Ah, the 90s! Best music decade of the universe. Well, if you were teenager/twentysomething at that time, you can understand me. :o)
Slant Magazine spent this whole week ranking its best 100 singles of those years. I diligently spotified the chart. Here it comes, for a hot freezing winter friday of pure nostalgia, remembering when you were a creep and a loser, but full of unfinished sympathy and of lovely smelly teen spirit. Enjoy!
(99% of the songs available on Spotify, wow)
