6 Songs From the 2000s That Turned Us All Into Pop Stars, Break Out That iPod Nano And Rock Out

Even though our microphones were hairbrushes, we could rock along with the best of them.

6 Songs From the 2000s That Turned Us All Into Pop Stars, Break Out That iPod Nano And Rock Out

Picture this: You're back in middle school. You've just gotten off the school bus and have kicked off your turquoise Vans to the corner of your bedroom. "Tiger Beat Magazine" posters cover every inch of your boring, beige walls and you collapse on your tousled twin bed. Digging out your iPod Nano from the depths of your backpack, you plug in and set your imaginary stage.

If you're like me, this was a very real daily routine back in the golden years of youth. These are six 2000's songs that could turn anyone into a bedroom rockstar.

1. "This Is Me" - Demi Lovato

The anthem of middle schoolers everywhere, "This Is Me" by Demi Lovato in the beloved movie, "Camp Rock," always lifted the spirits as well as the self-esteem while you lip-synced into your hairbrush and imagined singing alongside Joe Jonas *swoon*.

2. "7 Things" - Miley Cyrus

You're a scorned girl; the boy you have a crush on didn't admit to his forbidden feelings for you when you *67-ed him at the sleepover with your friends last weekend. In retaliation, you blast this classic Miley hit and get all of your feelings out... at least until you see him in homeroom again and start all over.

3. "Burnin' Up" - Jonas Brothers

This lovely number never failed to cheer up a dragging youngster and enhance their rockstar imagination. Include two of your very best friends in the fun and your trio could have taken over the world. Or at least the after-school snack session.

4. "We're All In This Together" - East High

Don't try and deny it; we've all known the dance moves to this song at one point or another. Whether in the school gymnasium or alone in your room, this anthem to teen unity brings all the feels.

5. "Nobody's Perfect" - Hannah Montana**

This song always came in handy after a bad haircut or a nasty breakout reared its ugly blackheads. Even as a fictional character, Hannah gave us the perfect song to blast on the boom box when you were feeling the need for a pick-me-up.

6. "Play My Music" - Connect 3**

Being a big-time [bedroom] rockstar means we need a song to describe our absolute and pure love for music, a love that reaches down deep into our soul. Luckily, our favorite 2000s trio provided the perfect anthem to sing to the family cat as he lounges in your bedroom.

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.
