doesn't feature on this list, it will be VERY surprising. At the least, "Hung Up" should appear.

Thanks, HRS.

Might be more practical to keep it all in one post. I'll keep editing this one.

1. Jay-Z, "99 Problems"

post 21-40, which ucrrently is on the site.

Her Madgesty has three tracks within the 21-40 range.

25. "Music"
33. "Don't Tell Me"
36. "Hung Up"

That should be it- none of her other 2000s releases should be cracking the top 20. We should be seeing "Can't Get You Out of My Head," "Toxic," etc.

overrated? It's not like it's on every list. It's a good track.

When "Nothing Fails" first was out, I loved it. I still like it, but not as much- it really is a slowed-down sister of "Don't Tell Me," sonically. "Jump," I really like.

Do we have guesses for the top 20 (not in any particular order)?

I guess I don't really like the Music era much- it felt like a watered down retread of Ray of Light to me. There are a few great songs on there ("Impressive Instant", "Paradise (Not for Me)") and a few other decent songs, but I flat out dislike "Don't Tell Me".

On the flipside, I actually quite love most of American Life.

As for the top 20, I'd say the following look likely to appear:

Yeah Yeah Yeahs- "Maps"
Franz Ferdinand- "Take Me Out"
M.I.A.- "Paper Planes"
Rihanna- "Umbrella"
Kylie Minogue- "Can't Get You Out of My Head"
Britney Spears- "Toxic"
Missy Elliott- "Get Ur Freak On"

"Chewing Gum" was a surprise for me, so I'm hoping "Heartbeat" cracks the top 20.

moved things to a more electro-folk arena, though. American Life, to me, is the larger retread- the first time she had just one production collaborator on an album (since Like a Virgin). And while it was even more folky in spots than Music, there wasn't much of a creative difference.

I can see Annie's "Heartbeat" ranking in the top 20.

I would expect to see "Since U Been Gone' in the top 20, as well. Wonder if Lady Gaga will have something- Slant didn't include any of her videos in its 50 Best Videos of the 2000s.

Guys i'm so sorry i stopped posting the rest of the list! I'm so busy at school this week! This list is cool so far. I hope the top 20 is interesting! Tomorrow we'll know and hopefully they will finally release their top 100 albums list! It's the only one these days that has a chance to include a Fiona Apple album or Ys inside the top 20! And maybe Beach House's Devotion inside the top 100! Loving their new album by the way, i'm also loving There Is Love in You, Romance Is Boring, Broken Bells self titled and Odd Blood. Liking, so far, Hidden, Surfer Blood's Astro Coast & that new Corinne Bailey Rae (it's good). Charlotte Gainsbourg's & Vampire Weekend's sophomore albums were also great record i listened this month. Yeah, many great records released and to be released this year. 2010 sounds like good shit! School can wait =]

I hate some of their mainstream pop/hip-hop inclusions. Who really thinks "Get Low" is better than "Since I Left You" or "Digital Love"?

How could I have forgotten the two "Crazy" songs- 'Crazy" and "Crazy in Love," when mentioning some of the obvious ones?

That "99 Problems" is killin' it.

I'm a little bummed that "Heartbeat" didn't make the top 20, but overall, I like this list a lot.
