During the discussion in Sishir's everything 80's rant, I brought up the point that 90's music sucked. I've now decided to modify that statement to "a lot of 90's music sucked but their rock (pop rock, soft rock) was actually pretty good" List some of the good ROCK songs from the 90's. Please no rap, no Britney, no Celine Dion. Just rock, I don't care if its pop rock, soft, hard, whatever. and please no grunge. we're not 15 year old emos. and yes, combined with my classical music thread, I am looking for more songs to add to the trusty MP3 player My favorites...and if some of them of pop, well then just call me Judy. NOTE: I wil update this list as people add songs that I like =) Duncan Sheik - Barely Breathing Verve Pipe - The Freshmen Wallflowers - One Headlight Tal Bachman - She's So High (I heard htis one in 1999, so it makes the cut) Live - Lightning Crashes Jars of Clay - Flood Weezer - Buddy Holly Marcy's Playground - Sex and Candy Soul Asylum - Runaway Train Bush - Glycerine Smashing Pumpkins - Butterly with Bullet Wings(?)
Gin Blossom - Hey Jealousy, Allison Road, Til I Hear it from you, etc. Goo Goo Dolls - Iris Greenday Offspring RB has some good music in the 90's: Babyface Boyz II Men Toni Braxton Unfortunately at the end was when the "Boy Bands" came in: Nsync Backstreetboys 98 Degrees Westlife C Note
Counting Crows - August and Everything After Mr. Jones Round here Ana begins Rainking i think they are highly underrated.

No discussion on 90's music is complete without a reference to the Toadies. Rubberneck all decade album of the 90's Its weird they are playing 3-4 shows on their reunion tour and one of them is in Houston.

Fishbone - The Reality of My Surroundings Flaming Lips - Transmissions From the Satellite Heart Reverend Horton Heat - The Full Custom Gospel Sounds Dinosaur Jr. - Green Mind Public Enemy - Fear of a Black Planet Sonic Youth - Goo / Dirty Liz Phair - Exile in Guyville A Tribe Called Quest - The Low End Theory Butthole Surfers - Independent Worm Saloon Jon Spencer Blues Explosion- Orange
