Top One Hit Wonders of the 90's Part 4 (1993)

Well here it is the next installment of my 90's one hit wonders. The year is 1993. Some random interesting events from this year include the debut of the longest running episodic TV series, on January 11th Monday Night Raw debuted and will be celebrating its 1000th episode; the Clinton era began; the Buffalo Bills become the laughing stock of the NFL by being the first team to loose three Super Bowls in a row; the whole Waco incident happened; I got stuck delivering newspapers during the Blizzard of '93; Lorena Bobbitt causes all men to shudder after she chops of the wang of her husband and then took a drive and threw it out the car window; and the ever classic video game Doom is released.

 Some notable people that were born in 1993 were Scotty McCreery, Taylor Momsen,  AnnaSophia Robb, and Elián González. Notable deaths include Dizzy Gillespie, Audrey Hepburn, André the Giant, Brandon Lee, and Herman Munster.

Who am I kidding you didn't come here to read about 1993 you came to hear some good music. Before I start let me just say that while 92 was hard because of a lack of good songs, well 93 was the exact opposite. For 93 I had to choose from 16 songs to get my top ten and I still couldn't limit it to 10 there is a tie for the 10th video. Now for you to see my list.

1 hit wonders of the 90's Part 3 (1992)

It's time again for my list of one hit wonders. The year 1992 the the gave us President H. W. Bush puking in the lap of the Japanese Prime Minister and not even a week later Japan apologizes for forcing Korean women to become sex slaves during WWII. The year that Euro Disney opened only to be rename Disneyland Paris two years later, it was a year after that they saw their first quarterly profit. And who can forget the L.A. Riots? This year also saw Pope John Paul II issue an apology to Galileo and lift the inquisition on him even though he died 350 years earlier in his home alone because the church put him on house arrest and limited his visitors for fear of a conspiracy and heresy.

The year also gave us such celebrities as  Taylor Lautner, Olympic Gold Medalist Shawn Johnson,  Kate Upton,  Selena Gomez, Damian McGinty from Glee, Josh Hutcherson, who played Peta in hunger Games, and Miley Cyrus.

On the bright side it also gave us these one hit wonders.
