Summer Songs 2000-2009Table of Contents |
Top 200 Summer Songs of the 2000sSummer Songs come in two different varieties: Included are timeless, obvious songs like Summertime by New Kids On The Block and Summer Love by Justin Timberlake and there were songs that were played non-stop on the radio over the summer like Hot In Herre, Yeah! and Poker Face. Don’t Speak by No Doubt was released in late 1996, but stayed on the Billboard Charts for over a year, and dominated during the summer of 1997. If a song’s title or primary lyrics are about Summer, that usually bumps it in nostalgia value on our lists. Songs like Hollaback Girl and Poker Face get a beggir nostalgic/retro vote than In The End by Linkin Park for example. In many ways, older songs are easier because fewer outlast the rest from their era, songs only a decade or two old have more competition for eardrums, so this list is longer than our typical top 100 music list. We tried to combine both, the classic summer songs and songs that dominated the airwaves during the summer, with our own Pop Culture Madness look at the songs that outlasted others from their time. |
