The whole "August and Everything After" album stands out for me, this is just a representative song.

Closer lyrics:

You let me violate you, you let me desecrate you
You let me penetrate you, you let me complicate you
Help me I broke apart my insides, help me I've got no soul to sell
Help me the only thing that works for me, help me get away from myself
I want to fuck you like an animal
I want to feel you from the inside
I want to fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed
You get me closer to god
You can have my isolation, you can have the hate that it brings
You can have my absence of faith, you can have my everything
Help me tear down my reason, help me its' your sex I can smell
Help me you make me perfect, help me become somebody else
I want to fuck you like an animal
I want to feel you from the inside
I want to fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed
You get me closer to god

Through every forest, above the trees
Within my stomach, scraped off my knees
I drink the honey inside your hive
You are the reason I stay alive

Great 90s debut by Rage Against the Machine...

Can't narrow it to one!  Love the previous post Nine Inch Nail's Closer selection too. Trent Reznor is
yummy.
I listen to metal and rap during the beginning of my cardio work out and I have to add Nine Inch Nails
"Beside You In Time" and "The Hand That Feeds" to this post.  Don't forget Bush, Beck and Butthole
Surfers (love to know the story on how they came up with that name) Garbage and Belly from that era.

Cool topic for discussion Brooke!

I would go with What's The Story Morning Glory album by Oasis

Something has to change.
Un-deniable dilemma.
Boredom's not a burden
Anyone should bear.  

Constant over stimu-lation numbs me
and I wouldn't have
It any other way.  

It's not enough.
I need more.
Nothing seems to satisfy.
I don't want it.
I just need it.
To feel, to breathe, to know I'm alive.  

Finger deep within the borderline.
Show me that you love me and that we belong together.
Relax, turn around and take my hand.  

I can help you change
Tired moments into pleasure.
Say the word and we'll be
Well upon our way.  

Blend and balance
Pain and comfort
Deep within you
Till you will not have me any other way.  

It's not enough.
I need more.
Nothing seems to satisfy.
I don't want it.
I just need it.
To feel, to breathe, to know I'm alive.  

Knuckle deep inside the borderline.
This may hurt a little but it's something you'll get used to.
Relax. Slip away.  

Something kinda sad about
the way that things have come to be.
Desensitized to everything.
What became of subtlety?  

How can it mean anything to me
If I really don't feel anything at all?  

I'll keep digging till
I feel something.  

Elbow deep inside the borderline.
Show me that you love me and that we belong together.
Shoulder deep within the borderline.
Relax. Turn around and take my hand

I got nothing.

I'm still looking for my 90's favs but accolades to Tom Morello, one hell of a guitarist!

Me too, I got nothing either. I'm looking really hard though to impress the extremely sexy OP. I have to try harder since I'm a substandard hobbyist

Black Velvet - Allannah Myles

And not just the song, the album is great, Canadians rock!

Duran Duran - Come Undone 1993

Depeche Mode - Policy of Truth 1990

Veruca Salt, kittie and Mazzy Star!  

I will leave out the bands of ex-boyfriends.  I went through a musician phase

XXX-Giselle Parker

Technically that is an 80s song, released in 1989.

END OF MESSAGE

Actually the whole Odelay album defined my mid-90s

It wasn't released in the US until 1990. Who cares about Canada?

When I was a teenager I smoked a lot of pot, haha.  
Oasis Champagne Supernova Lyrics
 Send "Champagne Supernova" Ringtone to your Cell
Songwriters: GALLAGHER, NOEL
How many special people change?  
How many lives are living strange?  
Where were you while we were getting high?  
Slowly walking down the hall  
Faster than a cannonball  
Where were you while we were getting high?  
Someday you will find me  
Caught beneath the landslide  
In a champagne supernova in the sky  
Someday you will find me  
Caught beneath the landslide  
In a champagne supernova  
A champagne supernova in the sky  
Wake up the dawn and ask her why  
A dreamer dreams, she never dies  
Wipe that tear away now from your eye  
Slowly walking down the hall  
Faster than a cannonball  
Where were you while we were getting high?  
Someday you will find me  
Caught beneath the landslide  
In a champagne supernova in the sky  
Someday you will find me  
Caught beneath the landslide  
In a champagne supernova  
A champagne supernova  
'Cause we don't believe  
That they're gonna get away from the summer  
But you and I will never die  
The world's still spinning around we don't know why  
Why-why-why-why-i-i  
(Guitar solo)  
How many special people change?  
How many lives are living strange?  
Where were you while we were getting high?  
Slowly walking down the hall  
Faster than a cannonball  
Where were you while we were getting high?  
Someday you will find me  
Caught beneath the landslide  
In a champagne supernova in the sky  
Someday you will find me  
Caught beneath the landslide  
In a champagne supernova  
A champagne supernova  
'Cause we don't believe  
That they're gonna get away from the summer  
But you and I will never die  
The world's still spinning around we don't know why  
Why-why-why-why-i-i  
(A really long guitar solo)  
(Background - sounds like a bunch of "No"'s)  
(Birds chirping)  
(More guitar)  
How many special people change?  
How many lives are living strange?  
Where were you while we were getting high?  
We were getting high

This has always been a song that reminds me of my life.  

 
Dilate Ringtone  Dilate Ringtone
"Dilate"

life used to be life-like
now it's more like showbiz
i wake up in the night
and i don't know where the bathroom is
and i don't know what town i'm in
or what sky i am under
and i wake up in the darkness and i
don't have the will anymore to wonder
everyone has a skeleton
and a closet to keep it in
and your mine
every song has a you
a you that the singer sings to
and you're it this time
baby, you're it this time

when i need to wipe my face
i use the back of my hand
and i like to take up space
just because i can
and i use my dress
to wipe up my drink
i care less and less
what people think
and you are so lame
you always dissapoint me
it's kind of like our running joke
but it's really not funny
and i just want you to live up to
the image of you i create
i see you and i'm so unsatisfied
i see you and i dialate

so i'll walk the plank
and i'll jump with a smile
if i'm gonna go down
i'm gonna do it with style
and you won't see me surrender
you won't hear me confess
'cuz you've left me with nothing
but i've worked with less
and i learn every room long enough
to make it to the door
and then i hear it click shut behind me
and every key works differently
i forget everytime
and forgetting defines me
that's what defines me

when i say you sucked my brain out
the english translation
is i am in love with you
and it is no fun
but i don't use words like love
'cuz works like that don't matter
but don't look so offended
you know, you should be flattered
and i wake up in the night
in some big hotel bed
and my hands grope for the light
and my hands grope for my head
the world is my oyster
the road is my home
and i know that i'm better
off alon

You are my hero! I used to LOVE kittie! It made me wanna be a drummer! ( I never did learn... even though I bought a drum set LMAO)

I'm personally more of a grunge fan, but watching those old shows sure bring back memories

You reminded me and I just heard Fade into You on the radio a few days ago. Every time I hear that song, I think of you
