Subject: 90s song recommendations

Written By: Ryan112390 on 12/07/09 at 3:17 pm

Can someone recommend me some really good early-mid 90s (like 1990-1997) dance/party songs?
Also, can someone recommend me some early 90s (like say from 1990-1994) love/romantic songs (like Celine Dion)?
Finally, can someone recommend some mid 90s (like 1994-1997) R&B music?

I will answer the first one: 
"What is Love" - Haddaway(sp?)
"Good Vibrations" - Marky Mark
""Baby Got Back" - Sir Mix A Lot
"Just A Friend" - Bizmark(it's 1989 but I always considered 88-89 to be part of the early 90's)
"Can't Touch This" - MC Hammer
"Jump Around" - House of Pain
"Ice Ice Baby" - Vanilla Ice
"Baby Baby" - Amy Grant
"Jump" - Kriss Cross
"Beautiful life" -Ace of Base
"Scatman" - Scatman
The other two I have to answer later.

I'll answer you the #2 question....

"You Are Not Alone"-Michael Jackson
"I Believe I Can Fly"-R. Kelly
"All My Life"-K-Ci and JoJo
"Baby I Love Your Way"-Big Mountain (It's as good as the Peter Frampton version).
"Can You Feel The Love Tonight"-Elton John
"How do I Live"-Trisha Yearwood
"I Don't Want To Miss A Thing"-Aerosmith
"I Can't Make You Love Me"-Bonnie Raitt
"Layla"-Eric Clapton (Yes, this song was released in 1970, but Clapton did the song in 1993 unplugged).
"I Will Remember You"-Sarah MacLaughlin
"I'll Make Love To You"-Boyz II Men
And who can forget..."I Will Always Love You"-Whitney Houston

IMO-1990-1996 was a good decade for music. 1997-1999 seemed to wane, but in retrospect...is fare.

Why not?
I don't care for them but their "Quit Playing Games (With My Heart)" from 1997 isn't a bad song at all.

Yeah, that's a good one; so is their 1999 hit "I Want It That Way."
