Date: November 20th, 2017 10:37 AM Author: cowardly jew dilemma This is not the first time ive heard someone say this
Personally i think estranged is the most underrated gnr song but id still give the edge to november rain |

Date: November 20th, 2017 11:47 AM Author: Pale internal respiration so true. the chords on estranged are insane. NR had the superior video though in an era where videos mattered; estranged otoh had axl swimming with dolphins and wearing a charles mansion tshirt (which is really cool considering today).

|
Date: November 20th, 2017 11:05 AM Author: Fuchsia arrogant water buffalo I sorta feel like "Best Songs of the 90s" needs to appropriately capture the decade's zeitgeist.
Pearl Jam's "Jeremy" is a really good one as it just captures the feeling of the decade perfectly, as is Smashing Pumpkin's "Disarm" or "1979".
I also really like "Linger" by the Cranberries. |

|
Date: November 20th, 2017 11:34 AM Author: mustard home headpube nah. Jeremy only captures the feeling of the early part of the decade. the late 90's resembled the roaring 20's and had nothing in common with lyrics to be found in a teen angst alternative/grunge song.

|
Date: November 20th, 2017 11:47 AM Author: Fuchsia arrogant water buffalo well, Britney's "baby one more time" was a 90s song, but if someone asked you to to choose a song that reflected the 90s, you probably wouldn't choose that one. it's pretty indistinguishable from the aughts music imo (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3803290&forum_id=2#34730739) |
|
Date: November 20th, 2017 11:57 AM Author: mustard home headpube this is nonsense. there was a recession in the early 90s and Seattle, which is always depressed anyway, produced some very good rock music reflecting its mood. that does not = zeitgeist of a decade (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3803290&forum_id=2#34730812) |
|
Date: November 20th, 2017 12:06 PM Author: Fuchsia arrogant water buffalo i mean i get what you're saying, and i definitely think there are other musical genres that capture the 90s spirit: gangsta rap, R&B, ska/bigband, britpop, etc.
if someone suggested jump jive and wail, or gin and juice, i'd take no issue with those and think they capture the 90s well, or at least they "feel" 90s.
but the late 90s pop that was really just the precursor to the aughts pop isn't really a good choice imo. |

Date: November 20th, 2017 11:50 AM Author: Fuchsia arrogant water buffalo the ska and big band music is a good addition, and didn't bleed over into the aughts. it's completely a 90s phenomenon. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3803290&forum_id=2#34730764) |
