51ST:

 

USHER FT LIL JON, LUDACRIS- YEAH!

 

#1

 

2004

 

 

 

This was massive back in 2004. The best song that Usher did and won The Usher Rate I did back in 2011. Still what a tune this is.

50TH:

 

EMINEM- THE REAL SLIM SHADY

 

#1

 

 

2000

 

 

 

15 years on and there is still only "One Slim Shady'. His first UK #1. Yes a bit of controversy but don't listen if you're easily offended.

 

49TH:

 

TAKE THAT- RULE THE WORLD

 

#2

 

2007

 

 

 

Another great song from 2007 which was kept off the #1 spot by that pesky 'Bleeding Love'. One of Take That's best songs since they reunited back in 2007. This more memorable than the film Stardust and one of the best movie songs for a long time.

48TH:

 

DANIEL BEDINGFIELD- GOTTA GET THRU THIS

 

#1

 

2001

 

47TH:

 

JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE FT T.I- MY LOVE

 

#2

 

 

2006

 

 

 

So many great memories. Fantastic all around this.

 

46TH:

 

DELTA GOODREM- LOST WITHOUT YOU

 

#4

 

2003

 

 

 

 

Quite an emotional ballad this from Delta Goodrem. The best song she did in my opinion.

 

45TH:

 

EMINEM- WITHOUT ME

 

#1

 

 

2002

 

 

 

Guess who's back?. Slim Shady. Yes this was controversial but we all need a bit of controversy don't we?

 

44TH:

 

ERIC PRYDZ- CALL ON ME

 

#1

 

 

2004

 

 

 

One of the sexiest music videos of the 00s this was Eric Prydz. An iconic music video and a dance classic.

43RD:

 

KELLY ROWLAND- WORK (FREEMASONS REMIX)

 

#4

 

 

2008

 

 

 

Fantastic club hit and a great remix from Freemasons. This definitely again was the jam from that year and looking very nice there, Ms Rowland.

42ND:

 

KASABIAN- CLUB FOOT

 

#19

 

2004/2005

 

 

That distorted bass riff is epic.

 

41ST:

 

JAY-Z FT RIHANNA & KANYE WEST- RUN THIS TOWN

 

#1

 

2009

 

 

Fantastic urban collaboration from two heavyweights of rap and the Barbados R&B queen Rihanna. This is such a good song indeed.

'The Real Slim Shady' and 'Rule The World' were the first songs I ever heard from Eminem and Take That respectively, both very good.

 

'Run This Town' is quite the anthem but even so doesn't hold a candle to 'Empire State Of Mind'!

The Real Slim Shady and Rule The World definitely very good.

 

Sorry Riser put 'Run This Town' definitely wins over 'Empire State Of Mind' in my opinion.

 

 

40TH:

 

GORILLAZ- CLINT EASTWOOD

 

#4

 

2001

 

 

This song that introduced us to Gorillaz. This was pretty good indeed all thanks to Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewitt.

39TH:

 

RONAN KEATING- LIFE IS A ROLLERCOASTER

 

#1

 

2000

 

 

Fantastic upbeat tune this was from Ronan Keating. Yes this may be a surprising choice and possibly cheesy but this is my guilty pleasure.

38TH:

 

NELLY FT KELLY ROWLAND- DILEMMA

 

#1

 

2002

 

 

Nelly and Kelly. Nelly's best song that he definitely did. A very memorable R&B collaboration this. People I remember got confused what 'boo' was and meant and why Nelly wore that plaster on his face. Fantastic R&B love song this.

37TH:

 

MUSE- UPRISING

 

#9

 

2009

 

 

 

 

Yes the start of this does remind me of Doctor Who a bit. This song definitely struck a chord for me.

36TH:

 

GORILLAZ FT SHAUN RYDER- DARE

 

#1

 

2005

 

 

 

This was Gorillaz's only UK #1. The music video featuring vocals from Happy Monday's Shaun Ryder as the giant head. The song of the summer from 2005 for me.

 

35TH:

 

THE KILLERS- MR BRIGHTSIDE

 

#10

 

2004

 

 

This is an awesome memerable song from The Killers. What a tune this is still from them.

34TH:

 

TIMBALAND PRESENTS ONEREPUBLIC- APOLOGIZE

 

#3

 

2007

 

 

 

Fantastic production there from Timbaland and great vocals from Ryan Tedder which introduced us to OneRepublic. Another song which was denied a #1 spot by that pesky 'Bleeding Love'.
