10 Awesome Early to Mid 2000s Songs

Pinterest

Once upon a time, one could easily understand what a singer was saying when listening to music. Those were the days when songs weren't just about sex and drugs. Unfortunately, today's music has all gone downhill and will never be as good as it was back in the day. I will admit that there are a few songs from today that I like, but there is very few. I have taken the liberty of finding ten throwback songs from the early to mid-2000s that were really popular back when they came out. Let's take a walk down memory lane together.

1. "Hollaback Girl" by Gwen Stefani

You have to admit that this song is very catchy. The song also has a good beat to it. Believe it or not, I always think about this song whenever I try to remember how to spell bananas. "It's bananas! B-A-N-A-N-A-S!"

2. "Hips Don't Lie" by Shakira

She's right. Hips definitely don't lie.

3. "Bring Me to Life" by Evanescence

In my opinion, this song has one of those superhero/action movie vibes. Sometimes I feel like a superhero when I listen to this song.

4. "Drop It Like It's Hot" by Snoop Dogg

Hands down one of the D-O-double G's best songs.

5. "Crazy" by Gnarls Barkley

Listening to this song allows one to let out their inner crazy person.

6. "Umbrella" by Rihanna

I miss the days when you could actually understand what Rihanna was saying in her songs.

7. "Get Your Freak On" by Missy Elliot

This was one of those songs that had several people singing along to it while they were listening to it.

8. "Crazy in Love" by Beyonce

This is another one of those catchy songs that has a beat that makes you want to dance.

9. "I Don't Wanna Be In Love" by Good Charlotte

We feel you Good Charlotte, we feel you. Love hurts.

10. "A Thousand Miles" by Vanessa Carlton

To this day, I still hear people randomly singing this song. I don't blame them; I love this song myself.

Feeling any nostalgia yet? I sure am. These songs hit me right in the childhood :)

Humans and robots face off in a rock band battle with guitars and drums, under dynamic lighting.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
