(Finished November 13th, 2023) The Top 20 Modern Rock Tracks 29 Years Ago

Hello,

Thanks to my friends at Billboard and the Facebook group Modern Rock, here are the Top 20 songs from 31 years ago. Some of these bands and songs I’ve never heard of or at least I don’t remember them. But I really like doing these blogs, inevitably there are one or two songs that bring memories. It’s also good to discover some old music that is new to me or old music I haven’t heard in a long time.

20) Mazzy Star “Fade Into You”:

19) Soundgarden “My Wave”:

18) The Jesus and Mary Chain featuring Hope Sandoval “Sometimes Always”:

I was meh on Miss McLachlan, but this song is boring. 17) Sarah McLachlan Good Enough”:

16) Grant Lee Buffalo “Mockingbirds”:

15) Oasis “Supersonic”:

14) Cowboy Junkies “Sweet Jane”:
