Best song of the 90s

[InsideNumberNine]

DH and I had a few wines last night and fell down a YouTube rabbit hole listening to 90s music. We then got into a heated debate about what the best song of the 90s was.

My vote - Set You Free by NTrance

His vote - Live Forever by Oasis

For clarity, we were both mid teens during this decade.

What's your stand out song of the 90s?

Happy memories of that one!

And Nightcrawlers - push the feeling on.

Both annoyed my ex immensely. So clearly I was going to love them!

En Vogue - don’t let go

Insomnia by Faithless

Turn Around by Phats and Small was quite good. I also liked Save Tonight by Eagle Eye Cherry and Life Is A Flower by Ace of Base.

Conversely, from the summer of 1998, I hated all that Fat Les Vindaloo World Cup shit. I'm not a football fan and I found it difficult to escape that scene on holiday in Corfu that year!

So many great suggestions
I'm going to make a list

I won't add anything as I've not had a chance to read it. But listening to the Nightcrawlers now! 💃🏽

Everything but the girl - missing (Todd terry remix)

Ah man! I have a 90s playlist on Spotify and have just added a few of these to it. It's now running at 13 hours long

Most of the ones I would have said have already been mentioned. So.

Cornflake Girl - Tori Amos
Jessie - Joshua Kadison
The Red Strokes - Garth Brooks
Inbetweener - Sleeper
A Girl Like You - Edwyn Collins
Nothing Ever Happens - Del Amitri
Ready to Go - Republica
Misshapes - Pulp
Hedonism - Skunk Anansie

I work with the cousin of Dee Fearon, the singer with Baby D

Mr Jones by counting crows

Not the best songs but the best memories

Believe in me Help me believe in anything 'Cause I wanna be someone who believes

Brilliant choice.

Sally Cinnamon! (Could have been 89 but near enough!) Reminds me SO much of being a teenager in the summertime. Wearing baggy jeans, kissing boys, smoking, drinking snakebite & black 🙈 and just wanting to hang out with friends ALL the time.

Was so certain we were going to win Eurovision that year, getting all excited along with Tez Wogan. Think it ended up coming second which is pretty amazing considering recent results!
I even got a white lace dress just like she wore in the video
