The Song of the Decade

[Jinx]

As these last 10 years draw to a close please share the one song that has come out that you think best sums up this decade. As a bonus and be honest what song of the last 10 years have really stuck with you over and over again.

I'll start and while some if not most will scream blasphemy! I ask you to listen and read just the first 1:17 of the lyric's

I'm confused, "your native son"? Are you referring to Weird Al? If so he was born in California, hardly a Canadian Native.

I don't think this is the best song of the decade, but it says a lot about the 00s.

About how people hide behind anonymity of the INTERNET to proclaim deity status (and who knows what else about themselves.

But it can also be taken as an indictment of pop culture, with reality stars and celbutantes being famous for being famous, and us rewarding people for being idiots. (ref back to green day)

Or as this youtuber, posits, as a reflection of the arrogance of the Bush administration and them not needing proof to engage in preemptive destruction.

I think of it even as a position of arrogance in general, with people like Bernie Madoff and Jack Abramoff, thinking they're indestructible.

The best song of the 00s?

That's impossible. I don't know. Instead I'll just pick the most pretentious sounding

song title of the 00s --- Auberge Le Mouton Noir (That and these guys were great at the Magic Stick--good late night music)

To respond to an earlier poster (with far greater personal musical talent than myself),

I can confidently state that not only is Milkshake not the best song of the 00s, it's not even the best Kelis song of the 00s

THIS IS

I think this sums up this decade. We're all wanting to go back to happier times.
