Popular Songs Of 1990, Vol. 2

1990 was an interesting year for music. Much of what was popular that year sounded similar to music that had been popular the previous 4 or 5 years – in other words, like '80s music. But new sounds were emerging as well, like New Jack swing and rock/rap hybrids, to name a few. In addition, some megastars like Garth and Mariah were just coming onto the scene, hinting at their future greatness. Here's more music from this most interesting year for you to enjoy!  ~  JH
