What are your 5 FAVORITE songs this decade (since 2000)?

[powerhour24]

There's "Kite" and then there's everything else.

 

[powerhour24]

Although "Rebellion (Lies)" is for me the only other listenable Arcade Fire track, I much prefer "Wake Up"

 

[powerhour24]

OK, legitimate:

- U2 - "Kite"
- Pearl Jam - "Love Boat Captain"
- Chris Cornell - "Ghost"
- R.E.M. - "Bad Day"
- Pearl Jam - "Inside Job"

 

[powerhour24]

Favorite Radiohead song this decade: "Idioteque"

 

[Rafiennes]

Maybe we can make a mix CD of one song from everyone's list to get a taste of what we all like

Or maybe it's a stupid idea and I need to go back to work...although I'd much rather stay here with you all...
