...and my favorite song from each album.
My personal criteria were as follows:
1. Album should have been released sometime between 1993 and 1997. I generally think that any album that was still very popular during that time counts, even if they were released before 1993. But I stuck to "released" to make it easier to narrow down. Also, the individual songs on the albums could have been released previously as is the case with many soundtracks, greatest hits or other compilations.
2. I had to have been impressed with more than half of the songs on the album.
3. It doesn't have to be "my kind of music" as long as I think it's just a good album.
4. It has to immediately bring me back to high school.
5. Popularity or "number of hits" is the last and least important factor.
6. In picking my favorite song off of the albums, specifically those off of compilations, the song had to instantly remind me of that album.
In no particular order...
