Default 90's favorite music thread.

OK all, just a few stipulations in this thread. This is just to post your favorite music from the 90's. Please, do not make it a debate about what group was more influential or more important. This is simply a music appreciation thread, no debates are necessary. Post whatever you want if you feel it needs appreciation.

*PLEASE, post videos in spoiler tags for ease of thread use.

That being said, here are some songs that made the 90's for me:

Honestly, that's what it felt like to grow up in the 90's. I can't imagine anyone growing up in that time and not being a pessimist.

Love music from the 90's. My favorite band was a big player then.

Oasis (I think Champagne Supernova is one of the best songs ever written)
Sound Garden
Rage Against the Machine
Red Hot Chili Peppers
The Wallflowers
Jurassic 5
The Black Crows
Nirvana
...could go on a while.


Somthing the 90's had that I think we are really missing today is solid rock chicks.

Sheryl Crowe
Alanis Morissette
Amanda Marshall

I see your grunge music and raise you some "world music" from 1992.



Seriously though, my dad was addicted to that group. Lots of memories on long road trips....

Rap's Renaissance.

Nas
Biggie
Wu-Tang
G Funk and the West Coast
Outkasts first three albums
Tupac's Me Against the World

Just so much goodness. Basically the entire 2000's was a commercial, look how rich I am, wasteland. Things are coming back around in the last few years though.

I was thinking the other day, with no playoffs happening, we should start a few drafts.

What I've gathered so far is that I'm far more depressive than most of you. For some reason the darkest music of that decade resonates with me.

For example, this is the first dance song at our wedding for my wife and I:

Weird!!! Enigma was awesome, Enya, not so much



It also allowed us to get Canadian versions like Delerium



which was of course remixed by Tiesto into a ridiculously huge hit

Not that I really liked this band (or this song), to me it is the definitive pop-rock radio song from the 90s:

^Much, much darker than the poppy tone would suggest.

... although, Enya did have this song, which is hauntingly beautiful and was remixed into a couple popular songs ... but this was the 80's

What I loved about 90s music was that was when I started discovering music and music hasn't been able to blow my mind like it did in the 90s. Here's some of the songs that blew me away and completely challenged my perception of what music could be

NSFW - lots of these songs have cussing.

Greed Day - When I come around ("is this punk? I'm into punk, #### every other genre of music)
Spoiler!


Rancid - Time Bomb ("what a minute, is this punk? more punkier punk?")
Spoiler!


Metallica - One ("Did I say I'm into punk, because I'm totally into metal")
Spoiler!


NIN - Head like a hole ("Maybe I'm into whatever the #### this is)
Spoiler!


XTC - Dear God ("can you even say that on TV? Am in trouble for even listening to this")
Spoiler!


Bjork - Human Behaviour ("is this music, wtf is going on? I can't look away)
Spoiler!


Radiohead - Paranoid Android ("this is so dark and so weird.")
Spoiler!


Prodigy - Firestarter ("Is this techno? this is much better than the mortal combat soundtrack. Look at his ####in' hair.")
Spoiler!


Peaches - #### the pain away ("won't someone help this poor women")
Spoiler!


Refused - New Noise ("Techno + punk + death metal vocals = YEEEAAAHHH!")
Spoiler!

Jesus Christ...that's an exceptional list. Well done sir (or madame).
