Unforgettable 90s Songs
The most striking feature of 90s songs is the incredible variety of genres that made their mark. All in all, no one genre dominated the entire era but each genre produced their own great bands and songs.
It wasn?t easy to choose a couple of songs from this era to feature in this article. Nevertheless, I finally made a decision and my only hope is that you enjoy what I have to offer.
(Everything I Do) I Do It For You ? Bryan Adams
One of the best love songs from the 90s, if not the best. The fact that it remained on top of the US charts for 7 consecutive weeks is testament to its beauty and impact. Overall, it was highest selling song in the world in the year 1991. The beauty of the song is that the message is both simple and powerful: the only way to show your true and unshakable love for someone is by being willing to do whatever it takes for that person. A true ballad for the ages.
Iris ? Goo Goo Dolls
When I think of this song, I always think about the movie City of Angels. This is normal because it was the film that took the song into the mainstream and made it one of the memorable tunes from the 90s. Unfortunately for Goo Goo Dolls, this song was not permitted to chart until it became a commercial single. It only reached number 9 in the charts when it was released as a single. If it had been released earlier, it would have been one of the biggest number one hits of the decade. It is still a great song nonetheless loved by many around the world.
End of the Road ? Boyz II Men
In 1992, Motown came back to prominence with the release of this record breaking song in 1992. In total, it spent 13 consecutive weeks at number 1 in the United States, which Boyz II Men would break twice in the 90s. The song deals with an imminent breakup between 2 lovers, where the man does not really want to let his woman go. The voices of the singers blend together very well and soon their style became to get copied. As a result Boyz II Men led the way for a new era of boy bands in the 1990s.
Overall, the 90s were a wonderful period of music where no genre dominated throughout. As the songs above show, 90s Songs have the ability to remain timeless and played over and over in the future.
