  • good list :)

  • yeah counting crows, but i am disappointed no city and color, no alanis morrisette.

  • Comment removed

  • No Radiohead? Smashing Pumpkins? And... above all else, how can you forget TUPAC?!?!

  • @nte604 Fuck Tupac.

  • @Tails04 Well F*ck you too then

  • @nte604 number 8 is Radiohead....

  • @thefinnman92 Oops. My bad.

  • Snap! (<-pun intended ^O^) omggggg ur the biggest hater of allll tiiiiiime!!!!!

    LOL i got like 3/4 the way thru this, and EVERRRRRRY song on here was my shitttt!!!!

    LOL i repeat: H8r!!!!

  • Tracy chapman GG!

    

  • just to let u know The Verve were not one hit wonders that had a few massive songs!

  • Good stuff, how about Len-Steal my sunshine and Whitetown-Your woman..Lisa Loeb rocks!

  • signing on the dole

  • What about Silverchair and Massive Attack?

  • i thought that one too about kurt .. what would kurt doing or what would kurt looks like today if he didnt commit suicide

  • you basically avoided every single quality band of the 90s. What about the RHP, AIC, Soundgarden and many more? Why all the one hit wonders? Who the hell thinks of most of these songs in retrospect anyways?

  • was limp bisket actually the 90?S?!?!!

  • ok you are a hater u had all the good songs as red you are eigther a old person or just have really bad taste

  • awesome line-up homz:)i was born in 1990 i kno:)

  • the 2 most liked comments are bullshit. I have my own taste of music and you guys do also but nirvana almost defined 90's music.. don't even deny it. the point is, is that he brought REAL music to the charts. do you know any other 90's band that would take over #1 spot over michael jackson??

  • apprently being from south boston and your not irish?...have you ever been to boston?

  • ghhjkh

  • how are house of pain not irish? Quite frankly, um Megan hehe, this video sucks.

  • This video is a waste of time

  • Your taste is in your ass.

  • Anyone who listens to Counting Crows doesn't have a right to make judgements on anything, let alone music.

  • Me, I like "In blooms" better then smell like teen spirit. In bloom really got me into nirvana.

  • #5. Also etched into my memory. Was playing on the radio just moments after my daughter was born. Terrific song. :D

  • I love mother fuckin Blind Melon

  • i like godsmack

  • smells like teen spirit really pissed me off being a huge nirvana fan and everyone being all have you heard that one song about deodorant? No im kidding it was like no one knew who they were before that song just like metallicas black album. god damn radio. Bleech is still my fav.

  • i totally need some 90's songs

  • cobain wasted hes life where was perl jam .tool. and S.T.P .....great vid do well done

  • watch?v=46CNp89_52Y

  • No, no1 is BS sorry but no. I hated that song, and I liked every song on this video... Sorry, but I don't think a guy WHINING in an un-understand voice, about something POINTLESS with random drum and guitar SMASHING, is a hit song...

  • the verve.. one hit wonder?

  • The Verve and the Verve Pipe are two different bands... But you are thinking of the right one, you just got the wrong name. They had a few albums and there were quite a few hits. My favourite was the sequel to Bittersweet Symphony, The drugs don't work, with got just as much radio time.

  • The Verve Pipe didn't have just one hit - they had several hits from that album - it was just the one that people most remember because of the movie Cruel Intentions.

    To say that Kurt Cobain could have done great things is ignorant because he did do great things with music/and still continues to inspire people with his music even after his death.

    I know this was all your opinion, but still..

  • Yeah um.. How old are you? You should be saying important things about the songs rather than Oh no thank you and Just dumb?

  • Sponge "Human Wreckage" is one of my 90's Faves

  • Also, Oasis weren't trying to be the Beatles. If you read the story behind the album "What's the story morning glory" you would know that Liam actually wanted to write songs that sounded a certain way because they wanted to make a huge album. They purposely wrote songs that way. How about Pearl jam, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Jeff Buckley!?, Alice in Chains, Smashing Pumpkins, Bush, Stone temple pilots.

  • That's cool you have an opinion - everyone's entitled to them, but I have to say the following. Marcy Playground were not a one hit wonder band. They just didn't have "commercial" radio play of their other songs. Also, to say that Kurt Cobain could have done great things, c'mon! He only shaped the sound of a generation and was in the biggest band in the world in the 90s...yeah spose that isn't much. If he had lived, I honestly think Nirvana would have broken up soon after anyway.

  • at a quick glance i thought it said "jump around - house of PAM" oops...

  • Fast Car was released in 1988.

  • Fast Car was actually released in 1988.

  • obviously you were a fan of faggot rock back then, alice in chains anyone? pantera? not even 1 grunge song man

  • The Verve One Hit Wonder?

  • You want to know why so many people idolize Nirvana? It's not cause they're amazing, they're not, Kurt himself copped to that. It's cause they ended at the height of their popularity. They were a decent band with better than average songs. As soon as Kurt offed himself, he locked in their status as a 'Martyr band' and forged a fanatical following.

  • Kurt was usless you fucking fruit cake mother fucker. plus the shit you wrote about every band wa pretty much retarded.

  • So much hate on this video...

  • youre supposed to criticize music not appearances

  • eww oasis xD hahaha

  • lol

  • I can respect your opinions. I really can. But Counting Crows?????? Really??? More like Counting Crap!! I don't know who was worse, them or Hootie.

  • Opinion. i love nirvana and smells like teen spirit is a great song, but i don't think its the best. In my opinion, come out and play is the best 90s song by the offspring.

  • so much better music out there

  • i prefer linger rather than zombie, and i was sure u would show us linger =P (pity it wasn't)

  • Great songs, 90's was the last of good music, and the last of the good times.

  • "Baby Got Back" was bad because it has sexy stuff. Oh noez sex!

    Rap is terrible!!

    Godsmack was bad because the name has God in it and could be insulting (but I don't really know, tee hee).

    I like that God song but the nose ring was bad.

    I headbang to Semisonic!!!1

    "Creep" makes me jump around! :D

    "Fast Car" was totes a 90's song.

    Kurt Cobain HAD potential, and COULD have done great things, guys.

    That's basically the gist of this dumbass video...

  • the transition between "fast car" and "wonderwall" almost made me pee myself

  • Fail much?

  • Did you call "The Verve" a One Hit Wonder? Wow!! Ignorance at it's highest!

  • A 90s "essential" music list without half of the essential music from the decade... fail

  • I put Nirvana in the same category as Elvis and The Beatles. They were the first to get famous by doing something different. Just because they were the first to get famous doesn't make them the best. As far as grunge goes, I think Pearl Jam and Soundgarden are a lot better. At least you can understand what the hell Eddie Vedder and Chris Cornell are saying >_> Honorable mention goes to Alice in Chains, as well.

  • I am sorry but Fast Cars id from the 80s.

  • i used to love "smells like teen spirit". and then i read the lyrics. wtf??? made no sense whatsoever. for the chorus its like he just flipped to random pages in the dictionary and pointed to words and then threw them in there.

  • whats the name of the song in the very begening 0:00 ?

  • HOLY CRAP....Fast car was sung by a woman? O.o

  • @sureqthirtyseven And so I go watch Tracey in a video singing live and she sounds nothing like a man. How could I think it was sung by a man this whole time lol

  • And so I go watch Tracey in a video singing live and she sounds nothing like a man. How could I think it was sung by a man this whole time lol

  • Personally, if Kurt cobain didnt commit suicide he wouldnt be cemented like he is now. he would have faded away with the whole grunge era. He was talented. Not saying he wasn't. But a fish can't live out of water. unless your one of those mud fish. hmm. maybe kurt cobain would have been a mud fish.

  • @7ygrr sometimes i think that too. but hey, if he really did die the way everyone thinks he does thats serious dedication

  • @7ygrr Kurt was the muddiest mudfish ever to roam this earth, and don't you ever forget it!

  • We must me close to another era of good music again... We have suffered through the 2000s!

  • Vagina rock sucks!

  • way to start it off with blur !!

  • How can you call anything by godsmack "Embarassing"?

    

  • KRISS KROSS ISNT EMBARASSING!!!

    I MISSED DA BUS! that shit is CLASSIC

  • NOSTALGIA

  • Wow.

  • and where the FUCK are the Red Hot Chili Peppers????

  • good songs but terrible subtitles

  • "Baby Got Back" and "Jump Around" are embarrassing!? I listen to Yes and even I like those songs! D:<

    I forgot about "Closing Time," thank you for that. And "Fast Car."

    You know, "Homeworld (The Ladder)" came out in 1999. It's not really "90's music" though. Still a great song. "Kernkraft 400" came out in '99, also! :D *Whoa ohohoh oh oh*

  • Fake.

  • My favorite kind of music is early alternative which took place entirely in the 90's. Bands such as Nirvana, Linkin park, and green day were the ones that started genres such as Grunge, electric rock, and an exception of scream-o. i dot care what people say 90'S WAS THE NEST DECADE FOR ROCK N ROLL

  • No Pearl Jam? No Sublime? No Soundgarden? No STP? wtf?

  • @hugskisses8 "The Freshman" was a song by THE VERVE PIPE who is NOT the same band as THE VERVE. The Verve is English and The Verve Pipe is American... The Verve Pipe really being a one hit wonder. Don't bash other people do you have your music facts straight.

  • smells like teen spirit was not ''overhyped''.nirvana came along and totlally changed th landscape and sound of rock music with that song.its funny tho cause when that song came out i just thought they were another hard rock band i didnt realize at the time how much that song was gonna change everything and kill off all the hair bands that i loved so much back then.

  • you had me until #1..its a good song, but WAAAAAY overhyped !

  • SHIT

  • Are you Serious ? the Verve a "one hit wonder"....... you need to check out theyre other stuff.

  • so i lol'd completely when you called the verve a one hit wonder.

    are you serious? have you never heard of "the freshman"

    man what period of the 90s did you live in?

    you missed out.

  • hmm, respect your views yeah, but I love Godsmack.

  • how was that little kid that was a one hit wonder also that sang one world or one love or something like that.....

  • The Verve... a one hit wonder? are you joking?

  • essential comercial trash songs

  • Wow you are quite a moron when it comes to understanding artists, or what qualifies as music.

  • No  .

  • Oasis......should stay off this list. They wrote more great

    songs than i can care to count...and everyone band now needs

    to give a nod of recognition to the beatles

  • what about pearl jam????

  • If I see smells like teen spirit as another #1 one on a 90s count down, I am going to stab you all, repeatedly

  • @Flarkdude27 - accept it. as overplayed as it was. it is one of the greatest songs of all time and nothing you can do or say will change history

  • @Flarkdude27 Yup, good song, but there are SO many songs that are better. Nirvana is not the best of the 90's. sorry to break it to you guys.

  • @Flarkdude27 : True Come as you are is better.

  • @Flarkdude27 it might ease your mind that smells like teen spirit might be about Kurts tiny thing.

  • @Flarkdude27 kurt cobain was scared of myself so he fuck off

  • @Flarkdude27 smells like teen spirit if offcially the number 1 of the 90's muppet, live with it.

  • @Flarkdude27 mellow out Francis...

  • Nirvana is one of the worst bands ever. Commercially hyped up and shoved down your throat. Listen to that muttering nonsense. You must love them. Cobain's death led to Foo Fighters. Far better group. Alice in Chains and Soundgarden were the best grunge bands.

    Counting Crows was another group who made me turn off the radio.

  • @Gemini700

    oh how i so thoroughly agree that alice in chains was a better group.

    i just never saw much in soundgarden, however.

  • you suck

  • Blind Melon is only "pretty good".....?1?!?!?!

    He peed on someone on stage......how cool is that?

    And Radiohead? Only pretty good? Bah. Thom Yorke has like one of the greatest voices ever.

    Nailed it on Wonderwall though. :D and.....Zombie over Linger....*puts gun to head*

    Bias towards Counting Crows much?

    andddddddd cliche 90s song but ever so true.

    If they would of lasted longer, they would of started a downward spiral like most bands...sad but true.

  • kurt cobain did do great things and he still does.. i thought i was a mopy negative bitch get ur head out ur fucking ass u aint shit bitch

  • hey, fivezombies, there are some songs from the 90s that I liked a lot as a kid when they appeared and don't feature here: spice girls, bingo boys, ace of base, shakira etc.

  • hey!! sir mixalot is fucking beast and so is limp bizkit and wtf is wrong with you to think that marcy playground is "okay"

  • No Smashing Pumpkins???

  • you have it all wrong ! this is not a good fix on the 90s

  • Nirvana, Nirvana #1!

    ... whatever.

    Nirvana didn't even have that many good songs. Pearl Jam and the Stone Temple Pilots were both more successful groups than Nirvana.

  • I'll give you every other "embarrassing" mark, but don't hate on Jump Around. EVERYBODY knew that song when it came out. It was even used in a Bridgestone commercial recently; a good one. What does that tell you?

  • Cool vids I was in high school '94-'97 best music EVER!

    BTW Ozzy Osborne wanted to be like the Beatles too ;)

  • This person doesn't seem very educated hehe

  • No green day? pearl Jam?

  • @sisubilly - Yeah no Green Day? Green Day was a really good band until they got all mainstream with American Idiot.

  • @hogger129 That's for sure!

  • Kurt Cobain "could" have done great things? How old ARE you?

  • @flutey28 I agree with you, Kurt Cobain was the voice of a generation. I am of the belief that he if had been around longer that proud voice would have become a whisper xx

  • Tracy Chapman's Fast Car came out in 1988.

  • cassette lol

  • Good list. And I'm the type that hates that Cranberries song. Good job.

  • Shit list. Hip-Hop was on fire in the 90's, and you only put it in the "embarrassing" bit?

  • @8RandomGuy8 - I agree! Original Busta Rhymes, Nas, old school Jay-z. Clearly the person that made this list must have been born late 90's cause they only knew the mainstream typical music. There wasn't anything embarrassing about this list.. that was just 90's music at the time.

  • hey loved your montage thanx to u n utube xx

  • wow, what a great list

  • Good choices, good commentary, very entertaining.

  • Great compilation. I appeciate this!!!

  • there came the silverchair......

  • divinils is '80s

  • great taste in music!

  • BOOOO that song killed Kurt.

  • I still love that song by Kriss Kross and can only dream that one day when I am rich to have a 90's party in my private dancehall and play that song and of course nirvana's "teen spirit." I to wonder what Kurt Cobain could have done with his music career had he lived longer, as well as Tupac, Aaliyah, TLC, and Biggie.

  • i touch myself :)

  • i like baby got back xD

    and godsmack PWNS!!!

    Jump Around is good too!

    Nookie is good too....lol...

    i like your choices but i have to say the embarrsing ones are pretty good...well a good chuck are...

    ahhh oasis...i was praying you'd put in oasis...

    Zombie too....good song...The Cranberries just were good

    number one....hmm...i have to agree...nothing beats nirvana...

  • i have to disagree with your number 1 choice Although its an medeoaker song its far from the bst of the nineties even stoned kurt kobain is hard to listen too

  • @joma You sir, are a moron. Mediocre? It's one of the most recognizable songs ever. Kurt Cobain was one of the BEST artists ever. And that's not my opinion, but a fact put forward by many professional music critics. So no sir, the number 1 choice is CORRECT.

  • @BennyTheWhale - Oh come on, seriously? Cobain wasn't THAT great of an artist. He could write some good songs... okay. But he couldn't even play guitar that well. Dave Grohl (the drummer who went on to form the Foo Fighters) has more musical talent than Cobain did. People just like to say all this crap and talk big because Cobain is dead. Cobain wouldn't have been crap without the rest of Nirvana.

  • @hogger129

    The fact that Dave and Kurt were both in the same band is why Nirvana became so good. Not to mention Krist was a very talented bass player. Cobain probably gets to much credit. But they were his songs.

    And while Dave probably has more technical skills on both Guitar and Drums he isn't nearly as good a song writer. Lyrically Cobain was much more interesting and he wrote more consistent albums.

    Also NIRVANA changed the music scene before he died, people were "talking big" in 1991.

  • @BennyTheWhale you sir are completely fucking retarded kurt kobain was a dumb fuck hack who blew his fucking brains out cause he couldnt handle reality and nirvana was far from the best songs of the ninties and what music critics do u know i know quite a few professional ones personally... heres how i know what im talking about ... i own my own recording studio y'ah fuck

  • @joma yes i own my own studio as well, and just because you know/work with music critics doesnt make you one AND each critics opinion varies, so your point isn't valid.

  • I saw Live live also, but they were with Counting Crows and Collective Soul

  • @pearlvana05 - YEAH, I did, too. I'm the maker of this video, by the way.

  • @thusspokefrak Awesome video!

  • @fivezombies um....I know(I am assuming you are white but you shouldnt do the same)that the myth is "all Black people look alike".......but that guy with Ron "hedgehog" Jeremy is NOT Sir Mix-a-lot.

  • How do you know what Irish looks like???

  • Comment removed

  • The Verve has another hit, the drugs don't work. I think. Radiohead was waaaaay batter than them anyway! And Marcy Playground rocks, check out there other stuff! And long december is the CC song you chose? Really??

  • the 90s were such a better time

  • Man i wish it was still the 96'!!!

  • This is mint, I love the captions, u r so funny. And I like even better that The Cranberries are in your Top 3, nice 1 ! Most ppl take the P outta them lol. xxx

  • Nirvana is full of win.

  • im so glad you didnt bash blind melon. great shit, but gone before necessary. joan osbourne sucks. the new radicals were awesome......

  • The Verve weren't a one hit wonder......

  • ur backwards. all the "pretty good" songs, all suck. and nobody talks shit about the Divinyls!!!

  • @cfoodluvr you suck the list is right. im a little tired of seeing smells like teen spirit at #1, but the list is right, and your taste sucks

  • just looked at some of the songs on your profile, and sure, some of them are fun, but thats not "music."

  • Fast Car is 1988. Still great though.

  • that's true. But the thing is that song was still sooo played in the radio... that many people think is a 90's song. Excelent song!!!

  • i fucking like every single song on this video and fuck the ones thath dont the 90's were the shit I WOULD LOVE TO GO BACK IN TIME!!! maybe I would prevent Shannon Hoon to die :)!!! and he would be here playing and writting more awesome music, thats one of the things i would change!!

  • u moderfckr, u jst cant rate, ur choice is shit

  • beatles were/are legends. in their own right. your shit!

  • And oasis are not trying to be the beatles. The beatles were shit. Have you even listened to these songs?

  • Godsmack are epic, maybe even house of pain. And the Verve a one hit wonder ??

    You've missed out about a million better artists too.

    Seriously are you on crack?

  • Actually - it just goes to show what a person with absolutely no taste and entirely dependent on the media to tell them what to think/like puts in a collection of songs from the 90s.

  • you say house of pain is embarrassing? you don't understand music do you?

  • I'am surprised you didnt have Hootie and The Blowfish at #1

  • I dont have a vagina , so I like good music. I agree with Limp BizkitHATE THEM. The New Radicals HAHAHAHAHA. Cranberries were cool, but I got a thing for Irish chicks

  • Here Ye, Here Ye!

    As decreed by the Grandiloquent and Sacrosanct, who judge with the most exalted and sophisticated of standards, these songs are herald: "bad"! and the sire of this video as having: "shit taste"!

    Concur and acquiesce, or it is to the guillotine!

    The Puerile Supercilious have spoken.
