Music is a huge part of our lives and our society. There are so many different genres and types of music that people listen to. From old school rap to R&B soul, we have grown up listening to music and it has been quite a rollercoaster. We've had a lot of great songs and some... well... not so great. During our middle school years in the mid 2000's, we all had iPod's or maybe even CD players and we enjoyed a variety of great songs and artists.

All in all, these were and still are some pretty great songs. They bring us back to our embarrassing middle school days. We all remember playing these songs on repeat and trying to learn the lyrics to impress our friends. We haven't heard form some of these artist in years. But it's time for them to come back and make some more great songs. Until then, I guess we'll just have to listen to 'Closer' being played on the radio every half hour.
