    I’ll pick runaway train and Barbie Girl lol


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Supergrass - Moving ; better than Bjork

    Alice In Chains - Down In a Hole ; going for the one that isn't cheesy in this one

    Hole - Malibu ; my pick and one of my absolute favourites unfortunately up against stiff competition

    Coolio - Gangsta's Paradise ; its a '90s classic, I do love Time To Say Goodbye as well though

    My picks are:

    Supergrass - Moving. Mainly cos i've never heard the other song

    AIC - Down in a Hole. Amazing song. Still sounds great to this day.

    Lenny - Fly Away. A huge song (not that malibu wasn't). Song was everywhere back in the day. Its brilliance is its simplicity

    Coolio - Gangsta's Paradise. Tough one this. I chose this because any time i hear it, it brings me back to the time I first heard it, I think on the old VH1 channel

    Supergrass - moving, love this song! Now I wonder if someone nominated their huge hit '"Alright"?

    Props to whoever nominated Saint Etienne, would have done it myself had I remembered it!

    MC Hammer- Like the song but again...

    Lenny Kravitz - Good song, but again....

    Can’t miss this round, one of mine is here!

    The Shamen - Ebeneezer. Catchy tune. Can’t remember the other.

    Sixpence None the Richer. Nice tune. Fed up of the other.

    Tom Petty - Yer so Bad. Great lyrics and guitars...and my nominations! Don’t like the other anyway.

    Stereo MCs - nice tune. Don’t like the other.

    Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Scar Tissue - great song, and haven't even heard the other before.

    Sixpence None The Richer - Kiss Me - both great choices, but prefer this one.

    The Stone Roses - Waterfall - for some reason would have thought this was pre-90s, but great song.

    Duran Duran - Ordinary World - far from the best Duran Duran song, but still a great tune.

    Scar Tissue - BECAUSE I NOMINATED IT WAAAAHHEEEEEYYYYYYY

    I Will Always Love You

    Waterfall

    Ordinary World


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,301 ✭✭✭✭gerrybbadd


    RHCP - Scar Tissue. Mega Song. I'm back playing snooker in my local everytime i hear this one

    Whitney - I will Always Love You. One of the biggest songs of all time. Better than that other cheesy song

    Gonna abstain from Stone Roses v Petty - don't know either song

    Duran X 2 - Ordinary World. Iconic. Still play it to this day. Again, a simple song, but brilliant.
