10 Nostalgic Songs From The '90s

On my way to school this morning, two songs came on the radio that were from the ‘90s, and they weren’t just any ‘90s songs – because for some reason, these songs triggered my feelings more than most older songs from that decade that come on the radio here and there. I couldn’t help but feel an especially powerful sense of nostalgia, and it was absolutely awesome! I immediately thought to share it with you.

Music, like smells, has a special ability to grab a hold of my heartstrings and bring me straight back to my childhood. And I can’t lie, I definitely enjoy reliving the times when smart gadgets weren’t a thing, "Rugrats," "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air", and "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" ruled our world, jellies were in style, and of course, Tamogatchis kept us up all night.

I’ve created a list of 10 songs from the ‘90s that really excite me and hopefully will remind you as well of your inner ‘90s kid, even if you weren't born in the 90s ;). Enjoy!

1. "Iris" by Goo Goo Dolls (1998)


2. "Truly Madly Deeply" by Savage Garden (1997)


3. "I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing" by Aerosmith (1998)


4. "Wannabe" by The Spice Girls (1996)

5. "Mr. Jones" by Counting Crows (1993)


6. "Macarena" by Los Del Rio (1993)


7. "Barbie Girl" by Aqua (1997)


8. "You Can't Touch This" by MC Hammer (1990)



9. "I Want it That Way" by The Backstreet Boys (1999)



10. "I'm Too Sexy" by Right Said Fred (1992)


And there you have it -- neon colors, the era of the grunge, frosted tips, the beginning of dance crazes and today's very best karaoke songs.

There's nothing like a little bit of the '90s to brighten your mood. Take a stab at listening to some of these, and before you know it you'll be singing "Hit Me Baby One More Time" in the shower all over again.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
