Biggest songs of the 2000's?

[Guest tiarnantman]

What do you reckon are/were the biggest songs of this decade? Not necessarily the best songs, but the ones that people would look back on and remember clearly.

In case you need to know why I'm making this topic, I wanna make a CD, but I was looking for a few more opinions.

So far I've come up with:

'Chasing Cars', by Snow Patrol;

'Hero', by Enrique Iglesias;

'You're Beautiful', by James Blunt;

'Teenage Dirtbag', by Wheatus;

'Rock DJ', by Robbie Williams.

What others d'you reckon? I'm sure there'll be some clashes of opinion here, but we'll see.

Hey There Delilah by Plain White Tees

[Iain76er]

Hey Ya- OutKast, is the correct answer.

[Guest tiarnantman]

Oooh, I need 'Hey There Delilah'. Don't know how I forgot about that one. Not so sure about Outkast, although I'll stick it in the 'maybe' pile.

[Trey]

In Da Club by 50 Cent falls into that category also, it was on all the fucking time.

[tristy]

Bring Me To Life, obviously.

[Guest tiarnantman]

Bring Me To Life, obviously.

[nihilist]

Take Me Out- Franz Ferdinand

Can't Stand Me Now- Libertines

Last Nite, 12.15, Juicebox- Strokes

Red Morning Light- Kings of Leon

Golden Touch- Razorlight

That's the way I see it anyway.

Umbrella - Rihanna

Crazy - Gnarls Barkley

Rock DJ - Robbie Williams

Can't Get You Out of My Head - Kylie Minogue

Crazy In Love - Beyonce

These are the ones that spring to mind. I don't really like any of them save for the first two.

Umbrella, About You Now, Heartbroken

Some of the biggest songs of not only 00's but last year. Umbrella specifically. Possibly come 2010 could it theoretically have been the biggest song of the decade, and in my eyes there's 3 years to knock it off.

[Dingle]

Shit...Rock DJ was this decade? Weird.

It's been a sad couple of years for big songs the past few years, Umbrella, About You Now and James Blunt being big I have major issues with, but such is life.

I'm thinking Rockstar will be a hell of a lot more memorable than 'This is How...'.

[Nerf]

Stronger.

[King Ellis]

t.a.t.u - All The Things She Said

Eminem - Real Slim Shady

Artic Monkeys - I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor

Britney Spears - Oops I Did It Again

Limp Bizkit - Rollin'

You haven't heard Hero by Enrique?

Fucking seriously?

[Farmer Reil]

Clearly DJ Sammy - Heaven.

Even I liked that song.

Britney Spears - Toxic was played to death, so I assume people probably liked it ¬_¬

White Stripes - 7 Nation Army, Icky Thump

Coldplay - Clocks

Black Eyed Peas - Where Is The Love?

Justin Timberlake - Cry Me A River

Kylie Minogue - Can't Get You Out Of My Head

Avril Lavigne - Complicated (or Skater Boy, whichever)

Bodyrockers - I Like The Way You Move

The Killers - Mr. Brightside

Take Me Out by KillerFranz RazorPatrol. Let's face it, they're all the same band, and I can't remember which version of them did that song

[Guest Mr. Potato Head]

Avril Lavigne - Complicated

Vanessa Carlton - Thousand Miles

Jimmy Eat World - The Middle

That was like the worst summer ever

Also Green Day - Boulevard of Broken Dreams

Also got to add Feel Good Inc and Crazy by Gnarls Barkley. You could not get away from these songs when they came out. Crazy was a good song as well, but it was ruined by the 25th time it was sandwiched between Rihanna and then talked about by people who thought that Gnarls Barkley was the one person.

[Liam]

Not necessarily on the huge level of others, but I always thought QOTSA - No One Knows would be one on the more alternative scale that might hang around for a while.
