - "I'm too Sexy"
Hole - "Violet"
Manic Street Preachers - Anything
Radiohead - "Fake Plastic Trees"
Suede - "Trash"
Shawn Colvin - "Rockaby"
Heather Nova - Anything
Jeff Buckley - Anything
Bjork - Anything
Garbage - "Stupid Girl"

That's a few. The Cure's "Wish" album and Radiohead's first album would also be put in here somewhere if there were a top albums of the nineties thread (which there might be, I have not looked yet). And that is my rather long list (which is most likely much longer).

The songs I was most excited about on the radio in the nineties:

Savage Garden - I Want You

Fastball - The Way

This was one of my absolute favorites. I kind of dug the dark backstory, where it was about elderly people just taking off...possibly ironic, but much after this song was released, when I was in college, my great uncle got pissed off that they wanted to take his driver's license away from him. He took off in a huff in his car, ended up next to a lake the next state over, drove up the horse trails, his car broke down...and then he took off walking down the trail and they found him several days later. In ANOTHER weird turn of events, I had no idea where he'd actually been found, but he'd been found, apparently less than 100 yards from the campsite my friends and I had been going to for months. I found that out when I made my mother drop me off to camp because I didn't feel like driving out there and paying for parking, and she said exactly where he'd been found...it was the part of the creek literally right outside of our campsite. We have to walk about a mile to get to the site. I was skeeved out. Anyway. Yeah.

Nirvana - Heart Shaped Box

Jewel - You Were Meant For Me

Tonic - If You Could Only See

The Wallflowers - One Headlight

The Verve Pipe - The Freshmen

WAY before I was a freshman. Even when this song came out, I was SO far away from being a freshman in high school, but I loved this song. I remember specifically recording this one to cassette from the radio.

Blues Traveler - Run Around

Radiohead - Creep
