Did anyone else watch this? Which songs do you think should've been on the list...I loved it..brought back some memories and compared to some stuff today...I'm wishing for a comeback of loads of these acts!

When did that come on? I love watching the countdown-type shows on VH1. I'm sure it'll replay 4.2 million times though...

Not a single Boyz II Men song is on this list. No "The Boy is Mine". No "I Swear".

But the list is not bad. I saw part one on Monday.

Here is the full list...

ETA: If you go on the website and see how many songs weren't on the list, you would be

. They have videos of some of the songs that didn't make it.

Wow, that is terrible. "Rico Suave" and "MMMBop," but no Boyz II Men at all. Kinda makes me glad I missed it now, heh

*SMH*

I'm wondering how "Say My Name" by DC is on the list...that didn't come out in the 90's, it came out Feb 2000, if they wanted to choose one of their songs...why not "No, No, No"?

I'm mad no Boyz II Men is on there and Busta's "Put your hands where my eyes can see" is not on it..I woulda thought En Vogue's "Don't Let Go" would be on it..

we must remember this is Vh1 so they're prob basing it on their 90's playlist.

The album "Say My Name" was on (The Writing's On The Wall) came out in '99. And the reason they chose that song was it was DC's breakout song.

I can live with Mmm Bop, but Rico Suave?

And I don't know how I would have survived the 90s without BIIM.

Woo Haa!!! is my favorite Busta song. Come to think about it, why isn't Big Poppa on the list? And One Sweet Day (which is the longest running #1 on Billboard 100)? Who voted?

TotallyWicked · #8 12-21-2007, 11:27 PM

woooow..."Gangsta's Paradise" was not on the list

"Whoomp there it is"
"Gin and Juice"
"Black or White"
"Kiss from a Rose"
"Hard Knock Life"
"Boy is Mine"

Nearly made it but for some reason didn't...they coulda replaced Lisa Loeb any day

I LOVE that song (the slow version)!

For real! I'm mad they practically stopped playing it once the remix came out!

I'm surprised Boyz II Men was not on there. Also, I'm surprised that Chumbawamba's "Tubthumping" wasn't on there. That song was HUGE and (I admit) I still turn my radio up whenever it comes on.

TotallyWicked · #12 12-21-2007, 11:51 PM

I could go another day without having to listen to anything BSB, they're showing "I want it that way" right now...I am soo glad that era is over...and cannot believe I lived and survived it!

cuteASAbug · #13 12-21-2007, 11:57 PM

no Macarena?

jitterbug13 · #14 12-22-2007, 12:00 AM

Speaking of boy bands, why aren't there any songs by New Kids on The Block?

I also realize that the Humpty Dance is on the list!!

Dear VH1,

There are a lot of songs left off this list.

Agreed. While I'm at it, "Waterfalls" and "Losing My Religion" are both vastly superior to anything Britney Spears ever released. TLC should never, ever be ranked lower than Ms. Spears anywhere or in any way, shape or form.
