Top 20 Songs of the Decade

These are what I believe to be the top 20 songs of the decade according to popularity, radio time, and chart success. I tried to have absolutely no bias in ranking these songs (I don’t even like some of them). Let me know what you think, give suggestions, make criticisms, tell me what I missed. But mostly, enjoy some of the best music of an era when punk children’s Bibles were American Idiot and artists like Jay Z and 50 Cent gave “swag” to even the whittest of Catholic boys.
