I love how the 90’s was very diverse and had an explosion of unique artists.

[george_b.]

Is it just me or anyone else feels lucky growing up in 80s and 90s?? Having all this music come and go!! Nostalgia!

[zerozerohero]

Blind Melon has tons of great songs and they surely would have had many more chart toppers if Shannon had lived. RIP

[rndmpinkiepie]

Homer Simpson's cover of Tubthumping is still too funny

"I take a whisky drink, I take a chocolate drink, and when I have to pee, I use the kitchen sink"

[lordeflockatee]

“Bitter Sweet Symphony” will always make me think of “Cruel Intentions”

[rebecca]

"You Get What You Give" is my favorite pop-rock song of all time. It may have been a one-hit wonder, but what a hit it was!

[MusicJunkiePlus]

“Return Of The Mack” and Lisa Loeb’s “Stay” are other great one hit wonders of the 90’s

[JohnDoe-wqeu]

Anytime I hear these I'm immediately transported back to the 90s instantly in my head.
Even if not all of these have held up perfectly they are a period of time I always want to remember.

[owenmcfetridge]

Closing Time by Semisonic should be on this list.

[dakidax]

"Nothing Compares" and "Torn" to me are the best one hit wonder of the 90s. And both are covers too.

[scullymills]

Impossible to do a top 10 for 90s songs. The 90s was a decade of solid music across all genres.

[KemmetMedia]

Return of the Mack - Mark Morrison is always somewhere in rotation.

[jfh.]

“The Freshman” by Verve Pipe should be on this list. One of the best one hit wonders ever

[markcullen]

The 90’s was the best decade for music. So many great artists and songs!

[karock]

Barely Breathing by duncan sheik is a personal favorite.

[vahi]

"Macarena" has to be the biggest one-hit wonder of the '90s.

[GrogMindwhip]

Without "Two Princes" this list is incomplete, Beccala.

Me: _Time to update my Spotify playlist!_

[guerrerodude]

This needs to be a top 20. "Ready to Go" by Republica, "Blue" by Eiffel 65, to name a couple that deserve love.
