[pain cake]

Boo hoo, it's based on song popularity and audience appeal so that list looks pretty damn spot on to me

[batman1987]

Well, you know this list is bullshit considering hanson is in the top 20. Come on the whole song was "mmmm bop" over and over!!

[angel of death]

What the fuck?

No nine inch nails?

And, no Guns?

[RJ88]

What the fuck?

No nine inch nails?

And, no Guns?

no shit

it's vh1 though

[metallic ko]

Everytime I hear something about the great songs of the 90's, I always think of Bitter Sweet Symphony. I didnt look for it on the list, but if it isnt on there, it should be.

Great Song.

It isn't on there, though.

Instead, we have Nelson, and Billy Ray Cyrus.

[pain cake]

Obviously there's not a lot there that I would consider quintessential like Bitter Sweet Symphony by the Verve, Save Tonight by Eagle Eyed Cherry, Today by Smashing Pumpkins, Killing in the Name by Rage, Smooth by Santana and Rob Thomas, Gangster's Paradise by Coolio, Rockin' in the Free World by Neil Young, AC/DC's Thunderstruck! But it's VH1, I just watched a top 20 songs of the past 25 years by them and it was like identical with a few from the 80's. I don't know why people complain so much about these, it's not like they're meant to be taken seriously.

Exactly.. where the hell is November Rain??!!! Damn it!

Not even Dont cry or You could be mine..

Weird, NR is always part of any 90's compilation of hits.

I guess Rico Suave was more important than NR haha..Grrrr

[Patience 4 Axl]

Backstreet Boys at #3! Did the 90's really suck that much??

[JeanGenie]

No Live Forever??

[Black Sabbath]

Shit list as usual...

Nurr-Vaan-Uh doesn't deserve number one...maybe...99.

[december pain]

Dude, that song made an underground genre mainstream.... I'd say that's pretty damn good.

Ok, maybe not 99, but I don't think it deserved 1...and I sure as Hell don't think the Backstreet Boys deserved number 3 either.

Admit it, you liked those songs back then.

I'm only 14.

But, I'm not saying they're horrible...but they don't deserve to be in the Top 5!

That's my opinion atleast...

[angel of death]

You can't honestly say, that you didn't expect to see SLTS at #1.

That was a given. Everything else had a shot at #2.

[steve-o]

47. Marky Mark and The Funky Bunch - Good Vibrations

84. Snow - Informer

100. Gerardo - Rico Suave

three* worst songs ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They can't be serious

Marky Mark- good vibrations I've never seen a gay porno before, but if i had to imagine what one would be like, it would be the first five seconds of this video

Snow -Informer just terrible.............

the male back up dancers are juts who I imagined what the guys fucking Mark Whalberg in the aforementioned gay porno look like, and dance like. Edited December 15, 2007 by steve-o

[Gallagher Rose]

horrible list..it was made by some american idiot from VH1..

[Mr-brownstone]

No smashing pumpkins what a shame.

[Lithium]

Nurr-Vaan-Uh doesn't deserve number one...maybe...99.

Well, that just shows your lack of knowledge in music history.

Just because you don't like Nirvana, you have no reason to deny their impact, their influence and their importance to music.

[Pico]

A list like this without Pulp's Common People and/or Blur's Girls & Boys is a joke.

Hanson? GTFO...

[UYIllusion]

I don't know about this list. You Could Be Mine and November Rain were the top videos of 1991 and 1992 on MTV. I would think they would be in the Top 100 of the decade.

I think the list only wanted to focus on alternative rock...think about it, there is nothing from Get a Grip, which was freaking huge.
