10 Songs From the '90s That We Still Love To Hear
PJ Media ^ | 22 Mar 2018 | Lauren Spagnoletti

How can I tell I'm getting old? My go-to music choices don't even come close to popular music currently topping the charts. When I drive my son to preschool, I proudly blast the classic rock station -- which now plays music from the 1990s. If listening to the likes of Pearl Jam and U2 makes me an old fogey? I can deal with that.

Perhaps this is something my parents would have argued a few decades ago, but I firmly believe that there is a good amount of music from the '90s that was so solid it will never be outdated. And I can't say that for much of what I hear on popular radio stations today.

If not for anything but a bit of nostalgia, let's take a look at the top songs from the '90s that still hold their own, shall we?

and find it incredibly sad.

Smiles. I think that's why I like it. I veer toward that. But it is an excellently done/produced piece of music.

Dang, man, that's one of the most amazing songs ever made, and it certainly was a bold step at the time for a "guitar band".

Ah, look at all the lonely people...

That’s Lennon. No Beatles. I like that one, too. I think I’m about the only conservative that does like Imagine. :)

“Check out the video I posted in #12, the guy analytically explains how/why popular music has gone downhill since then.”

I’ll check it out when I can.

It’s definitely true that it’s gone downhill really bad. It’s all manufactured and fake.

Worse than ever.

There’s still plenty of good new music being made, though. You just won’t ever hear it on commercial radio, you have to go find it.

Roger that.

I’ve got over 3500 songs on my Amazon Prime. Adding more each week. I love Amazon Prime. Makes my two hour daily commute to and from work very tolerable.

“Dominique” (The Singing Nun)--Probably the worst hit song ever

Probably not a popular song among Cathars, the neo-gnostic sect that Domingo de Guzmán (Dominique) fought to suppress during the Albigensian Crusade early in the thirteenth century, noted in the first verse.

“The record-buying public’s tastes were certainly diverse.”

It was an era when the likes of Frank Sinatra, The Electric Prunes, Bob Dylan, James Brown would be found alongside each other in the Top 40 and played on the same station.

The string section was used beautifully.

Wendy Wilson and Carnie Wilson are both great singers.

“Roger that.”

Ditto, you gotta hunt your druthers down - or sometimes just stumble upon a sound you like, but they’s still some good music to be found.
