September 1, 20204 yr Prodigy - Firestarter is a bit low on the list in my opinion. The Dodgy song might have been 'Good Enough' to have been a hit but such is the high standard of 90s indie and alternative it one of my least favourites of the genre, rather cheesy and twee so I wish it wasn't that high on the list. Surprised Travis - Why Does It Always Rain On Me is so high in the list, I mean its a good song but not one of the best 90s indie/alternative sogns in my opinion, and Travis had a better song imo- Sing - in the early 00s. My favorite in the top 10 is actually the Spin Doctors track, although the Verve track at #1 is very good.
September 1, 20204 yr Is this based on listener votes? "Radio X's most played songs from the 90s - with stats provided by PPL." is what it says on the website - seems a strange way to decide!
September 1, 20204 yr More specifically, it's based on radio airplay of 90s songs (and not just Radio X airplay - which explains why there are only 2 Oasis songs in the top 10), but only including songs that Radio X have played at least once in the past year (I heard the top 10 as my parents had it on at dinner, where they explained).
September 2, 20204 yr 14. Pulp - Disco 2000 13. Cornershop - Brimful Of Asha (Norman Cook Remix) The riffs of these two are similar
