    Tbh I'm not gonna be able to check every single song that's nominated, but I trust y'all to enter them in good faith anyways.

    If it comes up in the tourney and becomes an issue I'll just remove the questionable song (after doing my own checks first of course)

    I suppose you could argue that any single ever released charted somewhere even if it's at #5,000. I just checked Wikipedia for my list and if there was no number listed beside it then I didn't include it. But others might have a different method, it did help me trim the list down a bit anyway!

    Yeah I did the same. Some of mine were only released as singles in the Nordics and Germany, Belgium, etc.

    Guys, someone's got to nominate the obvious ones! Don't think I've got room on my list either :p

    I think a lot of mine are going to be obvious ones this time as I definitely dropped off buying albums from the mid 2000s onwards.....

    My prediction to win is Teenage Dirtbag by Wheatus.*


    *This may be reverse psychology in the hopes that people won't vote for it; as it is now, literally, a predictable winner.

    Aw f***, how could I forget Ms Jackson! Sorry, Ms Jackson...

    Hope someone else nominated it or Necro throws it in the mix as a wildcard.

    Absolutely, 10 is the max. You can submit just the 1 if you like :)

    Found it hard to distinguish the first 10 years of the century from the last 10!
    Old age!

    There was a lot better music than I remembered at first

    I had a similar issue with the Best of 90s competition. A lot of what I thought were released in the 90s were released in 00s.

    Actually SHOULD be the winner! Came out in 2000 and is very much a quintessential noughties song. Can't see it winning in an Irish poll though.

    Could never stand Sorry Ms. Jackson. Always liked Outkast, but could never take that song.

    Bollocks, bollocks, bollocks.

    I can't believe I left out my favourite song of the 00s.
