Britpop Cool or Boyband Heat
Let the Bingo Battle Begin
The ’90s was a glorious, chaotic mixtape of pop culture. It was the decade of bucket hats and frosted tips, of Nokia ringtones and dial-up tones. And when it came to music, we were loyally divided.
Were you team Oasis or team Take That? Did you dab along to Spice Girls in secret or blast Blur between bingo rounds?
At Zingo Bingo, we say why not both? Whether you're dancing in The Boogie Lounge or chilling in Retro Grid 75, these ’90s anthems are perfect companions for every kind of bingo night.
Need bingo music ideas for your next session? We've got you covered.
Team Britpop
The Anthems That Defined a Rebellion
🎧 Blur – “Song 2” (1997)
WOO-HOO. This fuzzy rock banger is short, sharp and perfect for a fast-paced jackpot bingo round.
🎧 Oasis – “Wonderwall” (1995)
This anthem lives in karaoke booths and bingo hearts alike. Perfect for a laid-back night in The Zingo Lounge.
🎧 Pulp – “Common People” (1995)
Jarvis Cocker’s storytelling pairs beautifully with a tense 90-ball bingo game. Social commentary with a side of dab in The Main Stage.
🎧 The Verve – “Bitter Sweet Symphony” (1997)
Melancholy, majestic and perfect for a retro bingo playlist. Best paired with an evening in Nineties Reloaded.
Team Boyband
Harmonies, Haircuts and Heartthrobs
🎧 Backstreet Boys – “I Want It That Way” (1999)
An emotional singalong moment to carry you through a suspenseful final number call in The Weekly Whirl.
🎧 Take That – “Back for Good” (1995)
Heartbreak meets harmony. The perfect track for a rainy afternoon bingo session in The Penny Arcade.
🎧 NSYNC – “Bye Bye Bye” (2000)
This bop brings big energy to Friday night bingo sessions in The Glam Slam.
🎧 Boyzone – “No Matter What” (1998)
A bingo room wind-down essential. Perfect between games or when your chat room’s feeling sentimental in The Zingo Lounge.
Why These Songs Still Slap in the Bingo Room
These hits brought drama, romance and rhythm. Just like a classic game of bingo. Whether you were sulking in a Blur hoodie or screaming BSB lyrics into a hairbrush, these tunes live on in our hearts and now in our bingo rooms.
At Zingo Bingo, we curate the perfect tracks for every themed event. That’s why these 90s anthems are must-haves for any retro bingo playlist.
