(From left to right, from top row to bottom row: Arcade Fire, Bjork, Interpol, Kanye West; Radiohead, The Strokes, Gorillaz, LCD Soundsystem; Queens of the Stone Age, Tool, OutKast, Portishead; The Avalanches, Deftones, Sigur Rós, Animal Collective)
in Summer 2020, CrapGuy compiled Rateyourmusic.com's Decade-End 100 from the 2010s and hosted a rankdown for it. After receiving 20 participants, it seemed demand was big for games of this theme. But when I saw the talk of how more RYM rankdowns were going to proceed, I felt like stepping in to slow down the process and make sure whichever next decade was hosted as smoothly as possible. Because, let's be honest, there were some clear improvements that could be made over the first go-round--and who better to implement those fixes than someone who has been using RYM for nearly 11 years? But remember: the whole userbase aggregated this list. So if you have issues with what's on here, there isn't really one person you can complain to (let alone me).
Acquaint yourself with these songs thoroughly, then PM me your ranking of all of them from favorite (#1) to least favorite (#100). Leave the artist names in or not, either way is fine, but please make sure your artist names/titles are typed the same way they are in this opening post. Whether you number your list or not is up to you. After sending your list, you may make changes to your ranks as long as you do so before the deadline. Results are determined by adding up each person's ranks for each song; the song with the least points wins.

A few notes on the song selection:
- The RYM charts update weekly. However, this is the final list and no changes in the songs during the submissions process will be reflected in this rankdown. So if something you really like ends up in the top 100 after I posted the thread, unfortunately you're just going to have to deal with it not being here.
- These are the 2000s singles that are on the overall chart. If you run a search specifically for Top Singles of the 2000s, it brings up 8 more singles that aren't on the all-time chart for some reason. If RYM is going to stick with this stupid esoteric-overall split I might as well stay faithful to it + there's more variety in the 8 songs brought in.
- I also removed "Paper Bag" by Fiona Apple and "Ný batterí" by Sigur Rós since they're from 90s albums.
The real #100 after taking into account the prior two rules is "It's Not Up to You" by Björk. I made an executive decision to swap in "None Shall Pass" since I feel it would be more interesting to rank RYM's highest-rated song of Aesop Rock's whole career rather than RYM's 5th-highest-rated song on one album (Vespertine) + they have the same average (3.95) with NSP having more ratings and I don't really care about what dumb algorithm magic RYM is using to put INUTY 11 spots higherThis ended up not mattering anyway because "It's Not Up To You" officially fell out of the top 100 in the next update
