[ashbeeigh]

They're starting to come out. I love these lists. And they always turn in to epic threads. Here's what Billboard has put together 1-10.

1. Daniel Powter - I've Had a Bad Day
2. Terror Squad- Lean Back
3. Crazy Town- Butterfly
4. Mims- This is Why I'm Hot
5. D4L - Laffy Taffy
6. You're Beautiful -James Blunt
7. Gnarls Barkley-Crazy
8. Blu Cantrell - Hit 'Em Up Style
9. Bo Bice- Inside Your Heaven
10. Dream- He Loves You Not

They added Youtubes of all the songs which is certain to bring back the memories.

Here's the full list.

7 of those are choderegulators favorite songs

[Duff McCartney]

10. Dream- He Loves You Not

I actually bought a poster of them back in 2001 which I still have. They are so freaking hot. All of them were fantastic looking. I had the biggest thing for Ashley...she was the blonde with the short hair.

They basically imploded with their second album..it was pure crap. I think maybe they might have done something had they gone in a different direction musically. They were trying to remake the same thing again.

I hear they are making a comeback although I doubt they'll have success again. That type of music is pretty much gone.

[Rip-Hamilton32]

gnarles barkley is still good IMO just not radio music

[Frenzy]

4. Mims- This is Why I'm Hot

worst...just argh..

[resistanze]

Throw some D's on that Bitch!

[cornbread]

3. Crazy Town- Butterfly

These douche bags didn't even write the riff that made them a one-hit wonder. They ripped it off from the Chili Peppers.

[CuckingFunt]

Strange to think of Gnarls Barkley as a one hit wonder, considering how much both of their CDs get played at my house.

Everything else on that list is a massive pile of steaming crap, for the record.

[Spurminator]

What a godawful decade for popular music.

[jaffies]

wasn't "Mambo #5" in 2000?
should be in the top 5 if so.

[mookie2001]

no mambos older


i wonder why didnt they list the artist for youre beautiful- thats a steve nash song right?

[IronMexican]

Mambo was deeper down the list.

Oversight on my part. I updated it. The whole list is linked in the original post.

[Viva Las Espuelas]

I remember Mambo from the late summer/fall of 99 when I started my second year of college. It was Mambo, that Len son "Steal my Sunshine", and Wild, Wild West + Livin La Vida Loca as the songs every pop station blasted that year.

I liked Fastball's "The Way" as a one hut wonder from that time too.

[mookie2001]

nothing was worse than that song i like girls that wear ambercrombie and fitch from around 99

that was a new level of commericalism

len was pretty good they had a song called " man of the year" with biz markie that was badd, that was when napster changed the world

[Cant_Be_Faded]

mookie, i think that abercrombie and fitch song was by some boyband called LFO

[mookie2001]

that was the song playing when you got that minor in possession of tobacco ticket

HAHAHAHAA

that song made eminem look like lightnin hopkins and bo diddley live at freeman coliseum

chinese food makes me sick

[Cry Havoc]

Teenage Dirtbag Baby by Wheatus.
Because I got High by Afroman.

[Vince's Ass]

Thong Song-Sisqo

[JudynTX]

I've never heard of anyone on that list.

[mrsmaalox]

I definitely think the "Who Let the Dogs Out?" band should be on that list.

[The Gemini Method]

Quite puzzled by Gnarls Barkley being on the list. They've got some other work that suffices them to be placed outside this list, but that isn't within my ability to decide who is on the list or not. They should, at the very least, get a nomination for this decade's most creative band/group/act name.

[Duff McCartney]

mookie, i think that abercrombie and fitch song was by some boyband called LFO

That was a neat song. Stupid no doubt but neat. I liked it..and they had another one that I really liked. The Summer Girls song is the one you're thinking of, their song Every Other Time on their second album is fantastic. It reminds me alot of one of my cousins in Atlanta, might be why I have a special place for it.

Do you have a Y chromosome? Seriously. Dream and LFO are on your favorites of the 2000s list? Lame.

[ATRAIN]

Thong song

[Duff McCartney]

When did I ever put that they were my favorites of the 2000s? I just simply said that I liked the songs they had. I'm not proclaiming to be on par with Lennon/McCartney, just simple saccharine songs that have no weight behind them.

If I had to choose one band that was the best of the 2000s..as in they first came out this decade, I'd have to choose The Killers. I think they are the best band to come out this decade.

[Dr. Gonzo]

Why aren't Los Lonely Boys on that list? They sucked hard.

[MannyIsGod]

Gnarls Barkley on that list is funny. Definitely not a one hit wonder.

[MannyIsGod]

Not as funny as Ashbeigh calling Duff a girl though.

Admitting you like Abercrombie and Fitch, the Dream song, etc...I bet you loved s Club 7 and Eden's Crush too.. defaults you into the XX category. Sorry.

[mookie2001]

savage garden diet cherry cola song!

that was a classic too, from the 90s though

Co-sign on both of those statements.

[Duff McCartney]

I don't even know who Eden's Crush is. I do know who S Club 7 is, and no I didn't like them. Nor did I ever say I loved either LFO or Dream. I said I liked the songs for what they are, simple pop songs, and mostly Dream because all 4 of the girls are hot.

[Whisky Dog]

Dude, letting ashbeigh troll your ass = fucking weak. So you liked dressing in panties and lipstick and dancing around your room to "He Loves Me Not". So what. Stop explaining yourself.

chica chica cherry cola

[Spurminator]

Was "Breathless" by The Corrs from this decade? That's a guilty pleasure...
