I went through the corners of my mind and tried to come up with every song that seemed even remotely popular during the 1990s. Some of these songs came out in 1989 or 2000, but so what?! The '90s was a (lackadaisical) state-of-mind, not an explicit calendar. Some of the groups here may have a different song listed than the one YOU liked, but this is MY list! And bear in mind, I don't even like most of this music. It's just what I remember seeing and hearing on the radio, SNL, coming out of people's cars, on MTV and Beavis & Butthead, in the drug store, at school dances, etc. I've put these in no particular order. Enjoy! And if you want to experience the 90s via comedy, check out these sketches from Mr. Show and SNL.
