September 3, 200818 yr Metallica - Enter Sandman Counting Crows - Mr. Jones Vanilla Ice - Ice Ice Baby Pearl Jam - Jeremy What? No MC Hammer from a guy called HammerTime? A sad day indeed. :cry:
September 3, 200818 yr ^ Patience young grasshopper... Your truly MC Hammer - Can't Touch This. Just an FYI my name isn't from MC Hammer.
September 3, 200818 yr Your truely MC Hammer - Can't Touch This. That's better! :thumb: I thought of someone no one has listed yet. I don't care for him but Garth Brooks deserves his props. He sold boatloads of records in the 90's and you couldn't go anywhere with a jukebox for about 4 years without finding somebody playing "Friends in Low Places." Not in my personal Top 10 but if we were doing a Top 10 based on overall popularity and sales he would be in the thick of it.

Millions of people also watch (un)reality TV shows, but that doesn't make them quality programming.
September 3, 200818 yr Millions of people also watch (un)reality TV shows, but that doesn't make them quality programming. Just because YOU don't like Garth doesn't mean that should be left off the list it was numbers wise one of the best songs of the 90's.
