Subject: Favourite 90s Dance Songs
Written By: whistledog on 09/06/21 at 1:53 pm
I know there have been threads before, but the links are all dead, so why not start fresh. I've been researching 90s charts lately, and man there was a lot of great songs. I will begin with one that is technically not best known as a 90s song, but in the 90s it was there and I loved it! ...
soulDecision was a boyband from Vancouver who are best known for the 2000s hit Faded. Previously, they were known as inDecision and in 1998, they released a single titled Ooh, It's Kind of Crazy that peaked at #45 in Canada and #11 on the US Bubbling Under Chart (aka US #111). They later re-released it under soulDecision in 2000 where it peaked at #18 in Canada. I still hear this song on the radio some times and it is still very enjoyable!

Here is a Latin Freestyle duo called Collage with I'll Be Loving You which peaked at US #56 in 1993. While this song did not chart here in Canada, I have a few CD compilations on which it appears. It is such a good song!

This one brings back some great memories for me. Here is I'll Be Alright by a Canadian group called MTS. This peaked at #1 on the Canadian Dance chart and #2 on the US Bubbling Under chart (US #102).

Here is Strawberry Fields Forever by an alternative dance group from England called Candy Flip. This peaked at UK #3 in 1990 and is my favourite cover of a Beatles song ever! I first heard this on a TV advertised CD compilation I had called Monster Trax and I've loved it ever since!

Here is a German group called First Base. I don't know where else this group had success, but their debut single titled Love is Paradise was a #1 hit on the Canadian dance chart in 1996. The second single by First Base was called Can You Keep A Secret? and it peaked at #51 in Canada and #1 on the Canadian dance chart in 1997.
There used to be a live dance show on MuchMusic (our MTV) called Electric Circus and I remember First Base appeared and it just blew me away how good these songs were!

This one is a actually from 1996. It says it on the back of the cover and I remember the album was released on my 16th birthday that year. This was Dance/House music at it's best!

Even though it was quite repetitive, it had quite a catchy dance beat.

Ever hear a dance version of an Air Supply song? One exists and it's really good! From 1997, here is Making Love Out Of Nothing At All by a singer named M-Appeal. This peaked at #41 in Canada

Here is a 1998 single titled Carnaval De Paris by British electronic group Dario G. Based on the folk song Oh My Darling, Clementine, this was recorded for the FIFA 98 World Cup and peaked at #5 in the UK. This is such a fantastic song, and as far as instrumental songs go in general, I think this one ranks quite high!

One of the biggest club hits of the 90s was a 1994 single titled Dreamer by an Italian group called Livin' Joy. I was such a fan of this one ...

The co-songwriter and lead singer on that song is an American named Janice Robinson and in 2018, she appeared on the UK series The X Factor and sang that very same song to try and kickstart her career. It was so good ...
