Tbh I don't mind what progresses here, all good songs.

That being said Song 2 really is a poor man's version of Teen Spirit, there I said it.

No Scrubs

Nothing Compares 2 U (Oasis have some decent songs but Wonderwall can fúcks off)

Tonight Tonight (love both but this one is more special to me)

Come As You Are (a better Nirvana song than Smells Like Teen Spirit, change my mind! )

Sinéad O'Connor - Love Oasis but Wonderwall nowhere near their best even if it is their most famous.

One of those songs I hate with a passion, won't say which

Electric Nitwit

I went to the doctor and guess what he told me, he said there are many things that I would like to say to you but he's a fool

lassykk

Sinead O'Connor gets my vote

No Oasis in a vote for the best song of the 90s? That is outrageous

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Amazingly I still have 3 horses left in the running.

In fairness I did list Sinead O'Connor in my ten picks if I had been in time for the nominations so not that controversial

Don't hate Oasis but never really liked them either

Well I think we should go right back to the beginning and start from scratch! Just like that treaty referendum:D

I think the One Hit Wonder competition should be done all over again with stricter conditions!:)

I have one song left.
Anyone who votes against it will be cursed.

I missed it cos of stupid work.

Ah well. It's an ok line up but the dismissal of pop tunes for some of the indie songs is a bit ridiculous

Can we rename this the *hipster* 90s best song contest

I must admit I'm shocked by the "quality" of the music left in it as most of it would be to my taste. I was sure that some of the more "popular" songs of the 90s would have done well

Well the 90s were the era of grunge and indie going massive

Lassy,

Did you have a nosey at the album covers competition?

Some, all, or none of the bands featured here will be in the aforementioned Album Covers PEEHS quiz

Open for entries now, come and show off your musical knowledge

EDIT: just checked and 10 of the 14 artists left standing here were in the first album covers quiz! (so are not in this one)

Declan A Walsh

I have one nomination left in the competition and it got through without me voting!

Best time to be alive for music - Shame I was 5 when the 90s started and not able to enjoy what must have been some of the best concerts ever
