[kj] Top 50 songs of 2000-2010

[Jim Harper]

Okay, here's my contribution to this mass debate. As some of you will probably not, it's a Top 40 rather than 50. I just couldn't come up with 50 without adding 3 or 4 songs from many artists/groups. As it is I had to select 2 songs from certain artists. My music tastes are a lot more album-oriented that song-oriented, but about a dozen of my choices come from artists who I wouldn't otherwise listen to; 'The Middle' is a fantastic tune, but I don't own anything else from Jimmy Eat World and haven't heard anything I've liked as much as 'The Middle'.
 
Anyway, here goes:
 
AFI- Girl's Not Grey
A Perfect Circle- Judith 
Biffy Clyro- Mountains
Buck-Tick- Romance/Muma: The Nightmare 
Damage Manual- Sunset Gun 
Dandy Warhols- Get Off/We Used To Be Friends 
D'espairsRay- Garnet/Sixty-Nine 
Fear Factory- Linchpin 
Gackt- Ash/Lust For Blood  
Garbage- Cherry Lips (Go Baby Go!) 
Idlewild- You Held The World In Your Arms/American English 
Jimmy Eat World- The Middle 
Kerli- Creepshow/Fragile 
Killing Joke- Blood On Your Hands/Seeing Red 
L'Arc-en-ciel- Ready Steady Go 
Marilyn Manson- The Fight Song/Heart-Shaped Glasses   
Michael Andrews & Gary Jules- Mad World    
Moby- Extreme Ways 
Nana Kitade- Kesenai Tsumi 
Nine Inch Nails- The Hand That Feeds 
Nelly Furtado- Turn Off The Light   
Origa (w/ Yoko Kanno)- Inner Universe/Rise  
Paul Oakenfold- Ready Steady Go     
Recoil- Strange Hours    
Robyn- With Every Heartbeat 
Rob Zombie- Never Gonna Stop 
Schwein- You're My Disease 
Scott Matthew (w/Yoko Kanno)- Lithium Flower 
Sugababes- Hole In The Head 
Type O Negative- I Don't Wanna Be Me/Life Is Killing Me 
 
Let the spewing of bile begin ;)
