90's Mixed Tape - 25 songs
Posted on 3/1/24 at 7:25 pm
Posted on 3/1/24 at 7:25 pm
What would you put on a quintessential 90's Mix Tape of 25 songs?
The numbering isn't a top 25 ranking, or the order they'd be on the tape, the numbering is just to keep count.
The purpose of the list would be to educate a Zoomer on what 90's music was in a single representative mixed tape.
1. Been Caught Stealing - Jane's Addiction
2. Girlfriend - Matthew Sweet
3. Losing my Religion - REM
4. Loser - Beck
5. Someday I Suppose - Mighty Mighty Bosstones
6: All I Wanna Do - Sheryl Crow
7: Smell Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana
8: Outshined - Soundgarden
9: Man in the Box - Alice in Chains
10: Wonderwall - Oasis
11. Plush - Stone Temple Pilots
12. No Rain - Blind Melon
13. 6 Underground - Sneaker Pimps
14. Seether - Veruca Salt
15: Ants Marching - Dave Matthews
16: Under the Bridge - Red Hot Chili Peppers
17. Mr Jones - Counting Crows
18. Hey Jealousy - Gin Blossoms
19. Runaround - Blues Traveler
20. You Oughta Know - Alanis Morrissette
21. Jeremy - Pearl Jam AKA Mookie Blaylock
22. 1979 - Smashing Pumpkins
23. Linger - The Cranberries
24. Stay - Lisa Loeb
25. Buddy Holly - Weezer
Background INFO- I initially posted the first five, the rest came from suggestions in this thread to fill it out to 25.
The 25 has been rounded out. Now is the argument phase. Remove X song replace with Y.
I'll update this list with entries I agree with.

I'll approach this with the idea that you need a range of music that defines the 90s rather than necessarily good or the best music of the 90s. I tried to use the first song I heard by groups with a lot of music. So here is a pile for you. 
Baby Got Back - Sir Mix-A-Lot
If It Makes You Happy - Sheryl Crow
The Sign - Ace of Base
Wonderwall - Oasis
Waterfalls - TLC
Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana
Outshined - Soundgarden
Man in the Box - Alice in Chains
Baby Got Back - Sir Mix-A-Lot

Man in the Box - Alice in Chains

Tough because there was so much great different music.
Don’t Look Back in Anger - Oasis
(cool obscure)
All Around The World (La La La) - ATC (A Touch of Class )
Just the way It Is Baby - The Rembrandts
Then the Country genre was awesome too.

Great list already btw.

The making of a great compilation tape, like breaking up, is hard to do and takes ages longer than it might seem. You gotta kick off with a killer, to grab attention. Then you got to take it up a notch, but you don’t wanna blow your wad, so then you got to cool it off a notch. There are a lot of rules

25 songs isn't enough to encapsulate the decade. This list is 50 songs. I tried to cross genres, span the 90s, and not repeat too many already listed songs. This list still doesn't hit all the big bands (no Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, Foo Fighters, Metallica), skips most pop and vocalists, skips nu metal, doesn't scratch the small bands, and is overly US-centric.

Anthrax - Only
Belly - Feed The Tree
Bjork - Human Behavior
