1990s in Songs Bracket • Page 3

This retrowave mix reminds me about 90s and 80s actually. You can "sense" this :3

 

This feels honestly impossible

 

Weird for me to see Champaign Supernova getting it over the other big oasis songs of the decade. That was always my least favorite between Wonderall, Don’t Look Back in Anger, and that one

 

Coin toss for me on "Champagne Supernova" and "Don't Look Back In Anger." Both all-timers.

 

Both good runners up to “Don’t Go Away”

 

A bold choice! My favorite from Be Here Now is “Stand By Me,” though.

 

I’d take Live Forever and Morning Glory as my two favorite Oasis Songs with Don’t Go Away at #3

 

morning glory is 3 for me

 

"My Big Mouth" would've been my next Oasis choice, followed by like a 10-way tie at #3. Always thought they were a great '90s band; never really bothered with their 2000s output before but the yearly album threads got me to check it out, way more good stuff there than I'd previously been led to believe

 

Live Forever baby

 

been saying for years

 

My son grooves to I2I

 

1. Nas - NY State of Mind
2. Mobb Deep - Shook Ones Pt 2
3. Ghostface Killah - Daytona 500
4. Breakdown from Pantera - Domination

as far as I got before I stopped caring.

 

When are these do? will try to get mine in Saturday. going to be horribly upset when Hum is once again snubbed

 

"Everlong" is the best radio rock song of all time, though. "1979" also right there.

 

sunday, yeah. and votes have been spread out to way more variety of songs this week to where two votes for any one song will almost guarantee it's in. or rather a first place vote + another.

 

Songs is really hard to do but here goes

1) Our Lady Peace "Superman's Dead"
2) Third Eye Blind "God Of Wine"
3) Matthew Good Band "Strange Days"
4) Goo Goo Dolls "Iris"

This is the most insane decade to make such a short a list for as an R&B and Hip Hop head. I have also had a hellish week. I couldn't leave @OhTheWater hanging though, so I threw together a quick list of (sometimes overplayed, but for a reason?) bangers.

01. Tevin Campbell - I2I (aka Powerline - I2I)
02. Souls of Mischief - 93 'Til Infinity
03. The Notorious B.I.G. Feat. Puff Daddy & Mase - Mo Money Mo Problems*
04. Ghostface Killah Feat. Mary J Blige - All That I Got Is You
05. Tatyana Ali - Boy You Knock Me Out (Big Willie Style) Feat. Will Smith
06. Funk Flex & Big Kap Feat. LL Cool J - Ill Bomb**
07. Will Smith Feat. Tatyana Ali & My Lyte - Who Am I
08. Brandy Feat. Mase - Top Of The World
09. Green Day - Basket Case
10. Boyz II Men - 4 Seasons Of Loneliness

* The "best" Biggie song? No. One of the most infectious songs of all time? Definitely.
** Also known as LL Cool J - Ill Bomb off of an album of his that came out in 2000, but it first came out in 1999 on Flex's album 'The Tunnel'.

 

Shout out @StreetSpirit for being the only person to nominate Lauryn Hill

 

I had her on my album list back when we did that. I kinda went in a different way for these threads on purpose. That’s why there is no Illmatic song on my list either

 

Shout out @StreetSpirit for not having Street Spirit in his top 10

edit: I didn’t know harvest moon was 90s and I straight up forgot nightswimming. Absurd decade, pretty easily best in my opinion.
