02. U2 "One"

03. Backstreet Boys "I Want It That Way"

04. Whitney Houston "I Will Always Love You"

[Drizzay 760]

You would have to assume that Whitney would be there with that song. If I remember correctly, that was the first huge MEGA hit that came from a soundtrack since Stayin' Alive and Purple Rain. That thing was number one for months on end.

 

As for the Backdoor Boys, I couldn't agree with you more. As far as I'm concerned, that whole genre/period in music NEVER happened.

Id wager two of our very own geeks, Naomi and Me_2006 attended 6-7 Backsreet Boys and Hansen concerts

 

 

Ice Ice baby should be higher up the chart And its criminal that Hypnotize isnt even on the list

My GF was a Backstreet Boys Junkie. She told me about it once, and she is now forbidden to EVER bring that up in my presence.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

EVER!

Lump INSYNC into the group and youve got a winning parlay

[NewbieJr 541]

Let's not forget that N*SYNC brought us Justin Timberlake, who, along with John Mayer, may be the most talented musical artist of his generation.

02. U2 "One"

03. Backstreet Boys "I Want It That Way"

04. Whitney Houston "I Will Always Love You"

 

One is a great song. It should be up there.

 

Whitney's is probably up there because it was HUGE and every girl adored it.

 

No clue why the Backdoor Boys are up there.

If you would substitute "I am NewbieJr and I enjoy sucking c0ck" instead of what you typed above, you would come off as a little bit less gay.

[RLLD 4,283]

No NIN, Marilyn Manson, White Zombie.....

 

This list must actually be delineated to "poP and "hip hop" only.....there was some great jazz being put out as well...

You need to be gay bashed.

You enjoy the cack, eh?

[NewbieJr 541]

Anyone who is so 'manly' that they can't admit that Timberlake is talented is going through an extreme case of try to mask their homosexual tendencies.

 

Grow a pair, girlie-men.

The only thing that Timberlake should be credited for is him banging Britney Spears before she became a slutty, suicidal nutjob.

He sold high. Brilliant timing on his part.

[He Like Me 0]

Boyz II Men's "Motown Philly" was pretty huge in it's day, you'd think it would be on the top 100.

Eli's Comin'!

[jerryskids 7,199]

I've always thought that that entire decade sucked for music. Now I have proof.

[RLLD 4,283]

I've always thought that that entire decade sucked for music. Now I have proof.

 

Tough call....every decade will have the "popular" stuff which is just fluffed candy.....and they will get all the sales #'s....but still, each decade has produces some timeless and tangible stuff as well....

 

Albums such as the Pixies Trompe Le Monde, Concrete Blonde's Bloodletting and even Echo and the Bunnymen with Evergreen represent pretty good stuff from the 90's.....JMHO

[SUXBNME 1,629]

I watched the whole thing on VH1 yesterday...Then watched the whole 80's best after it.

 

Not a very productive day for me

[surferskin 31]

This list sucks so bad that I'm surprised it didn't come from espn.com.

[Big Blue 06 196]

I watched the whole thing on VH1 yesterday...Then watched the whole 80's best after it.

 

Not a very productive day for me

 

Well I spent an hour watching the top 20 from the 80s, then another 2 hours watching VH1 Rock Honors: The Who. I wasn't exactly setting the world on fire either.

I only saw Tenacious D's and Pearl Jams performance on rock honors.

 

Eddie Vedder kicked some ass

02. U2 "One"

03. Backstreet Boys "I Want It That Way"

04. Whitney Houston "I Will Always Love You"

 

You're right - "One" should be #1.

 

As for the rest of the list

[surferskin 31]

You're right - "One" should be #1.

 

As for the rest of the list

"One" was the best song of the 90's? Could U2 be more overrated.

[SUXBNME 1,629]

That's just wiggida wiggida wack

[dain11279 985]

"One" was the best song of the 90's? Could U2 be more overrated.

 

I would much rather listen to Metallica's "One".

[wiffleball 4,797]

01. Nirvana "Smells Like Teen Spirit"

 

I think Nerdana is a lot like Macy Gray. They both horribly suck, but every once in a while "they" try to get everybody else to like stuff that sucks just to prove that "they" are so cool they can make uncool people claim to like totally sucky things just to look cool.

[surferskin 31]

I think

This is where you went wrong.

[wiffleball 4,797]

This is where you went wrong.

 

Another anti-intellectual. Really, you should try thinking some time. At least don't knock it until you've tried it.

[Yer mom 2]

Let's not forget that N*SYNC brought us Justin Timberlake, who, along with John Mayer, may be the most talented musical artist of his generation.

 

Timberlake is versatile and talented, ill give you that but not good enough to boost the rest of his little pillowbiting cronies into a worthy position. John Mayer is absolute dogshiit

 

The only thing that Timberlake should be credited for is him banging Britney Spears before she became a slutty, suicidal nutjob.

 

Score 1

 

Boyz II Men's "Motown Philly" was pretty huge in it's day, you'd think it would be on the top 100.

 

Score 1

 

You're right - "One" should be #1.

 

Nah, just because the message is powerful doesnt mean its a good song. Bonor whined his way through a 3+ minute song for chrissakes. You know a song isnt very good when it comes on the radio in your car and its still going to be the last option of 6 preset stations

[Thornton Melon 653]

"One" was the best song of the 90's? Could U2 be more overrated.

 

"One" is the best song evah

[surferskin 31]

Another anti-intellectual. Really, you should try thinking some time. At least don't knock it until you've tried it.

You just compared Nirvana to Macy Gray and you're question my thinking?

[wiffleball 4,797]

You just compared Nirvana to Macy Gray and you're question my thinking?

 

Yes, because they both suck. Nirvana=Macy Gray=Brussels Sprouts.

[dain11279 985]

I focking hate Bono.

[phillybear 366]

Yes, because they both suck. Nirvana=Macy Gray=Brussels Sprouts.

 

Nirvana does not suck, you tone deaf nitwit. And try to ingest some green stuff, other than Mountain Dew.

[redtodd 7]

"One" was the best song of the 90's? Could U2 be more overrated.

 

Yes, One is easily one of the best of the 90's. U2 after Actung Baby is over-rated. But Actung Baby and before is outstanding.

[SUXBNME 1,629]

Nirvana does not suck, you tone deaf nitwit. And try to ingest some green stuff, other than Mountain Dew.

No, they do not suck at all.

I can't stand Cobain, and I think that he is one of the most over rated fockbags evah, but they did not suck.

[wiffleball 4,797]

Nirvana does not suck, you tone deaf nitwit. And try to ingest some green stuff, other than Mountain Dew. :mad:

 

Nirvana is as devoid of tone as your puny muscles are.

 

 

And I get plenty of green from your Mother's fetid festering womb, thank you very much.

[phillybear 366]

I'm glad to hear it. Mom needed to get some c0ck. Even if it was your scurvy mess.
