To ask for your favourite 90's songs

[RoseGoldProsecco]

Big birthday party coming up and we wanted to give the DJ a list of 90's favourites to play. So.... AIBU to ask you for some 90's tunes rather than just googling (or handing him my iPod!!) please?

Oasis, wonder wall.
No Doubt, don't speak.
Boy George, karma chameleon.
Michael Jackson, any of his songs!

Mike & the mechanics, looking back.
Shaggy, it wasn't me & angel.

YY to every one of Saucy's plus

Terrorvision - Oblivion

Haddaway- what is love

Out here brothers - don't stop movin' baby

I'm going to have a little quite trashy and lite pre-90's moment.

And there seemed to be a lot of good female artists around then.

Been trying to remember a band all day and it's
