We now reach the decade a lot of people on this site were born in. We're just far enough removed from that decade for these songs to be officially retro, but close enough that these songs are still in our popular consciousness. Will be interested to see how this poll plays out. Guessing this will come down to Umbrella and Lose Yourself Most streamed 60s
Most streamed 70s
Most streamed 80s
Most streamed 90s |

My ranking is
1. Numb
2. Hips Don't Lie
3. Chop Suey
4. Back to Black
5. Umbrella
6. In the End
7. Halo
8. Lose Yourself
9. Bad Romance
10. Mockingbird
Why more people are seeking out Mockingbird than any other song from 2004 is something I don't know or understand. #2 and #3 were Yeah and Boulevard of Broken Dreams, and I would have happily chosen either as the song to represent that year.

Curious. Where do you get this info? Is it easily accessible somewhere?

Curious. Where do you get this info? Is it easily accessible somewhere? So, I compiled the numbers myself. The streams from Spotify and YouTube are easily obtained. As for streams from sources like Apple Music and Amazon, I used the estimates from Chartmasters.org. The way they estimate the streams from those platforms is by multiplying the Spotify streams by a ratio determined by a) Spotify's market share of the artist's audience b) how the genre performs on those other platforms. It's not perfect, but it's the best possible way to factor in numbers that aren't publicly available. It also doesn't change much in the final result beyond balancing the audio streams with the video streams. But as far as whether the numbers I used are publicly accessible, the answer is yes--if you're willing to put in some effort. Which I have for everyone else to enjoy. |

Pleasantly surprised "Back To Black" has so many streams that it's in the top 10 of the 2000s. That's interesting to me. Also surprised to see "Mockingbird" here as I didn't think it was particularly remembered among Eminem's bigger hits. Good mix of songs though.

Also surprised to see "Mockingbird" here as I didn't think it was particularly remembered among Eminem's bigger hits. Good mix of songs though. So, I don't want you to misread what this list means. Back in Black isn't in the top 10 songs of the decade. It's barely in the top 50, and by far the smallest song on this list. It's just the biggest of 2006. Here's where they all rank on the decade list: 1-Numb 2-Lose Yourself 4-In the End 8-Halo 13-Bad Romance 14-Hips Don't Lie 17-Chop Suey 19-Umbrella 28-Mockingbird 47-Back to Black |

Umbrella. But I love all those songs except for 'Lose Yourself' and the System of a Down song I have never heard of.

Back in Black genuinely doesn’t belong with this group. That being said, it tops all of them.
