Both Unfinished Sympathy and Bittersweet Symphony are on there. Teardrop might be too, I only looked at the top 150 or 100.

no teardrop isnt as they limited themselves to one song per artist hence no "No Surprises" or "The Spark That Bled" or "Buddy Holly" or "In Bloom" or "Kool Thing" or "Push It Out"or "The Universal" etc etc etc

Much as I love Common People it wasn't big here in the U.S. so it wouldn't make any definitive top 20 list for me. I never even heard the song until sometime around 2001.

Sorry it annoys everyone so much, but Smells Like Teen Spirit should be #1 as it's the most identifiable track of the 90s. Also, Right Here, Right Now by Jesus Jones and Right Now by Van Halen should have made the top 20. Jeremy by Pearl Jam, Black Hole Sun by Soundgarden, Flagpole Sitta by Harvey Danger, One Week by Barenaked Ladies, Waterfalls by TLC, It's So Hard To Say Goodbye to Yesterday by Boyz II Men, Sex and Candy by Marcy Playground, November Rain and Don't Cry by Guns n' Roses...well, there's plenty of songs that should have been eligible for the top 20 well above the list that's there, but since I didn't like most of them I won't bother trying to recall them all.

I love Gold Sounds and it's one of my top 3 Pavement songs, and as I said Common People, but not only are they not my own top 2 songs of the 90s, I would never be so egotistical to present my own favorite songs as the definitive list for the decade as I know most of my favorites were too obscure. Granted, I still put them up as the "best of the 90s", but that's not what this list is supposed to be, is it?

EDIT: Well, now I see it's the "top 200" of the 90s, and there's no real definition of what they mean by that, so I have to presume it's just their favorite tracks of the 90s, because no other criteria explains their bizarre list.

Oh, and Outlaw, I think it was you that said "no standout tracks" on Matthew Sweet's Girlfriend? #149, title track.
