Cool lists, Paul, but I've gotta disagree with your negative summation of the songs of the 90's. The 90's was a fun decade of Frat parties, surfing, and raves for me; so I am biased. However, it was an awesome decade for Rock, Hip-Hop, and (maybe too much) Electronica. Here are some universally regarded 90's songs--not just my favorites--that could easily qualify as "Koufaxs" and "Johnsons". They are definitely not "Lerchs" or Kekiches"...
