'90s Slow Dance Songs

Relive Awkward School Dances With These '90s Songs

11 Reactions 980 Shares Print

Sure, the '90s were all about the bump 'n' grind songs. But while you giggled with your best friend over the racy lyrics, they certainly had no place at school dances where a chaperone would step in if any funny business went down. No, that playlist was reserved for cheesy slow dances, prompting you to grab a boy or girl and awkwardly put your arms around each other and shuffle your two left feet. Now that Valentine's Day is around the corner, we can't help but revisit the days of our first crushes with jams that will instantly transport you back to the school gym. So grab your honey, pop in that breath mint, and hit play.

Omg. Thank you for this.

This list is amazing! (Fun fact — I learned how to play All-4-One's "I Can Love You Like That" on the piano because I loved it so much circa '01.)

My middle school dances happened in the early 2000s ("Crazy" by K-Ci and Jojo and "Differences" by Ginuwine were included in those days), but I sure remember hearing some of these songs there!
