I think you guys are missing the point of this list... just because a song is bad doesn't mean it can't be decade defining.

Although it's a pretty dumb list

Actually, the "noughties" --> the decade whose last two digits starts with zero --> 00's.

I usually call them the "naughts" or the "oughts".

I think I must have had a mental lapse there or something. It really should have been obvious to me given the songs in the list. The dates were all over the article even. I'm reasonably fond of this decade's releases so far.
