IS FINALLY HERE!


From "Oops!... I Did It Again" to "Bad Romance", the 2000s shaped my relationship with pop and laid the foundation for my taste in music. And that's why I'm so excited to bring you this edition of Ultimate Song Justice. We're going right back to the beginnings of this pink hellscape to collate the 2021 posters' absolute favourites of that period and reveal them in ascending order of points received.
Less competition, more nostalgia fest!



Speaking of nostalgia, here are the previous countdowns for complete experience:

Ultimate Popstar 2011
Ultimate Popstars 2019
Ultimate Popjustice (songs)
Ultimate AlbumJustice
Ultimate Song Justice: 2010s
Ultimate Album Justice: 2010s

Submit your 20 favourite songs of the 2000s to me in a PM.
The #1 song gets 20 points and your #20 song gets 1 point.
Solo artists are considered separate from their groups.
2 is the limit of songs per artist. We need this to stop me from simply submitting my Sugababes/Girls Aloud top 10s.
Credited feature rule: "1,2 Step" and "Lose Control" on your ballot=2 songs counted for both Ciara and Missy.
Eligible release dates: January 1st, 2000-December 31st, 2009 (this will be checked).
Exceptions: 1999 album tracks first released on single in the 2000s, 1999 singles that peaked in the 2000s, - bring some receipts if you want to include those, please.
Retro clause: 2000s songs released on artists' retrospectives after December 31st, 2009 are allowed. That doen't mean re-recordings are fine, so keep your fearless vaults closed.
Only officially released music will be accepted - no Mutya version of "My Love Is Pink"'s or whatever.
Commentary Allowed!
And most importantly: do the Ultimate 2000s Album Justice as well - hosted by @SophiaSophia.


You have until the end of 31st January in your timezone to enter your ballot.

Exceptions: 1999 album tracks first released on single in the 2000s, 1999 singles that peaked in the 2000s, - bring some receipts if you want to include those, please.
I take it 2000 album tracks first released as singles in 1999 are out?

me and @pop3blow2 realizing we can't send one of the literal greatest songs of all time:

Edit: Wait it was 1999 in the US and Norway but 2000 in the UK - would it be eligible after all?

Technically... well, if some territories couldn't legally buy it until 2000, then it would be unfair to exclude it. It's one of those songs that would be eligible for both 1990s and 2000s. Dang it, 2010s had it so much easier without all the staggered release strategies!

What's the rule about songs that appeared on an album in 2008 and 2009 but were released as a single in 2010? Also, does it matter if the 2010 mix is different from the album version and I want to include the album version in my list?
