I'm really obsessed with making playlists on itunes, so I was hoping you guys could help me out.
Put your favorite songs from the 90's here, Rock, Country, whatever.
Thanks.

Haha! This is so funny, because yesterday I listened to the 90's station on Sirius all day, and I heard almost all these songs listed. And I was going to start a thread today about fave songs of the 90's! Weird!

I dont know what it is...just cant stand Garth Brooks. There are a few songs I can tolerate. I guess what bugs me so much is that everyone says he is THE GREATEST country singer and to me he sounds so much like alot of other singers and I think some of the singers who have a better voice and better songs dont get the recognition they deserve. (sorry for the thread hijack LOL) that list you posted though Nikki I love them ALL!! And something I learned the other day which I did not know the lead singer of Montgomery Gentry is John Micheal Montgomery's brother!! I was like wow they sound NOTHING alike LOL.

LOL, then you need to head to Yukon...DH gets annoyed with 'Garth Brooks this', and 'Garth Brooks that'. He even refuses to eat in the Wendys there because of the Garth Brooks corner of the dining area. *rolling eyes*---men.

LOL My cousins love him and so does my daughter and husband. My husband tells me all the time he is the BEST country music singer. I just dont think so...I can think of a dozen who are far better IMO. Conway Twitty for one. Johnny Cash another. Kenny Rogers one more. Toby Keith one more. I dont know why I dont like him because everyone around me seems to love him LOL. I do like a few songs by him...The Red Stroke, We Shall Be Free, HonkyTonk Bar Association. There are probably a few more I can list that are good to ok songs. He just isnt one I really get into much.
Jessica, I can't believe you don't like Garth Brooks, I love him.
