Definitely lists some of my favourite dance songs of the 90's. Not a bad list!

[Marie Osmond Is A Bad Mother!!]

That's a great list! I have the majority of those songs. The 90's were pretty good for dance music.

[bengino]

there is a buttload that i haven't heard in there, but the list is pretty credible however, there is one track that massively sticks out for me....

10. Un-Break My Heart Toni Braxton

on a dance chart, unless this is a remix of some sort, it's kinda hard to dance to this.

It's a dance mix. It's the Soul-Hex Anthem Mix.

The Hex Hector mix of "Un-Break My Heart" was pretty huge. I remember Toni was performing the song at an awards show (the AMA's maybe?), and out of nowhere, she suddenly broke into the dance mix for the final chorus. It was freakin' awesome.

She performed that a handful of times. I remember seeing her do it during the Billboard Music Awards for the year in which it was released.

alright cool thanks for clearing that up for me.

Bengino you've dated yourself, but anyway, great to have a new dance fan out there! There is a new compilation called "Superstars #1 Hits Remixed" that will definitely bring you up to speed, and includes the aforementioned "Un-Break My Heart" Soul-Hex mix that is indeed worthy of inclusion on any "Best of 90's" countdown.

There are, on the other hand quite a few songs here that are quite laughable, but none made my stomach hurt so much as #3 "Things Just Ain't The Same." I have no disdain for the song, nor for Deborah Cox (I like her quite a bit, in fact), but ranking this song as the 3rd biggest of the 90's is quite a good joke, indeed. I would consider it lucky if it hit #333, let alone #3. Come on!
