Bonus #11 song:
Drive Somewhere - Vulgar Boatmen

Your bonus song is denied. Drive Somewhere is from the You and Your Sister album, released in 1989. Y'all got to wake up pretty early in the morning to get something Vulgar Boatmen-related past me, people.

Lali Puna existed in the 90's?

Oddly enough No Rain is the only song in that top 10 which I still don't hate.

We haven't mentioned Marcy Playground - Sex and Candy in here. Do we hate it?

1. Whale - Hobo Humpin Slobo Babe

I think that's all that's really needed.

I was listening to this one earlier. It's great.

The nineties are still weird for me. I frequently reacquaint myself with songs from then that I like, but at the same time I barely give a fuck.

I always forget when records are from, especially when they are new (to me)

Mine would probably be 6 old skool hardcore/jungle tunes, 2 Carcass tunes and Don't Let Go by En Vogue.

chap otm

Realised I left myself one choice, which would obviously be Regulate.
