(Finished July 6th, 2022) Part 1 of The 102 Best Songs of the 1990s

Hello,

The way I'm doing this is I'm going to post the Top 102 greatest 90s songs in order of the way I thought of them. Once I hit 102 songs I will go and look at the 102 listed songs and see if there are any other songs that the 101st song might be better than. If so I will replace the previously listed song. That way I can stay at 100 songs and have truly the 100 greatest 1990s songs of all-time. This isn't a ranking by best songs, that's just too much work. As best as I can these are the 102 greatest 1990s songs.

I will also post other great 90s songs by each band listed if motivated enough. As all of these artists are so much more than one of the 100 greatest songs of the 1990s. Yeah I'm going to try and do all the decades from the 1950s to now, some decades will be harder/easier than others. It's likely not all of these songs will still be around in the final edition of this decade's Top 102 Best Songs.

I included Sinead O'Connor's "Nothing Compares 2 U" and M.C. Hammer's "U Can't Touch This" in with the best songs of the 80s. I won't be including those songs here.

Almost 82.5 million YouTube views. 1) Pearl Jam "Alive":


Another great 90s song by Pearl Jam "Red Mosquito":

 

Over 24 million YouTube views. 2) Eve 6 "Inside Out":


Over 68.5 million YouTube views. 3) The Cardigans "Lovefool":


Over 422 million YouTube views. 4) Oasis "Wonderwall":


Just slightly over 66 million YouTube views. 5) Alanis Morissette "You Oughta Know":


Over 247 million YouTube views, well deserving. 6) The Counting Crows "Mr. Jones":


115,000 YouTube views. 7) Pearl Jam "Elderly Woman Behind A Counter In A Small Town":


8) Everclear "Santa Monica":


Over 1.2 billion YouTube views. 9) The Cranberries "Zombie":


Almost 22 million YouTube views. 10) Third Eye Blind "Semi-Charmed Life":


85 million YouTube views. 11) "Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)":


Almost 81 million YouTube views. 12) No Doubt "Just A Girl":


About 21 million YouTube views. 13) Gin Blossoms "Hey Jealousy":


About 143 million YouTube views for one of the best songs ever. 14) Lauryn Hill "Doo Wop (That Thing)":


Almost 103 million YouTube views. 15) Green Day "When I Come Around":


Originally I had Nine Inch Nails "Head Like A Hole" here. Just now I'm realizing that "Pretty Hate Machine" was actually released in 1989. Since the ten songs on that CD were obviously released in 1989 I'm including those songs in the 102 best songs of the 1980s. So Nine Inch Nails here will be replaced by

Over 28 million YouTube views. Damn Yankees. 16) "High Enough":


Almost 35.5 million YouTube views. 17) The Toadies "Possum Kingdom":
