Yes, I remember almost all of those. I kind of want to dig up my small collection of Now CDs (I don't have a complete album of any of those singers-- just compilations). Must. Resist. Urge.
There was a time when the only "bands" I knew of were the Spice Girls and the Backstreet Boys. OK, I take that back. I also knew about the Beatles (sorry you were in such bad company, Beatles). What can I say? I was 12 and I lived under a rock called Disney Songs. Then again, 98 degrees and Christina Auguilara (sp?) were on one Disney soundtrack. Boy, I could go on about this forever. But I'll stop now.
Call it karma. Call it luck. Me, I just don't give a... BOUNCE!
Ah, this brings me back to my high school/early college years. Oh, for the days when the lyrics to the best-loved pop songs were more complex than a mixture of 'baby', 'uhh', and 'yeah'. And when Britney and Christina weren't trashy and drug-addled.
My sisters used to listen to Summer Girls all the freakin' time. I asked one of them about it a couple months ago. Turns out it was because the song was so hilariously bad.
I'd say the music video also qualifies for that description, just from that clip.

So baby, I just wanted to say, I'll always remember the '90s pop music, as long as you love me.
Except for that second to last one. That was bizarre and I thankfully do not recall it at all.

@Ace:
I remember when that song was everywhere. Pretty sure that was their only hit. And yeah, it's horrible. XP

Yep. Even if you didn't like the songs, they were just so damn catchy.
That would be awesome. XD "Hey sis, can I borrow some of your old 90s pop CDs?"
