Unlucky #11 - 2000s Edition

[Lost In Musical Reverie]

After tackling the 2010s on a previous poll (pulsemusic.proboards.com/thread/206219/unlucky-11-2010s-edition), it's only fair for me to cover the previous decade.

Vote for your favorite song that barely missed the top 10 elite of its given year. Honestly, while the 2010s list was much more consistent quality-wise, the highs here are bonafide classics, so it seems like determining the best will be tough.

Feel free to make rankings or any additional comments about the longevity of the songs here. For instance, "Sexy Can I" finished higher than "Viva La Vida" (#13), "I Kissed A Girl" (#14), and "Disturbia" (#16), and yet I don't think it's received any recurrent play since.

Also, if you want me to do polls for the 60s-90s as well, do tell. 🙂

Avril, but honorable mentions to Blu, Mary, and Taylor. "Get Low" is also still that bop in the clubs. Don't use the rest.

Mary J, easily!! I also love "Get Low" and "Hit Em Up Style".Tipsy was a bop too. Don't care about the rest on the list.
