  1. I adore the fist 2 you picked, but I can't stand Meatloaf. I'm sorry but there was no song that spent 12 weeks at #1 and was absent from this list. The one song that spent 12 weeks was Smooth. No list is perfect, but this is the closest to it we've got, and we have to live with it. I was born in '98, and honestly I would prefer some of the 80s and 90s gems than the songs from the 2000s. I mean, my favorite song of all time is a 90s song.
  2. Actually, most grunge and punk rock bands were not extremely successful as R&B artists were at the time, chart wise. Airplay and physical sales depended on the chart success in that decade, and while most of them did perform well in separate years, they did not perform well enough to enter the decade end list. R&B were the more influential zeitgeist of the 90s to be honest. More people remember the more R&B and pop hits of that decade. Songs like Candle In The Wind 199, which was the best selling single on the decade. One Sweet Day being the longest running #1 of all time, as well as being the #1 song of the 90s. The Macarena which took more than 30 weeks to reach the #1 spot, and was the #1 song of 1996, and #2 of the decade. Smooth, was the last #1 of the 90s, and reached the top 50 for both the decade end lists of the 90s and the 2000s, and was the #2 song 0f 200 and of all time. More people remember those songs than the grunge, and punk-rock songs of that era.
  3. That's fine, I respect your opinion. Every time I hear that song I always to the dance. Its so damn great.
  4. Unfortunately, Grunge, while big in the 90s, wasn't too popular to hit the decade end list, not even Smells Like Teenage Spirit. Most of the 90s could be summed up with 1 artist and 1 genre; Mariah Carey, and R&B.
  5. Don't forget self-empowerment anthems like Fight Song, Just Like Fire, what any one who hates Kelly Clarkson must think about in every Kelly Clarkson song. Maybe its juts me, but I actually like most of the big top 40 hits, because I don't mind them that much. Artists like P!nk, Sia, Justin Timberlake, Fall Out Boy, Twenty One Pilots, Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, etc. I'm just more of a mainstream music fan, that's juts who I am, but I don't hate other non-mainstream bands and artists, I respect them, and the people who like them.
  6. Well, One Sweet Day actually does have a story. The story is about death of a loved one, how the protagonist took their presence for granted and misses them, and finally about seeing the person in heaven. Both Carey and Boyz II Men wrote the song about specific people in their lives, being inspired by sufferers of AIDS epidemic, which was globally prevalent at that time. I do love soulful R&B, but I also love the more enthusiastic, and bombastic pop and rock music. And I wouldn't say rock is completely dead, I mean Fall Out Boy is still around aren't they?
  7. It was popular, but it wasn't as groundbreaking as the debuts of Mariah Carey, who had 14 #1's in the 90s alone, and had at least 1 #1 for at least 1 week in the calendar year for Billboard, making her the only artist ever to achieve such a feat. She even has the longest running #1 of all time, which was also the #1 song of the 90s, the #2 song of 1996,and the #36 song of all time. Don't get me wrong, grunge, and the punk-rock revival was seen throughout the decade (We have an Aerosmith song in the decade end list, even if it is their last #1 and their worst song IMO) and Nirvana did have a #1 hit in the decade, it just wasn't as popular to make the decade end list. I think the listening public had that big shift toward R&B and Soul with the more relaxing sound of R&B that was enjoyed throughout. If the 80s brought on New Wave, the 90s brought R&B to the front, with the revival of punk-rock and the birth of grunge. (Even if it would lead to the death of the front-man of Nirvana, and bring in awful post-grunge bands like Nickelback, Theory Of A Dead Man, Hinder, and of course, Creed)
  8. They probably never got much in terms of airplay and physical sales back then. The 90s wasn't a decade run by rock, or pop; its was run by R&B. Artists like Mariah Carey, Boyz II Men, Whitney Houston, Celine Dion, R. Kelly and Paula Abdul dominated the charts in the 90s. What I would do to actually live through that whole decade.
  9. Which of these songs are your favorites to come out of the 1990s? And before you ask where was Everybody, (Backstreet's Back) or You Are Not Alone, or any other song from that decade. the answer is it was not on Billboard's Decade end list for the 1990s. And if anyone asks, my #1 favorite is One Sweet Day. And in this poll, you can vote for more than just 1 song.
  10. I thought DreamWorks got their act together and stopped making Shrek sequels. 1 was good, 2 was great, 3 was awful, 4 was... meh. We don't want nor need a fifth movie.
  11. I've played Rivals on 5 times back in 2012/2013. I haven't played it since. (Stupid PS3 won't work properly anymore)
  12. 1. Need For Speed Most Wanted 2005 2. Need For Speed Underground 2 3. Need For Speed Most Wanted 2012 I love most of the Need For Speed games.
  13. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFIIMEe2Ht0 Her newest song for the 2016 Rio Olympics.
  14. And Sci Twi: One of the Ivy League Schools.
  15. Rainbow Falls: Rainbow acted OOC in this episode, especially before the opening theme song. (Did she seriously need to pick Fluttershy and Bulk Biceps?) The Wonderbolts, minus Soarin, acted mean-spirited and just plain jerks. This is my least favorite episode in the entire show. Mysterious Mare-Do-Well: And this is my 2nd worst episode. Rainbow's attitude and ego is so inflated, its almost flanderized in this episode. I also can't stand how her friends take matters into their own hooves and decide, not to talk to her, but make a new superhero compete against her. Its ridiculous and unnecessary. Somepony To Watch Over Me: The "moral" is destructive, basically telling kids if you want to be treated with respect and as an adult, to go out on a dangerous mission for you sibling that could potentially kill you. Also, this is like what, the 3rd episode that Applejack has been out of character before and gone crazy? Its getting really annoying when they flanderize good characters like Rainbow and AJ like this. Its even worse when they do this so many times. If I wanted a character to go crazy, Lesson Zero already done that and actually made it funny, and interesting in that episode. But this episode is not funny, or good in a moral sense of the term.
  16. For me, I think was, as Catherine put it "Macedonians, Prussians, and Romans; those aren't worthy opponents. It takes a Russian to take down a Russian; I'm Cat I'm a cat, you're a rodent!"
  17. He was... um, okay I guess, but Catherine bested Ivan obviously.
  18. I first watched videos about the show on YouTube, but I watched the first few episodes on Netflix. This was in April 2014, before the season 4 finale, and I've been hooked ever since.
  19. All I Do is win, win, win no matter what! Got money on my mind, I can never get enough! And every time I step up in the building, everybody's hands go up! And they stay there! 'Cause all I do is win, win, win, and if you goin' in let them stay there.
  20. I'm not too big with Fluttershy. I think that she is one of the most overrated characters in the series, and has gotten one of the least amount of character development in the series among the Mane 6. But, I do think she has improved in season 5 and 6, especially seen in the episode Flutter Brutter, where she actually shows some of that tough love to her brother.
