Recently, I was going through my Spotify account and I came across a playlist that specifically had every old middle school song that is possible, on there. At this point, I started to listen to this playlist and it actually inspired me to write this article today. 2007 was a great year and if you were in middle school during this time then you know how cringy our middle school days were, and how pumped we would get if we heard the songs listed below.
1. Yeah!-Usher
As soon as you hear, " Peace up, A-Town down" this song would have you running to the dance floor during your middle school years.
2. Fergalicious- Fergie
Let's just say this song would put me and my friends in another mood. We would get so excited if one of us could rap the entire song without stopping. Trust me it was an acomplishment back then.
3. Crank That- Soulja Boy
Soulja Boy was another classic that would make my friends and I want to fly all over the place screaming "yoooo."
4. With You- Chris Brown
Even though my friends and I were single we would sing this song as if we had a guy. Maybe we were just wishing Chris Brown was talking about us?
5. Shake It- Metro Station
Be prepared to cringe some more. I actually had this song set to my pink razor. Yes, that's right, this song was on repeat whenever I got a phone call!
6. Pon De Replay- Rhianna
Honestly, we loved this song but we always mumbled the words. I don't even think I know exactly what she says after "Pon De Replay."
7. Apologize- One Republic/Timberland
This song was on repeat whenever your middle school crush does something awful, like not pass you a note in the hallway. Ugh, now you were stuck in your feelings singing this song.
8. Lip Gloss- Lil Mama
So my lip gloss was always poppin' in middle school. My friends and I would have our Smacker lip gloss in our back pocket always ready to pull out and reapply more.
9. One, Two Step- Ciara
If you didn't do the "one, two step", what were you doing in middle school?
10. Hollaback Girl- Gwen Stefani
Let's face it this song still helps me spell "B-a-n-a-n-a-s."
The songs I have listed were just a small list that would've been on my top 10 playlist. Honestly, if I were to listen to these songs now I think I would still be ready to sing and dance along. I know I have rehashed some cringy moments for a lot of us, but hey 2007 was the year of our all-time favorites.
