What are 'classics' of the 90s? (music)

People as old as me grew up in the 90s, while a lot of people now on TheSite.org being born in 1990+ will have grown up in the 2000s decade. Yes, every decade has its own set of classics that is generically known to people of all ages e.g. Beatles in 1960s and earlier Michael Jackon in 1980s. I'm interested to know what teenagers (and children of tomorrow) regard as classics in my decade. E.g. I spoke to a teenager only recently who was born in 1995, who already knew about Whigfield's "Saturday Night", which charted the year before she was born. Cheers guys!
Beep boop. I'm a bot.

Livin' Joy had several hits aside from "Dreamer". "Follow The Rules" is worth tracking down.
Say what you want - Texas
Rotterdam - The beautiful south
Ditto; but was born 8 months before you.
Dubstar
Disco 2000 - Pulp ("Babies" was much better - although don't know if anyone really remembers that?)
I was never into boybands, especially with underaged boys, but if I did have to pick one, then it would have been Ultimate Kaos over Hanson any day. ("Some Girls" in late 1994)
For me 90s =
Pearl jam - even flow
Under The Bridge - Red Hot Chili Pepper
U Can't Touch This - MC Hammer
Killing In The Name - Rage Against The Machine
Everybody Hurts - R.E.M.
Jump Around - House of Pain
Today - Smashing Pumpkins
Gangsta's Paradise - Coolio
Bullet With Butterfly Wings - Smashing Pumpkins
1979 - Smashing Pumpkins
Don't Speak - No Doubt
Bulls On Parade - Rage Against The Machine
Mo Money Mo Problems - Notorious B.I.G.
Bittersweet Symphony - The Verve
Karma Police - Radiohead
Iris - Goo Goo Dolls
Scar Tissue - Red Hot Chili Peppers
All The Small Things - Blink 182
Say My Name - Destiny's Child (lol)
and some of Tricky's stuff
Was Placebo in the 90s?
I have a lot from the 80s and 70s as well. Not bad for being born in 1992
