12:02 This was literally the second song I thought about when I put on the video, in between Garbage "Only Happen When It Rains", Cranberries "Dreams", Stone Temple Pilots "Big Empty" and Live "Lightning Crashes".
I don't know if I'd call them playlist staples, but my top 10 '90s rock tracks I consider underappreciated include the following: "Pepper," the Butthole Surfers; "Universal Heartbeat," Juliana Hatfield; "Dream All Day," The Posies; "I Was Wrong," Social Distortion; "The Trick is to Keep Breathing," Garbage; "Into Your Arms," The Lemonheads' (1993 cover); "Sweet '69," Babes in Toyland; "Bruise Violet," Babes in Toyland; "Down by the Water," P.J. Harvey; "Serve the Servants," Nirvana. S.R., Mo-Mutt Music
I didn't forget either. I was a teenager in the 1990s, so 90s alternative rock is my favorite era and genre of music. I asked Alexa to play Alice in Chains this morning.
I love Garbage and Shirley Manson, I had no idea that people forgot that song. I haven't stopped listening this album and the band since the first time
L7's "Pretend We're Dead" and Republica's "Ready to Go" could absolutely have been on this list. Arguably, they're more undeservedly forgotten than some of the songs included here.
As someone who was in high school mid-late 90’s this list is so relatable. ‘Sex and Candy,’ ‘Inside Out,’ ‘Balloon’ and ‘Univited’ are definitely memorable.
Class of 97 here. Green Day's Dookie was my freshman year, Smashing Pumpkins Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness was my junior year, and Foo Fighters Color and the Shape was my senior year. I very closely tie each album to that respective year of high school.
@WatchMojo i disagree on top 9 90s rock hit but Did you know back in the early 90s in 1995 You Oughta Know was her number 1 hit in the us and reached the top 9 lists change it and make it right pls From Billy Bardsley
The 90s gave us so many amazing bands and timeless songs. Let's not forget "The Kids Aren't Alright" by The Offspring. Talk about a song we can all relate to. I dare say most of us knew every single person mentioned in that song in our lives.
“Sick of Myself” by Matthew Sweet. “Walk on the Ocean” by Toad the Wet Sprocket “This is Hardcore” by Pulp “Why Does It Always Rain On Me” by Travis “Santa Monica” by Everclear “River of Deceit” by Mad Season “Stars” by HUM
Garbage was truly Iconic and unforgettable.Veruca Salt really rocked. David Bowie’s I’m afraid of Americans with Trent Reznor was a ‘comeback’ plus it’s facetious. RIP - I still miss him❤️ Sex and Candy awesome 1 hit wonder. Great list
I own a Gibson es335 that used to belong to Trent reznor. I have the provenance to prove it. I live in Memphis and it was made here at the Gibson plant for him. He used it in his live shows. They made 100 for him. He smashed all but 35 of them on stage. He gave the 35 Back to Gibson. They presented them to employees as bonuses with their names on the trussrod plate. I got it from an employee. I paid $3000 for it.
Faith No More’s Angel Dust album (to include ‘Midlife Crisis’) is criminally underrated. Some of these other songs from Incubus, Everlasting, Lit, Filter etc are fortunately still played regularly on our local rock and alternative radio stations. Definitely not forgotten.
@@JamestheXennial Oh wow! That is messed up. His originality, range, creativity - the list goes on. He has influenced so many singers that came after him.
I just saw this video and watched it and commented the same thing the only people that forgot about this stuff are the people that didn't listen to this kind of music
Again, NIN should've been here and so many many many other amazing bands. The 90s wasn't my favorite but had some absolutely breath-taking hits that remain timeless.
You can’t get any more 90s than The Posie’s - Dream All Day Also, Deftones - Change is an awesome song. Others are, Lucius Jackson - Naked Eye, Everything But the Girl - Missing, Letters to Cleo - Here and Now, Hole - Violet, 3 Doors Down - Loser, B52s - Roam, White Zombie - Thunderkiss, U2 - Ultraviolet, The Breeders - Cannonball, L7 - Pretend We’re Dead, and Local H - Bound for the Floor. And for some hip hop - Londonbeat - Been Thinking About You. For EDM… Children, Rapture, Insomnia, to name a few
90s were a great decade for music!!! I was a kid in the late 70s, graduating high school in '88, so this list is one that I actually have heard most of the songs!! Goo goo dolls is a GREAT band!!! Spotify even let me know when their new album came out, and I found a couple of songs to add to my Playlist. Back in the day....I used to sing their song Name. It was an inside joke with a friend of mine who I would hang out with and go to a bar to sing karaoke.
Name, Big Machine, Black Balloon, Slide and of course Iris. They have a number of very good tracks. Iris is overplayed but for good reason, there's so much going on in the background in that song.
Some yes, many no. 80s were fun, celebratory and bright. 1/2 of these are angry which is what I now dont like about 90s music. 2010 decade social media took angrrrrrrrrrr to such a level that makes a lot of what I liked back then unlistenable.
I seriously can't understand how Alanis became famous. Her voice is grating. Even when I was younger and my music taste was completely unrefined, I asked how someone who just screams got a record deal. She's so bad I turn her off my radio even if it's on mute.
No Deftones, No Korn, No superman's dead from Our Lady Peace, No Novocaine For The Soul from Eels, No Alice In chains ? No Black hole Sun From Soungarden? Well...
@@trinaq 1993. So I’m five years older. And I see you were born in the year of Radiant Silvergun, Lethal Weapon 4, Small Soldiers, Armageddon, Burning Rangers, and The Mask of Zorro.
Bowie and Trent were good friends. They toured together, worked on a bunch of projects together and Trent even credits Bowie for him getting clean and sober. They just showed Trent in the video but didn't mention him. Ridiculous!
Once again, spoken to a casual rock fan point of view, most of these songs to the true rock fans are always awesome. They never stop being awesome. I get that some of these songs because of the tones or rhythm or style they take are an acquired taste, but they never stopped being awesome
the 90s ended 23+ years ago, "casual" or "true" rock fans some folks are just gonna slip ones mind. no need to go out of your way to make yourself seem (key word here) like you are a cooler or better rock fan then the rest. lmfao.
Garbage is absolutely wonderful! I've been a fan of them ever since their first album came out! And even knew about Shirley Manson before garbage when she was in Angelfish! 🤘🤘 They're one of the best bands that's ever existed and they're still around today making new music! 🤘I haven't forgotten any song by them! I wish I could meet Shirley Manson in person before I die. I know that's not going to happen but dear Lord that would be a dream come true 🤗🤗🤘🤘😁💓💓💓💓💓🤘🤘🤘
Incubus live was still one of the best gigs I’ve ever seen, even though I knew barely any of their music. So good I went back again the following year, same venue, higher price 🤦♀️😬🤘
I loved "drive" by incubus. I end up hating incubus once the 2000's came around because they became to political. They have hatred for anyone that doesn't think like a liberal. Same with green day.
Amen I Kinda Fell Out Of Love With Fall Out Boy when the 2010's kept going on but they'd made a banger cartoon Mondo Trasho 3042 one bright spot in all of that
In 1996, I saw Garbage, Sponge and Stabbing Westward play together. That was a phenomenal show! I wish I could remember who the opening act was. The 90’s were SUCH a great era to grow up in! 🙏🏻❤️🙌🏻
I was introduced to the Cranberries by my mom’s classmate (my mom went back to the work force & was 10 yrs older than everyone). She would paint my nails and belt out their lyrics….been a fan ever since, remember this song clear as day, I’m 37 now
Garbage is one of the most underrated bands of all time. Far too many people "never heard of them" these days, but almost everyone knows at least one of their songs when you start playing their biggest hits or any of their songs which were used in movies. (That "oh, they did that song!?" moment.)
Lot of songs that I've never heard of. Maybe here in France. Popular was a hit here, Alanis too. And Garbage is clearly my favourite, always loved this song and many more from them. Shirley Manson is an awesome singer, incredible in concert.
Would it be possible to make a Top 50 list on this topic? You left a lot of songs out: - "Mother Mother" by Tracy Bonham - "Never There" by Cake - "Get 'Em Outta Here" by Sprung Monkey - "Sucked Out" by Superdrag - "Cannonball" by the Breeders - "Connection" by Elastica - "L Train" by Shootyz Groove - "Legend of a Cowgirl" by Imani Coppola - "Radiation Vibe" by Fountains of Wayne - "Hello" by Poe
Anyone else sat stewing with silent rage while listening to the mellow voice of the countdown and thinking: "What!?! No Chumbawamba?!? Again??!?... this is fking bullshit, man" and go put on Tubthumping.
These songs sound great! I like rock🎸! "Pardon Me", "Black Balloon", and "My Own Worst Enemy" came out the same year I was born! Also, the ladies in these music videos looked so nice!
You failed to mention rock and roll hall of fame legend Trent Reznor who was on and sang with David Bowie in “I’m afraid of American’s.” David and Trent brought out the best in one another. It’s too bad we won’t see another video with them together again. R.I.P. David Bowie ❤️💔❤️🎶🎤🎸
A sampling of my favorite songs from the 1990s: "If I Have To Be Alone"--Todd Rundgren "Men Will Be Men"--Suzanne Vega "Them Bones"--Alice In Chains "When I Was Your Age"--Weird Al Yankovic "Until I Fall Away"--The Gin Blossoms "Runaway Train"--Soul Asylum "The King Is Half-Undressed"--Jellyfish "Walls"--Tom Petty "I Don't Know You"-- Annie Ross & The Low Note Quintet "I Should Be Allowed To Think"-- They Might Be Giants "Vampires"--The Pet Shop Boys "Have A Nice Day"--Ramones "Fade Into You"--Mazzy Star "Skydiver"--Schtum "Sleep"--Garbage "On The Shoulders Of Freaks"-- Henry Phillips "Driven"--Rush "On My Own"--Peach "Mmm-Bop"--Hanson "Goddess On A Hi-Way"--Mercury Rev "The Blarney Stone"--Ween "Bachelorette"--Björk "Bad Reputation"--Freedy Johnston "Feeling Yourself Disintegrate"-- The Flaming Lips "Iris"--The Goo Goo Dolls
It's funny, in the 90s, I wouldn't be caught dead listening to Hanson, Backstreet Boys or Len (Steal My Sunshine was overplayed the day it dropped) but now? I turn the radio up and remember my wonderfully wasted youth.
Was hoping Fastball’s “The Way”, “Out Of My Head” or “Fire Escape” would be on here but there’s so much good music from back than you’d probably have to do a top 50 eventually
no one forgot the way by fastball cuz it's on every other wm list about 90's rock. still gets played on the radio too. not sure why Lit are on here either or Eve 6
As piracy effectively defunded the entire music industry down to it's bare minimum (live performance) the 90's was the very last time music was a major player in artistic expression. The 90's were the last time a musician can experiment without financial insecurity. That's why ever since pop hybrids of music genres has emerged as the overwhelming available genre of music.
Sex and Candy by Marcy Playground is my favourite song from them, and anyone that have not heard this song, have probably not heard of the band. Also, I do not know how people can forget Only Happy When It Rains, since they have played it in recent movies like Captain Marvel.
Pardon me,black balloon,own worst enemy,take my picture,inside out,what it's like,sex and candy and jumper have been on my Playlist for over 22 years ❤
I'm GEN-X....served in the military 2992-2000 I may or may not have drank alot of alcohol, deployed several times, but didn't forget the music we listened to at the time, this music, 70s, 80s 50s, 60s....all great to get US through, the SUCK
As a late 80s / 90s kid it pains me to say the 90s will be largely forgotten compared to the 70s and 80s in terms of music. Grunge being an exception, and maybe some hip hop/R&B, that’s it. Some great pics on here, though, and very nostalgic
These are still what's in my daily driver spotify playlist. The newer stuff just didnt drum the beat for me. 90s rock and the early 2000s was peak music for me.
