Well the title pretty much says it all. I think this might favor the younger members some but half the forum is made up of youths so I think that should be fine.

1991

1. Weather With You - Crowded House
2. Blind Willie McTell - Bob Dylan
3. Into the Great Wide Open - Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers
4. Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana
5. Castles in the Air - Hoodoo Gurus
6. Under the Bridge - Red Hot Chili Peppers
7. Little Miss Can't Be Wrong - Spin Doctors
8. I Touch Myself - Divinyls
9. Alive - Pearl Jam
10. The Show Must Go On - Queen

I made it so that only one song from each artist was considered. Metallica, Guns 'N Roses, Michael Jackson, R.E.M., Bryan Adams and Temple of the Dog were unlucky to miss out.
