Mr. Brightside is probably in my top 10, certainly not #48.

Banquet by Bloc Party isn't even on their top 100?!? Hm.

Ugh, so many of those songs are shit. I can safely say rolling Stone has just shredded its last bit of credibility to me as a magazine to look to when choosing music.

I could pick apart this list all day (Kelly Clarkson?), but I'd like to know what ICErs liked this decade. You gotta start somewhere...

About 8 of their Top 20 would be in my Top 50.

#1: "Feel Good Inc." by Gorillaz.

It was a better decade for songs than proper albums. Many of those songs are quite catchy. Where's Duffy's "Mercy"? One of the all-time catchy tunes.

You're one of those people that didn't celebrate in 1999, aren't you? I hated those guys.

"Since U Been Gone" should have been higher. It would have been in my top 5. That's a severely awesome song, once you get past her AI background.

No Kaiser Chiefs = FAIL.
