100 best songs of the 90's

[IzzyNYC]

So, VH1 has this program running where they count down the 100 best songs of the 90's. I guess viewers submited their favs, and Sabatoge came in at 19. I thought that was kinda cool. But then #3 was a song by the Backstreet boys.

I tuned in towards the end so didn't catch what the "celeberity" commenters had to say about Sabatoge. ( I know, nobody cares what the Hansons think of the BBs)
