13 Songs To Put In Your 2000s Throwback Playlist

Between the years of 2000-2010, we were gifted with some of the best, most memorable music of all time. There's a song for nearly every occasion and emotion. When making your perfect throwback playlist, make sure to include these gems in the mix.


1. Yeah! by Usher (2004)

This song has to top my list because it is my all time favorite guilty pleasure song. Featuring Lil Jon and Ludacris, it never fails to make me dance in my car, endangering literally everyone else on the road.

2. Ignition (Remix) by R. Kelly (2002)

So baby give me that toot toot. Let me give you that beep beep. Iconic.

3. Oops!...I Did it Again by Britney Spears (2000)

The first pop queen of the early 2000s

4. Promiscuous by Nelly Furtado ft. Timbaland (2006)

If you rap both part perfectly and no one is around to hear it...you should still feel proud of yourself.

5. Mr. Brightside by The Killers (2004)

If you're anything like me, you know every single word to this song, but have no recollection of trying to learn the lyrics.

6. Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It) by Beyoncé (2008)

As a small child with no interest in dating at the time, this was my JAM

7. Hips Don't Lie (2005)

You probably still reference this song in your day to day life.

8. Hot in Herre (2002)

Every time it gets too hot in the summer, be honest, you sing this.

9. Poker Face (2008)

I'm still not sure what all the lyrics mean, but that won't stop me from singing along anyways

10. Tik Tok (2010)

I was still in middle school when this first released, but I still jammed just as hard to it then as I do now.

11. Gold Digger (2005)

Kanye in his prime

12. Bring Me to Life (2003)

The song that brings the inner emo kid in you back to life

13. Bye Bye Bye (2000)

Because you have to end the playlist in the beginning of the century. This song is still iconic to this day.


Now go out and make yourself that perfect throwback playlist!

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way.
