Unless you WANTED 400 entries about why "Candle in the Wind '97" sucks.

You need some Bush song on there. They shouldn't escape this list after two awful 90's albums.

additionally, i think i arrived after the list was pretty much already finished, so all i did was agree with the ones that i thought were bad and went silent when 'buddy holly' came up.

Anyway, yes, you are missing Bush, that was the first one I thought of too. Glycerine.

I'm an Indian outlawHalf Cherokee and ChoctawMy baby --She's a Chippewaw, waw, waw, waw.
However, the single that was the singlehandedley most fucked up in music in the 90's would have to be:
I thought she took the train to Mars, she's out back counting STARS.
By whover the fuck it was. I remembered watching Howard Stern on TV once and that "Stars" band was playing in the studio with Howard Stern. It was shitty.

Sorry about the outburst. I was drunk.But seriously, 'Bodyrock' was released in 1999 (according to our friend AMG), and therefore MUST be in the top ten.

You're right - that should replace the much-less-offensive Fatboy Slim mix of "Body Movin".

People have sadly forgotten Train's "Meet Virginia," though it was released just at the cusp of the '90's, entering the US top 40 on 11/20/02, peaking I don't know when.
Sinker's suggestion is U&K, obv. I will defend anything from Bush's first album.

It's a good list. Only three I actually like (Beasties/Fatboy, Arrested Development (with big reservations about the lyrics!) and Dre), and absolutely loads of unspeakably bad records. Lots of good suggestions since too, except from the odd anti-pop mentalists (Spice Girls, Take That, Will Smith!) who are generally most annoyed by really good pop music, strangely.

Uh, HELLO? Paula Cole, people! Where has "Where Have All the Cowboys Gone?" gone? Or Dawson's Creek theme song "I Don't Want To Wait."

Well the original was such a fun song with all those crazy steel drums and such, and since Cook was fresh off "The Rockafella Skank" you'd think a remix would be ace - but it just sounds kind of sloppy and rehashes that "Sound of Milwaukee" wah-wah-whirr noise. The video, however, is one of the greatest things in history.
