00s Cuntdaown 50-41!

Oh My God, were moving into the top half of my awesome countdown which means that from here on out everything get second guessed even by myself. Does it mean my reasoning has to be any better? nah


50 Portions for Foxes by Rilo Kiley
This Should be a 90s song but fortunate for us it's a 00s song that may contain some of the most horribly selfish lyrics ever. Actually this band should be a 90s band complete with a child star turned singer in her adult life which seems ironic but really isn't just like the 90s



49 Gold Lion by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
This is what those lazy Williamsburg hipster kids are up to when their not drinking all your Pabst's Blue Ribbon or smoking outside cafes. Gold Lion is a very cool song that made Karen O into Siouxi Sioux for a bit.

48 Lazy Eye by Silversun Pickups
If the Smashing Pumpkins . . . err Billy Corgan ot over himself this would have been their song but reality is and the Silversun Pickups picked up where the Pumpkins left off after Siamese Dream.

47 Filthy/Gorgeous by Scissor Sisters
I am allowed to like modern disco and you are not allowed to argue

46 Big Brat by Phantom Planet
This is the only good song the band ever recorded and they did wonders with the brass and the bounce.



45 By The Way by Red Hot Chili Peppers
An entry by one of the biggest bands of the last 20 years the Chili Peppers have definitely done better music but not in this decade.

44 Vertigo by U2
Screw you, I like this song! I like it more than anything off "All You Can't Leave Behind" or anything they've done since then. Even if Bono can't count he does it awesome style

43 Rise by The Cult
Back from the 80s with a vengeance, Rise is a rocker that pays homage to their earlier work but builds on it with loud guitar and bad ass vocals and tambourine.

42 Fit But You Know It by The Streets
Here's the most comedic song in the top 50 and it all rhymes.




41 Fining Out True Love Is Blind by Louis XIV
I have a friend who looks like all these guys smashed into one. This a good little 70s sounding ditty about a they guy who wants to do every girl in the building. It sounds a bit T-Rex like and that's the charm of it as well as the boyishness that humors.
