I have a playlist called Chill Songs of the 90s
Here are some that I'd recently forgotten about and unearthed.... Spin Doctors How Could You Want Him (When you know you could have me): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HOGBcYN1Hu4 Crush by Smashing Pumpkins https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=REWuNRvkDxk Slide by Goo Goo Dolls https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yP4qdefD2To Black Metallic by Catherine Wheel (not gonna go in depth into the amazing songs that have never really disappeared, like Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns, Doll Parts, Jane Says, anything by Pearl Jam or Nirvana, Stay by Lisa Loeb, A Long December, etc) |
Pure cringe. |
| Elder millennial here ('81 baby). Too many songs to list, but I distinctly remember playing several soundtracks from the mid-late 90's on repeat including: Empire Records, Clueless, Can't Hardly Wait, 10 Things I Hate About You, and Romeo + Juliet... |

My neighbor used to always joke she "used to be famous"
She had a number one song and was on cover of People Magazine with headling "The Next Madonna" She had several top 10 hits. Most have foregotten about her. Her big hit "All Night Passion" came out in 1984 but I was ever nighclub I went to in the 1980s and 1990s that sond was played at least once a night and floor would be packed. Her self-titled first album, produced by Mark Berry and released on Vanguard Records, included the hits All Night Passion (#4 Hot Dance US), Baby Talk (#1 Hot Dance US), and Too Turned On (#6 Hot Dance US) and sold over two million copies. Her second album, Nightwalkin', was released on RCA Records in 1987 and included the songs Do You Dream About Me? (for the movie Mannequin) and Into My Secret (which reached #9 on the Hot Dance US charts). Her third album Bounce Back was produced by Michael Jay and was released on MCA Records in 1990. It included the title track (which reached #10 on the Hot Dance US charts) and the single Wrong Number, |

All For You (sister hazel)
Circles (soul coughing) Two of my old faves/ never on the radio anymore and not even on any Spotify playlists |
| Shout out to the PP who mentioned Voice of the Beehive! I loved that album and cringe a little because I put "Just Like You" on a mix tape for a boy. I also appreciated the mention of the Juliana Hatfield Three. One of my iconic memories of the mid 90's is her being in the Christmas episode of "My So-Called Life." |
Doo Doo Brown and Justified and Ancient - total blasts from the past |

Everyone knows Juvenile from Back That A$$ Up and Slow Motion, but they forget about Ha. https://youtu.be/Ww9VlmXKYgs?si=aIXWmqbPE3TdRZ38
The video is really incredible in that it shows a late 90s New Orleans, years before Hurricane Katrina. |
