The Billboard Hot 100 is a chart that ranks the best-performing songs in the United States, published by Billboard magazine. In the 2000s, each chart's "week ending" date was the Saturday of the following two weeks. The data were compiled by Nielsen SoundScan based collectively on each single's weekly physical ( CD, vinyl and cassette) and ...
- Damian Marley, ‘Welcome to Jamrock’ The biggest hit by Bob Marley's youngest son concerns the distance between Jamaica's legend and legacy (echoed by the song's scratchy Eighties-era groove) and its violent reality.
- Gorillaz, ‘Feel Good Inc.’ Somehow the Gorillaz needed a cartoon band to smuggle this seamless merger of Damon Albarn's melancholy Britpop and De La Soul's head-bobbing hip-hop into the mainstream.
- Amy Winehouse, ‘Back to Black’ The melodrama was vintage Sixties girl-group-style, with gorgeous Spectorian wall of sound production by Mark Ronson. The sensibility was a bit more up-to-date.
- Fleet Foxes, ‘White Winter Hymnal’ A single brief verse (repeated three times) about a snowy epiphany, some exquisite close harmonies, wordless falsetto doubled by understated surf guitar.
- Destiny’s Child, “Say My Name” (No. 1, Hot 100) What did late-‘90s/early-‘00s R&B artists do when they were heartbroken? Most ran to their nearest piano to pen a gutwrenching ballad.

This super-powered pop smash was the first single from *NSYNC’s landmark sophomore album No Strings Attached, on which the blockbuster boy band very publicly cut ties with their unscrupulous creator, late music and blimp impresario Lou Pearlman, to finally get their fair share of the pop pie.
- Britney Spears, “Oops!… I Did It Again” (No. 9, Hot 100) How can you avoid a sophomore slump? Easy: Just reassemble the team who worked on your debut smash, squeeze on a red latex catsuit and shoot a video that’s truly out of this world.
- Eminem feat. Dido, “Stan” (No. 51, Hot 100) Eminem has (correctly) been lambasted for his fealty to the actually f–ked-up f-word, but credit where credit’s due — at the turn of the century, no major rapper was going out of their way to convey matter-of-fact empathy for a jilted, pathological fan seeking a same-sex romantic connection.
