Top 10 Songs of the 00s
Umbrella - Rihanna ft. Jay-Z
Best song about an umbrella in 41 years (Bus Stop, Hollies, 1966).
Top 10 Songs of the 00s
Missed The Boat - Modest Mouse
I love Modest Mouse. Since they totally sold out at least.
Top 10 Songs of the 00s

Top 10 Songs of the 00s
Such Great Heights - Iron & Wine
Despite her protests, Jessie putting both this, and the original Postal Service version, in her top 10 is cheating…
And unnecessary given the obvious superiority of the Iron & Wine version. It’s rare, but sometimes cover versions do improve on originals.

The Sweet Escape - Gwen Stefani featuring Akon
