Anyways, I have a lot more 90s rap and 90s in general, but I really loved rap at that era.  I was 12 when I raided my brother's rap collection and was listening to rap a lot earlier due to having the BOX channel down here.  I sort of grew out of rap around 2002-2003 though.

The punk rock of the 90s is what brings it out most for me

That alternative rock guitar sound. Hard to explain, but it's the most 90ish music thing to me. Off the top of my head, The Gin Blossoms have that sound.

Probably sounds weird, since I'm a dude, but Savage Garden's "I Want You" flashes me back to the summer of 1997 everytime I hear it.

It's mostly ones I didn't care for.  The 90's songs I really liked, I've listened to so many times since that they don't really remind me of anything.

Roam - B-52's 
Shiny Happy People - REM
Counting Stars - ?? 
No Rain - Blind Melon  8-P

and that one that said "The messiah is my sister"  8-P

No, the one I'm talking about says something like "She thinks she missed the train from mars, she's out back counting stars"

I should google this stuff before I post... but am too lazy sometimes.

I agree.  I liked some REM from the '80s.  They were always pretentious as hell, like one of my favorite artists Morrissey, but REM wrote some great songs early on.  In the '90s they got unbearable.  The B-52's died with Ricky Wilson in 1985.  Everything else is just the Fred Schneider band.  Kate Pierson was great when she was singing No Wave atonal screeches but she's got a voice like a hinge, hence the insufferable "Shiny Happy People"

I really tried to like Morrissey.  I thought his lyrics were great... but he had that Pink Floyd quality of most of his songs sounding the same...add the monotone voice and it just didn't work for me.  I do like "Everyday Is Like Sunday" but I don't think I could tell any of the others apart.

I liked REM in the 80's too, before all the alt bands were trying to sound like Nirvana.

I'm more of the house/eurodance guy when it comes to songs that really make me wonder "Where did the '90s go?" When I was in school in my P.E. classes, it seems like not a week would pass without hearing one of these songs for a few years. I was never crazy/aware about grunge. I always prefered the uptempo songs (not the crap of the 2000s!) Such songs really made it "the disco of the '90s".

A great 90's punk gem.

I actually do like this song, but had forgotten all about it, so it reminds me of the (pre-Nirvana) 90's.

The song you're thinking of is "stars" by hum.  If I'm not mistaken that was there only hit but I bought the album anyway and loved it.

Honestly, any song from the 90's reminds me of being a kid, but songs that hit me hard with nostalgia the most are mid-late 90's songs. I love a lot of 90's pop, R&B, rap/hip-hop, country and some rock/alternative songs.

There She Goes - Sixpence None the Richer

This song has always reminded me of being at Six Flags during the late '90s, possibly because I subconsciously recall hearing this song playing on a television or something at Six Flags during that time.

Sonny Came Home

This song reminds me of riding in the car with my mom as she was dropping me off at Kindergarten sometime during 1997-1998, and this song would often play on her car radio.

The Way

My mom and I really liked this song, and we'd always turn the volume on the radio up in the car whenever it would comem on.

Give Me One Reason - Traci Chapman
