Why is the lead singer trying to get this girl to choose him and also insisting she buy him flowers?
Shaggy is either the best defense attorney of all time or the absolute worst defense attorney ever.
If “shimmy cocoa puff” means something sexual or illegal, please don’t let me know. I like to just pretend that Nelly really likes cereal and I don’t want that to be ruined.
I would’ve loved to have been in the room when the chorus to Mmmbop was written. Also, has anyone ever played it backwards? There has to be demonic messages in there somewhere.
I feel like the concept of this video was to take every single thing that screamed 90s and cram it into five magical minutes.
When J-Kwon brags about having a fake ID, I like to pretend he got one so he could go with Zack and Slater to The Attic and dance all night.

Do I really need to explain why Ignition is the best?
The greatest feature a car company could ever offer is to make a vehicle that instantly starts playing this song when your windows roll down.
10. Fall Out Boy – Sugar, We’re Goin Down
I will not apologize for my love of this song. Hi haters.
11. The Darkness – I Believe In A Thing Called Love
You can try to hit that high note on the chorus, but you’ll cough up blood before you actually get to that level.
Without Googling it, what does the girl say over and over in the chorus? You can’t tell me, can you? No one can!
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again; Steal My Sunshine is the best worst song of the 90s.
14. Third Eye Blind – Semi-Charmed Life
You will never find a more upbeat and charming song about drug addiction than this.
Remember the cover to this album? The one with the girl in the white tanktop with no bra? Preteen me DEFINITELY remembers it.
16. Mariah Carey – Always Be My Baby
It’s impossible to be sad while this song is playing. I want it played at my funeral so everyone dances out of the service.
Eve 6 found that perfect balance of rock and pop that wasn’t fluff, but also wasn’t Powerman 5000. A wonderful blend indeed.
18. Spice Girls – Say You’ll Be There
No one else thinks it’s oddly racist that the one black Spice Girl was referred to as Scary Spice? No one?
19. Dexys Midnight Riders – Come On Eileen
Listen to this song again and tell me it doesn’t sound like it’s ending at least three times then suddenly goes into another chorus. It’s like we’re being pranked.
20. D-12 – My Band
I’m fairly certain there are 415 different rappers on this track. Listen closely and odds are you’ll hear someone you know.
21. Color Me Badd – I Wanna Sex You Up
I have no idea what it means to “do it ’til we both wake up” but it sounds like a bit much. There’s no way you aren’t chaffing after a night like that.
No other band has tried to look more hardcore while singing the lightest pop songs. It’s hilariously awesome.
The radio edit is the best because there’s so many inappropriate words replaced with sound effects that it sounds like the guy from Police Academy being murdered.

This is one of the top three Nicki Minaj verses of all time. The other two are Monster and My Chick Bad. Don’t argue with me on this because you’re wrong. 
Summer’s Coming. Get ready by reading this.
