Best '90s' Songs

2011 has started and sometimes I still miss the good old things, like the best '90s' songs. The other day I was thinking how different music has become, people would say that it's improved quite a bit from the '90s'. However, I believe in the quote "Old is Gold". So here are some of my favorite songs from the '90s'.
The '90s' seem a long time ago, almost one hundred years old. Well, if you ask me it's not that far, it has only been 10 years since it ended. However, there are still some things which I feel that were good about the '90s'. There were not too many unfortunate incidents happening back then. I still remember that I was in school back then, so it's obvious that the decade of the '90s' holds a special place for me. Most of you might agree that school days are one of the best days that you live. The heartbreaks, the sports, the teachers; there was so much to learn. For every incident, good or bad in my life, I used to have a song linked to it. So, here's a collection of popular '90s' songs which are personal favorite and are still there on my tongue.
