he’s poor like the rain number-10 got to
get through this Daniel Bedingfield is
gone first it needs to be noted that
this song was produced in the artists
bedroom that alone is impressive
then there’s the overall energy of the
track if there’s one thing that never
goes out of style it’s a good beat and
this song’s got a killer one gotta get
through this is a message that everybody
can relate to and with its catchy chorus
delivered by the smooth distant vocals
of Bedingfield it pulls the listener in
[Music]
essentially it had all the right
ingredients for a 2000’s pop hit and
still has what it takes to get people
moving on the dance floor
Bedingfield actually received a Grammy
nomination for this forgotten
do-it-yourself production
[Music]
number nine wherever you will go the
calling
[Music]
wonjun this song is about as catchy as
they come but it’s also got the sort of
angsty lyrics that can take you back to
your youth
Alex band’s voice is sultry and he ups
the drama with each and every verse
but it’s the powerhouse course that
makes where you will go such an
unforgettable 2000 song as it can be
applied to romantic relationships or the
pain of losing someone in any decade for
a post-grunge production it’s got quite
the epic feel whether you’re going
through a tough time or just looking to
take a nostalgia trip this hit by the
calling has got you covered
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Music]
number eight shake it
metro station there’s no ambiguity to
the meaning of this song and that’s
perfectly fine with us it’s all about
having fun and living in the moment
musically shake it has somewhat of a
teenybopper feel but Miley Cyrus’s
brother tres adds a more adult element
with his deeper vocals
given the up-tempo beat and repetitive
hook it’s a 2000 song that’s hard to
forget a catchy track that one can’t
help get into in retrospect shake it
still holds up well as a party starter
making it ideal for movies TV shows or
any type of production that wants to
connect with the youth and convey a
sense of fun
[Music]
number seven let it rock
Kevin Rudolph featuring Lil Wayne we
know what you’re thinking who is Kevin
Rudolph for a short time in 2008 he was
the guy that dominated the charts with
this rap Rock production the song
features a mash-up of musical styles and
with a title like let it rock it
unsurprisingly became a pop culture
sensation this 2000 song also reminds
that Lil Wayne had major clout back then
so much that he can make Kevin Rudolph
the star
nonetheless it’s an effective club
banger with a timeless message and a
modern sound that still holds up today
[Music]
number six it’s been a while
stained
[Music]
in this post crunch classic Aaron
Lewis’s remarkable songwriting abilities
are on full display with all its
self-loathing and existential angst it’s
been a while can easily mess with your
head turning even the best of moods into
a somber one
it’s an undeniably powerful track mixing
quiet moments of reflection with
thrashing moments of catharsis it’s a
fantastic love song for emotionally
awkward tough guys and the apologetic
lyrics makes it ideal for any I’m sorry
playlist musically it definitely sounds
like an early 2000s rock song but it’s
one that you can play over and over and
over
[Music]
number five days go by dirty Vegas when
it was released this house Jam reached
number one on the Billboard Hot Dance
Play charts days go by also won a Grammy
Award for Best Dance Recording but it’s
commercial appeal is what makes it a
lasting cultural phenomenon days go by
was featured heavily in TV promos TV
shows and even video games which could
have made it too popular for some in the
early 2000s looking back though it’s a
legit club banger and an electro track
that you can just v out to anywhere
anytime
[Music]
number four woman Wolfmother
recorded by arguably one of the most
underrated Australian rock bands of the
digital age this track will kick your
butt from beginning to end it’s got that
unmistakable classic rock feel and the
central lyric will always be relevant
[Music]
woman never slows up and Leasing her
Andrew song Dale howls away like he
really means it it’s a great road
trippin song it’s a great Jim song woman
can get you amped up quick as it’s a
perfect example of a killer modern rock
song with a heavy retro sound
[Music]
this is number one champion sound yeah
now we bout to get down
number three American boy estelle
featuring Kanye West but they give me a
Pam then I put the money in my hand
right remember Estelle perhaps not she’s
not a Beyonce or Rihanna but she’s still
an undeniably talented singer with
American boy Estelle and Kanye keep it
cool and fresh throughout the vocals are
effortless the rhymes are tight and the
lyrics are perfect for those looking for
love in the USA Estelle brings that
old-school Jazz aesthetic while Kanye
provides a modern feel in 2017
Estelle reemerged with appearances in
both Empire and girls trip reminded
people of her 2008 international hit a
song that still feels current
[Music]
number two Ocean Avenue yellow card if
you’re looking for a classic 2000s pop
punk look no further than Ocean Avenue
lyrically it taps into that feeling of
being young and ready for adventure
musically it reminds of the MTV Total
Request Live era and it’s the ideal
party job for any movie about the 21st
century high school or collegiate
experience
[Music]
Yellowcard doesn’t take themselves too
seriously with Ocean Avenue and the
course is simply infectious all in all
it stands up as a fun song about the
unknown future and the reality of trying
to figure life out one day at a time
[Music]

few honorable mentions
[Music]
number one take me out Franz Ferdinand

[Music]
here’s a 2000s classic that never gets
old it’s got everything Franz Ferdinand
begins strong with their slow build-up
before taking that musical shift that
makes take me out so memorable
the band creates a musical experience
it’s got loads of rock star bravado tons
of energy at a truly anthemic chorus
franz ferdinand takes listeners to a new
dimension in a way as take me out is not
your typical pop song
[Music]
[Applause]
it’s innovative and extremely catchy
it’s a 2000s indie rock anthem that is
the epitome of cool without trying to be
cool
[Music]
[Applause]
