[Sir GuitarCozmo]

[Kanye]

OF ALL TIME!

[/Kanye]



There were maybe 3 songs on that list that I would listen to.

[BlobVanDam]

[zxlkho]

There were maybe 3 songs on that list that I would listen to.

Yeah, basically this. The list really doesn't surprise me that much, but I almost puked when I read it.

[Kosmo]

Woah, I just had to check out the OutKast song. That shit got played on the radio 24/7 in here.

[Zydar]

[Ultimetalhead]

There is literally one song on that entire list that doesn't make me want to shoot myself.

Sadly, blink-182 is still an occasional guilty pleasure.

[zxlkho]

blink has some pretty awesome material. I was a huge fan when I was 12 or so

[Zook]

98 3 Doors Down “Kryptonite”
69 Evanescence – “Bring Me to Life”

Besides these which were still overplayed to oblivion, but still not atrocious, this list is basically "VH1's Greatest Annoying Songs of 00s"

[Dimitrius]

Sadly, blink-182 is still an occasional guilty pleasure.

What do you mean "sadly"?!?! blink-182 is awesome!!

[Ben_Jamin]

Most of those songs are way better than what we hear on the radio now.

Aaliyah - Try Again

[Zook]

What do you mean "sadly"?!?! blink-182 is awesome!!

No they aren't. You are sadly mistaken.

Hehe see what I deed thur?

[ReaperKK]

I don't see what the big deal is.

These types of lists shouldn't be surprising.

[LCArenas]

SPOILER: They're all singles

[Ryzee]

Yeah lists like this and Yahoo's top 10 worst metal albums or whatever aren't really worth our concern.  They're not made for actual music fans.

Also let me get in on the Blink love goin on in here!  To me they jumped the shark when Travis Barker joined and they went mainstream (lol I sound like "that guy" right now but whatever) but Dude Ranch and especially Cheshire Cat are classic albums.  I was listening to the radio in my car for the first time in awhile yesterday and I almost got into a wreck from rocking out so hard when Josie came on!

Aaliyah - Try Again

You know that Aaliyah is prog right?

[ZBomber]

Jaded. I fucking hate that song, and I kind of love Aerosmith (more like a love/hate thing)

brb gonna go puke in that bush over there by the elementary school with the kids

[Dark Castle]

VH1 guys.  Not surprised in the least.  Although I'm okay with Lady Gaga, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Foo Fighters though heh.

[73109]

91 Creed – “With Arms Wide Open”
86 Aerosmith – “Jaded”
81 Bruce Springsteen – “The Rising”
69 Evanescence – “Bring Me to Life”
44 Red Hot Chili Peppers – “Californication”
15 U2 – “Beautiful Day”

Songs that don't completely suck.

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

73109

Users that don't completely understand the definition of suck.

[zxlkho]

[73109]

C'mon. Those songs are not that bad, man!

[black_biff_stadler]

The only song on that list I can unconditionally like is RHCP's Californication.

Otherwise, I could tolerate listening to Andrew W. K.'s Party Hard, Johnny Cash's Hurt, and Alicia Key's Fallin' (she's hot, legitimately talented and born on the same day as me.)

C'mon. Those songs are not that bad, man!

U2 got copied off of so relentlessly by Coldplay that they apparently began copying off of them as retaliation and Beautiful Day does little to refute that. With Arms Wide Open is gay even compared to the already-gay expectations we have of post-My Own Prison (album) singles. Aerosmith went out and got a group discount on castrations after finishing the Get a Grip tour. Evanescence is and always will be nothing more than the drippings from Cristina Scabbia's tampon. I won't comment on the Boss because I don't think I've even heard that song.

I love me some Andrew W.K.

Yup.

04 Eminem – “Lose Yourself”
03 Lady Gaga – “Poker Face”

These are all songs I like...to varying degrees.  But if I made my own list of the 100 Greatest songs of the 00s, not many of these would make the cut.

[dethklok09]

I am quite surprised that they have so many songs on this list that I don't think are that good.

[mizzl]

Radiohead got copied off of so relentlessly by Coldplay

FTFY

[lonestar]

I read that list, thinking to myself,"Oh great, time for lonestar to be a grumpy cynical old man again"(and yes, in my mind, I do refer to myself as lonestar), then I read your venomous, hateful responses, and was reassured why I love this place.  Thank you DTF.

Fucking LOL

[MasterShakezula]

The only song from this list I really like is from 99.

T'is all.

[Mr. Beale]

I was ready to come in and say this is more proof 90s mainstream >>> 00s mainstream. But Kesha??

Glad Crazy is high on the list though. Easily one of the best hits of the last decade.

[mizzl]

Yep. Very awesome pop song!

[mizzl]

Also, Lose Yourself is a very good song.
