Please. I put on the youtube video and only looked at quickly so I thought it was 15 minutes.
 

It’s actually an hour. :deadbanana2:

I tried to find something better but somehow there is nothing out there! I’m honestly shocked.

Also eligible!


 

I want 25 slots!

If you help diversify this beyond the 2000s, then you can have them. I do hope people will remember there’s more out there than “Bad Romance” and “Since U Been Gone”!

LMAO. I just learned from this that two country hits that I remember from my childhood were actually whitewashed cover versions of R&B hits by black men.

Gjdgkfhd this almost feels like shade, since the Monsters have never gotten over “Tik Tok” blocking it on the charts.

yes - if we can exclude 2010s songs that would be great lol , I honestly think 80s, 90s and 00s will have more than enough entries and even limiting to those decades would make a great bracket (and maybe 50s 60s 70s for another separate bracket another year)

Avril Lavigne - "Complicated"
Dua Lipa - "Don't Start Now"
Dua Lipa - "Levitating"
Eve - "Let Me Blow Ya Mind" (ft. Gwen Stefani)
Fergie - "Fergalicious"
Gwen Stefani - "The Sweet Escape" (ft. Akon)
Katy Perry - "Wide Awake"
Kesha - "Die Young"
Missy Elliott - "Work It"
The Pussycat Dolls - "Don't Cha" (ft. Busta Rhymes)

 

This was really hard to dwindle down... left out some songs I thought would easily get enough votes from others just skimming the thread (a la "Since U Been Gone"). You won't find anything pre-2000s from me. :fan:

Really wanted to nominate "Stressed Out" too but I know that it would be out first match up anyways since ATRL hates men.
