Brian didn’t even try. Can’t blame him though. He’s one of my favorites! I love Travis too!!! “I am fighting my natural instincts over here!” Same, Travis.
30 year old millennial here, you rarely hear these songs on the radio anymore. All the genres were so good…rock, pop, rap, r&b, and even country during that time were creating great music with some popular cross genre songs. I may sound like a boomer but miss it so much. Need to educate myself on some newer stuff. Any recommendations?
I feel you! There used to be a variety of genres on mainstream not just basic dance/pop (not that there's anything wrong with that but switch it up a little, ya know?). The only way I can keep up with music today is through tiktok 😂
A fun fact is that while Thong Song is known as a 2000 song, it has the distinction of being the last song released in the 90s. It came out on New Year's Eve 1999.
The Real Slim Shady was such a huge hit here in the Netherlands in 2000 its insane. Every radiostation played that song several times per hour. Still never got sick of it.
"This is my last resort" just exited my lips without even waving at a conscious thought the moment Last Resort started playing. I lost a couple, but that was *immediate*.
Fun fact....the song Who Let The Dogs Out by Baha Men is actually a cover. The song was originally done by a Trinidadian soca artist by the name of Anslem Douglas
I remember to be in school and waiting for Friday and watching MTV top 20. Aerosmith, Britney, Green Day, Coldplay, The Stokes, Dido, Blink 182, System of a Down, Oasis, U2… omg such beautiful glory days.
Damn i tried, but as someone who was born at 1991, mission impossible... Good old days when MTV had only bangers and you WANTED to watch it! All the memories....
Man, we used to yell "SCHOOL SUCKS" everytime Small Things came on in the bus drive to or from school. Now as an adult, I can officially yell "WORK SUCKS". xD
Just a quick bit of information about Coldplay - Yellow music video. Only the singer, martin , was there in the music video was because Champion, the drummer's mother, funeral was on the same day. So it was decided that Martin would be the only one to film so the rest can attend. The music video was supposed to be on asunny day but on the day actually turned rainy with harsh winds.
Man, music videos used to be so fun to look at back then... Everything was so good in the early 2000's and seeing them jamming made it feel like I went back in 2000 again for a brief moment 😌
dude the years 1999-2000 were loaded with a ton of great pop, rock, and rap music that everyone could listen to. We dont have too many cross over songs now days, but these were the kind that didnt matter the genre, everyone was singing them.
DMX was incredible with the songs, may he rest in peace. Shaggy also did Mr Boombastic, I bet that one would have gotten them all. Yellow is a great song and I loved the acoustic version done by a Lisa Marie Johnson who use to be on your channel.
The thing about the songs in 2000, fans had a variety of genres to choose from. Plus most of them shared the same platform either V-channel or MTV (When MTV was still a legit music channel) and so on. Nowadays almost the majority of music sounds the same that has more of an electro vibe to it.
Fun fact, The Baha Men were not the original singers of Who Let The Dogs Out. They bought the song from Anslem Douglas, a Soca artiste from my beautiful twin island Republic, Trinidad and Tobago
I worked Security at a Six Flags park during the summer when The Thong Song came out. Sisqo came into to park to sing it live at our small in-park studio. When he was done, we had to move him from Point A to B. And those damn fans were rabid to touch him. Bunch of crazies.
“This is like every guys theme song” while listening to shaggy Me belting this song out as a 4 year old because my parents gave me a shaggy album. I still have it to this day aswell.
Thank you for this episode. I have said for the last 20 years that the best music that ever came out was from 1999-2002. I graduated in 2002 and all of these bring back memories. Music that came out after is good, but just doesn’t have the same feelings that these do.
I can usually win at these types of videos but this is the first one that I sang and danced through the whole thing. There's only one song here that I had never heard before, all the rest were absolute bangers.
