Lesser Known 90s Song that You Like

[MuddledMadge]

Following on from the success of the 80s song thread, I thought I'd start one for 90s songs.

I'm thinking about songs that aren't really played much now, but also songs that maybe didn't get the attention they deserved at the time even though they're brilliant songs.

Looking forward to hearing everyone's suggestions.

Here's the 80s version of this thread, if anybody is interested.

Also, thanks for these responses.

@Lwrenagain How did you guess?

I've been using this as a username for a while and it's especially appropriate for this thread.

Back in the 90s I considered Design for Life and She Said (Longpigs) as my theme songs. You know, when you are at that age that you beleive the songs are just for you; nobody else could possibly relate and you can't believe anyone could write a song that encapsulates your feelings so much.

Great choices here - also waving to fellow Gene, Longpigs and Air fans

Longpigs - On And On
Ellis Beggs Howard - Where Did Tomorrow Go
Tori Amos - Silent All These Years

Shed Seven:
Chasing Rainbows
Going for Gold

Ooh I absolutely loved this too

Geneva- Tranquilizer
Supergrass - Richard III
Elastica - that whole first album

There is something very very sexy about this song.
