Your lists are great !

It's uncanny to realize that we New Wave fans (and we all seemed to listen to the BEST New Wave back then) managed to seek out and find some delicious aural nuggets in a decade where music generally sucked. The stuff on our list

None.

As far as I'm concerned the 1990s won't be remembered for anything good.

A real lowpoint for just about everything.

I'd forgotten some of the great songs of the 90s, thanks for the reminders. My own list should have been much, much longer.

Ocean Blue - sublime.... I LOVED this band
Toad the wet sprockett - all I want

Otters, TheRob...you guys are studs! Good stuff. Question for TheRob, does that U2 "Until the end of the world" have anything to do with that Wim Wenders movie of the same name? It's a favorite of mine and I recall liking the moody elements of the soundt
