... but giving it a go: Vida La Vida - Coldplay Just Like A Pill - Pink Mad World - Gary Jules Sex On Fire - Kings Of Leon Special mention to: Can't Get U Out Of My Head - Kylie Poker Face - Gaga EDIT - Crazy - Gnarls Barkley (poster above reminded me!) ... for when I'm feeling in a poppy mood, they're are very mainstream but they will be classics... (Hasn't this decade been dire for number ones? )

Every decade you can be sure someone says "this is the decade music died". I can remember people lamenting the state of '90s music, and I know people will have done it decades previously too. It's all about nostalgia and when you were born.
Admittedly, the singles charts is less important than it used to be but that's only because people have easy access to such a diversity of music that fewer people simply follow existing trends. I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor - Arctic Monkeys Stereophonics - Dakota Bring Me to Life - Evanescence Shapeshifters - Lola's Theme Destiny's Child - Independent Women Crazy - Gnarls Barkley Just Dance - Lady GaGa |

That doesn't mean there hasn't been good music created, but I would personally suggest what you're getting topping the charts isn't of the standard as previous decades. Just a personal view though

I just went through this list and it is absolutely shocking
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...2000s_%28UK%29 There is no best number 1 of the 2000's imo, just the least worst, what a joke. Don't get me wrong there are a few songs of this decade I have thought were amazing but they were not number 1. That list pretty much sums up the noughties. |

In a very very dire decade,
Crazy by Gnarls Barkley stands out for me as one of the very few songs I even liked, let alone no.1s. And that is coming from a Queen fan of 26 years - who would automatically have said We Will Rock You by Queen + 5ive should be the best, but even I know that is bull. |

Not many to choose from I'm afraid usually all of the good songs are kept from the top ten by the shite anyway! If I had to choose it would probably be either.
Coldplay - Viva La Vida Razorlight - America La Roux - Bulletproof Other than that I can't think of any more off the top of my head! |
