Chasing the crown: #2 Ice Ice Baby by Vanilla Ice (59.7%), #3 Macarena by Los Del Rio (57.0%).
The ’90s gave us songs that never really left. You still know every word to “Tubthumping.” You still hear “Closing Time” at last call. “What Is Love,” “Torn,” “No Rain,” “Blue,” “Macarena” — one huge song was all it took to permanently claim a spot in the decade.
Now the real argument begins. Is the greatest one-hit wonder the song with the biggest chorus, the weirdest video, the strongest nostalgia hit, or the one that still clears every time it comes on? Vote in head-to-head battles and help settle the ’90s playlist debate.
