14 Songs From The 00's That Will Fill Your Heart With Nostalgia

I think we can all agree that music from the 00's was the best ever created. From My Chemical Romance to OG Fall Out Boy there is no denying that you grew up in the best generation. I recently threw together a playlist for one of my friends and figured I should share the nostalgia with all of you as well. This started out as a top 10, but I couldn't choose just 10. So, here are 14 of the best songs from the 00's. May you re-live your youth vicariously through this article.

1. The Starting Line, "Best Of Me"


Oh, The Starting Line. Where do I even begin with them? Kenny Vasoli rocked the "Bieber haircut" before Bieber was even a thing. In late 2015, TSL released a brand new song called "Anyways" (after a nearly decade-long hiatus) that'll make you fall in love with the early-2000's pop-punk all over again. The three song 7" is available for purchase on the band's website.

2. Yellowcard, "Ocean Avenue"


Come on, you know you love this one.

3. Sum 41, "Fat Lip"


I remember jamming out to this song as I rode around on my Razor scooter in middle school. (Damn, we're getting old!) "All Filler, No Killer" was one of the best releases in pop-punk history. I also had the biggest crush on Deryck Whibley, no big deal.

4. Good Charlotte, The Anthem"

I remember running around yelling these lyrics when I was younger. Society was a bore and all I wanted to do was have fun. Now, I'm drowning in student loan debt and working like everybody else. I'm sorry that I've failed you, Joel.

5. Jack's Mannequin, "Dark Blue"


This song always makes me emotional. I saw Andrew McMahon perform it live twice last year and I may have shed a tear.

6. The Offspring, "You're Gonna Go Far, Kid"

I was in middle school when I first heard this song. One of my friends had it as his ringtone on his Motorola Razor (I know, ancient right?) and I knew it would be one of my childhood anthems.

7. Avril Lavigne, "Sk8r Boi"


We all strived to be as edgy as Avril was, but failed. This is where my obsession with black eyeliner began.

8. My Chemical Romance, "Teenagers"

I spent a lot of time thinking MCR was overrated until their break-up in 2013. I realized what a great talent the world of punk, emo, alternative music had lost and instantly regretted not seeing them live while I still could.

9. Fall Out Boy, "Dance, Dance"

It was tough for me to choose just one song from Fall Out Boy because everything from "From Under The Cork Tree," to "Take This To Your Grave" is worthy of being on this list. Even "Infinity On High," could be on here. Old school Fall Out Boy is no doubt my favorite thing on the planet. This lands #9 on my list because guyliner phase Pete Wentz is to die for, obviously.

10. Blink-182, "The Rock Show"


It was a given that something by Blink would end up on this list. They helped make pop-punk what it is today.

11. Jimmy Eat World, "The Middle"


Honestly, who doesn't love this song?

12. Senses Fail, "Can't Be Saved"

IIIIIIIII'M STUCK IN A COMA! STUCK IN A NEVER ENDING SLEEP!

13. Paramore, "Misery Business"

Don't lie, you either wanted to be Hayley Williams or be with her in 2007. Sadly, our boy, Chad Gilbert from New Found Glory (they rule, too) crushed our dreams and proposed to her in 2014. She was the queen of scene. Nobody could pull off orange hair as well as she did.

14. Silverstein, "My Heroine"


Sadly, it's time to end this article. I know, there so many songs deserving of a placeholder on my wonderful list of nostalgia but I decided to wrap it up with the one and only, Silverstein. This group is very important to me because a lot of their music hits home. I am beyond stoked that they are still making music and can't wait to catch them on their upcoming tour with Being As An Ocean and Emarosa.

And there you have it, a list of 14 of the best songs from the 00's. If you aren't crying, reminiscing about how great your childhood was and asking yourself, "What's My Age Again?" then you're doing it wrong.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
