Did I say top 50 in my title, I meant to say 20. #-o But feel free to do a top 50.

Smashing Pumpkins had some good hits in the 90s, 1979 was one of my favourites. I also like Today.

Blink 182
Australian Crawl
Bruce Springteen
Coldplay
Michael Jackson
Maybe a bit more Chilli Peppers
Regurgitator
REM
Tom Jones..

Blink 182, meh they were ok they started big when they release 'Dammit' and 'What's my age again'.

Australian Crawl finished way before the 90s, try James Reyne.

Springsteen didnt have many hits in the 90s, Philadelphia is the only one I can think of.

Coldplay started in 2001.

Michael Jackson, yeah well, he was successful in both 80s and 90s.

REM, 1991 I recall was a good year for them songs like 'Losing My Religon', 'Shiny Happy People', 'The one I love'. They were pretty good in the 90s. Also 'Whats the Frequencey Kenneth' was a good one.

Tom Jones, dont remember Tommy boy releasing any apart from "If I Only Knew", which was successful.

 

[SP]

bruce springsteen also had Secret Garden in 1996/1997, but dont think it was much of a hit

I wish the stupid radio stations would play more of this stuff.
Triple M for example, either plays a new song, or an 80s or 70s song..they seem to geglect the 90s and it pisses me off!

 

[Sun_Down]

Sorry didnt mean Coldplay..I swear Australian Crawl were the 90s...hmmm

90's is probably the the decade I listen to least

 

[CC_Eagle]

18. Tiki God - The Presidents of the USA
