This song is a classic from 2004. It’s what helped make The Killers become familiar and accessible. Their modern 80’s synth vibe was all the rage during the 80’s revival in Y2K, and Brandon Flowers’ voice makes this song reach maximum awesome level. Besides, it’s a good karaoke song. Jot that down if you need a new addition to your karaoke list.
I’m not the biggest fast of rap or hip hop, but I make exceptions. Outkast is one, and that’s because their songs stand out from others in the rap/hip hop game. They have the best mixture of rapping and singing that doesn’t sound cheesy or mainstream. Although they have reached the mainstream, they handle themselves in such a cool manner. I appreciate Outkast in all formations, but this song stands out the most for me personally.
Oh, dear Mr. Jones do I love this song. Not only is my name featured in the lyrics, but this wordy song is so damn catchy and easy to bop around and dance to. This is for sure another 90’s classic right here, and another one for the karaoke list if you feel comfortable taking on such a wordy song.
I know this is a cover (another goodie from Simon & Garfunkel, no less!) but it’s such a fun, upbeat, simplified rock version that really fits the cool Lemonheads vibe. It’s a bit taboo for me to admit this, but I kinda like it more than the original.
You have to admit, as messed up as she is, Courtney Love writes great songs. The 90’s was all about Kurt & Courtney, and they conquered the “grunge” scene. This is a good example of why Courtney ruled – Miss World has all the elements of what makes a good song.
I would name That Dog the underdog (hardy har) of the 90’s. They are the epitome of what was cool in the 90’s, and they have the best three part harmonies. If you never heard of them, here’s a good introduction, especially since this song is one of my favorites and I would have recommended it in the first place. What makes me excited is that recently reunited and they’re writing new music.
Two things you should take away from this list is that there are so many bands from the 90’s that are respectful by using their prefixes, and I apparently love the 90’s too much. Spoiler alert: I do.
