Music Mondays #5: Best of the 90's!
My favorite decade of music by far is the 90's. I know people are faithful to their 80's rock, but I was raised on 90's rock, or rather I raised myself on it, but more on that another time. My parents like hip hop and r&b mostly( my dad does love Lee Ann Womack though, lol), so when I stumbled upon rock music this is what I heard first. Now my initial plan was a usual 10 song list. Somehow my list ended up at 40+ plus amazing songs that I've wheedled down to 25! This is what I listened to as I read Goosebumps or played Pokemon on my Gameboy Advance. I miss those days. You'll see a decent amount of these are cult favorites, but they truly are some of my favorites and they'll pop up again when I do favorites of all time one day. They're just that good. I did try to pick a few that aren't as widely popular though.
*If you're wondering why there's a picture of Eminem and Dr. Dre, it's because I love them, and I wanted you guys to have something to look at other than words!*
1. Tonic - If You Could Only See
2. Vertical Horizon -Everything You Want
3. The Verve - Bittersweet Symphony
4. Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit
5. R.E.M. - Losing My Religion
6. Weezer - Say Ain't So
7. Gin Blossoms - Hey Jealousy
8. The Cranberries - Linger
9. Matchbox Twenty - 3am
10. Mack Morrison - Return of the Mack
11. Tracy Chapman - Fast Car
12. Blink 182 - What's My Age Again
13. Dr. Dre ft. Eminem - Forgot About Dre
14. The Fugees - Ready or Not
15. Red Hot Chili Peppers
16. Dave Matthews Band - Crash Into Me
17. Natalia Imbruglia - Torn
18. Goo Goo Dolls - Iris
19. The Fugees - Killing Me Softly
20. Oasis - Wonderwall
21. Semisonic - Closing Time
22. No Doubt - Don't Speak
23. Aerosmith - Don't Want to Miss a Thing
24. The Cranberries - Zombie
25. Sublime - What I Got
Now of course, this isn't the end all be all of lists. I just had to stop because i was already super carried away. But ugh, i love 90's music so much. There's so much more. Others would include everything Green Day, Alanis Morisette and Matchbox Twenty. You'll also notice very little pop music. It's because I prefer rock to everything else, and I will be doing a favorite pop songs post, so they'll get their shine in due time. I hope you guys liked this post! It was my favorite one yet!

How awesome! Another 90's music lover!! I will definitely be doing more!!
DeleteThese are some great picks. I hadn't heard the majority of these before so thanks for giving me some perfect music to make my math homework a little more enjoyable, haha. My favourite was Oasis and The Fugees. xx
ReplyDeleteI glad you found new music. I love finding new music, you can never have enough. ♥
DeleteBlink 182 and Alanis Morissette. Looove. Definitely going to have a 90s music revival when I get home from work tonight!
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy it! A lot of times I chill out and write blog posts and I listen to 90's greatness!
DeleteI heard "Fast Car" on the radio while driving home from work the other day. It's so nice to hear songs from this decade. I grew up on this music too, and while I enjoy 80's hairbands, this was such an amazing decade for music. It brings back so many good memories, but I guess that's why other generations enjoy their music so much too.

You're lucky! I never hear fast car on the radio!
