Verdy's aural memory and musical knowledge is encyclopedic, let alone, her musical appreciation is off the charts for so many chart toppers. (Bow). Like the French said: Chapeau!
Verdy I saw someone do the second best songs of each month in the 80's and I think this list was more impressive than the number 1's of the 80's and you would recognize a lot of them
Your song reactions are very FUN, it makes me glad that someone young knows 80's music and likes it. (Well this one is 00's.) I wish you all the best! John in Sweden.
"Yeah" by Usher etc. was such a big hit when I was in middle school. Our bus driver would play the top hits on the radio and all the kids would go crazy for this song and "Get Low" by Lil Jon.
Angel ( of the morning ) first hit recording: Merrilee Rush 1968, Juice Newton covered it in the 80's. Lady Marmalade original was Patti Labelle 1975. Mr. Lonely Bobby Vinton 1962.
On a mainstream level, I'd say the 80s were better. I was impressed with the quality of the songs that hit the charts that decade. The 90s were an amazing time for alternative rock/electronic music, but those power ballads are so annoying... Not to mention the eurodance songs that aged like milk and the boy/girlband frenzy. Terrible terrible.
Damn, it's depressing how old this makes me feel. I was already a young adult by this point. Well, not at the turn of the 00's. I was 14 in the year 2000, but by 2008 I was 22 and moved out on my own. The 00s also marks the point popular music made a much more steep decline. It only got worse from there.
It's interesting to hear someone of your age range say that about music of the 00's taking a steep decline -- and right at your teenage peak (which it usually when everyone's personal peak for following and loving music happens the most -- right around our high school years. Because I think that too, about the 00's nosediving and a lot of boring, uninspiring blahhh since then, but I keep thinking that's just my bias getting in the way, because I was 30 in 2000 --- a child of the 70s, a teenager of the 80s, which was my high school peak, and right in the thick of what a lot of people are saying are those best years for rock music. So I think I'm just imagining it with my own bias, when I think most of what has followed stinks as a general way of looking at it, but yeah, I think there's something to it and it's true, the decline in talent and creativity just plummeted. I'm starting to believe good music happens in cycles with peaks and valleys of decades or more, and I think most people will agree the creative and originality started it's climb in the 50s, turning ever steeper and upward in the 60's, was on fire in the 70's/80s and started then somewhere in the early 90s started it's turn down the other side, going back down, and reached that low, or valley, in the 2000's and since... I'm sure if you go back to the classics, 100s of years ago, they had their peaks of brilliance too, then a lot of dull in between. I think artists inspire each other in their industry. Great ones inspire greatness in others. Mediocre ones inspire mediocrity in the others. ...Maybe? But if there's a next golden age for music to come in some group of decades ahead, where it climbs again, it will be interesting to see what that will be like. Maybe a type of music as strange to us as Rock was to those whose prime years were in the 1920s, 30's, 40s maybe? Crazy to think about. but then what do I know.
I was born in 92, so I'm old enough to remember seeing all of these music videos when they came out. So many feel like yesterday and now I feel 60 instead of 30 knowing some of them came out over 20 years ago lmao
Started watching when you where at a couple thousand subs good to see you've grown. Good to see you smiling. Just so you know I was born in September of 62. You take care. I'll check on you from time to time just to keep you honest. Take care now. I forgot there are a few good tunes in there but just like candy you have to throw out the rappers.
My children (born '85 and '89) were now taking over my music, even though I had my CDs in the car! Some of my best Dad tracks there! Still a few 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s leftover artists making music though, or at least inspired by them. Can't help but think that most of them wanted to dance rather than sing. Verdy, a bit like me being born in the 50s and getting Rock 'n Roll played on the radio...know what you mean. I do think, though that the music you listen to in your teens and early twenties will live with you forever.
The 2000's is the last decade, when you still had some songs that are actually music, but it was going downhill fast. Especially in 2007 it took a sharp turn towards becoming complete and utter garbage. After 2010, "music" was 99.9% dead, singers became autotunists and everything was and still is computer generated crap.
I know some of these from hearing them coming from my kids rooms. There are a small few that I listened to that played on the radio station I listened to regularly. Wow, 😵💫 only 3 or 4 that I listened to regularly out if 120! 😂
That's about when the music industry started to die ('cause MP3s) and interest in video games was on a steep rise. Through out that decade, pop music sounded very homogenous. Only a hand full producers and studio musicians worked on most of these songs, hence the homogenous sound. Alternative music was much more interesting and dynamic in that era.
I know I am an old guy but the difference in the songs from the 60's, 70's, 80's and this stuff is HUGE! Listening to the older music I haven't missed much not listening to this stuff the past 20+ years. I guess to each his own.
The best songs of the 2000s never hit the charts. But those unnoticed bands were the lineup for the first 10 years of Coachella. The Dandy Warhols, Belle and Sebastian, Arcade Fire, Wilco, Blonde Redhead, Bjork, Radiohead, The Mars Volta, Bright Eyes, Spoon, The New Pornographers, Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs, Interpol, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Tegan and Sara, Death Cab for Cutie, Modest Mouse, Arctic Monkeys, Vampire Weekend, Air, Animal Collective, Yo La Tengo, TV on the Radio, Sunny Day Real Estate, Sigur Ros, The Shins, Of Montreal, Mew, M83, MGMT, Ladytron, Sujjan Stevens, Beck, Grizzly Bear, Bloc Party, Built to Spill, etc
Absolutely do the next decade if you have the time! These are fun and a nice blast of nostalgia. Also, I was waiting for that Lady Gaga hit explosion at the end of the decade....(Katie Perry too)
Sin duda alguna la mejor música es de los 80 y 90, soy nacido en el 82 y también he disfrutado de la música del 2000 pero hay una diferencia abismal, es una opinión, saludos verdy🖐️🇦🇷
Oh my God Verdy! This decade defines my youth from Teenage to 25 entering the millenium. Those were great times! Please react separately to Pet Shop Boys The Offspring Crash Test Dummies Soul Assylum Oasis and The Prodigy which is absolute madness 😂!
Ha. I only knew three tracks in the whole of that, even though I recognized many of the artists' names. In the 90s one I was surprised at how many of the tracks I actually did know. I just turned 66, btw.
My charts knowledge drops away pretty abruptly in 2003. After that, I only know the occassional song and mostly I have only heard them way later. That is because my children were born around that time.
Nah, not really, many are pretty bad, particularly considering the 'top' songs probably started to represent more of the range of what people overall listened to(as the variety started reducing a lot)
hi again so i bought speakerboxx, purely on hey ya, ms jackson and i love the way you movie i can't get this song outta my head, still astounds me to this day, and continues to influence me to this day that white outfit is IMPOSSIBLE ... IMpossible i tells ya! hybrid theory is still one of my fav cds, when one step closer got released it blew me away shakira shikiiiiira ... PIQUE YOU IDIOT!!! bought the cd single too, what a gal in da club is STILL a great first single ahh amy lee, this song just goes to places in me that are way deep down, instant fan of evanescence from then on absolutely ADORE dido and white flag, that video is so sad with her and david boreanaz! only beaten to favourite by HUNTER toxic is another one close to being fav, and that title belongs to STRONGER lose my breath is such a "breath of fresh air" for them ... dancing off against themselves BANANAS gorillaz CLINT EASTWOOD was fascinating, bought the cd single and then their first two albums! i actually could sing both CE and this one word for word, they are so easy to sing along too get back to prison you! you're beautiful is gorgeous to listen too, blunt get's some stick though why you do this, lovely girl in the blue and white striped tshirt ... kanye at his most interesting IMO with this and stronger (a play on the anime movie AKIRA) ... not like crazy old man era WHATS HE DOING NOW??? heard check on it a lot later, sweet dreams is still my favourite though my mum died in april 2007 and i simply could NOT listen to umbrella, it reminded me ... only now NOW can i listen to it! i only heard the way i are (stupid title) in the non-stop pop fm radio station in GTAV! the start of PERRY! man did i make a mistake with gaga, thought that song was another fashionista flash in the pan ... then POKER FACE slapped me, same as PAPARAZZI ... i just remembered i said that in your 2000s onwards vid! that video for single ladies ... on a technical level is fascinating to find out about ... BBP is great song ... IGF is awful song ... and i didn't even recognise fergie in that beautiful video for meet me half way! oh man FIREFLIES, didn't get into that until a few years later, lovely song too still couldn't get alicia keyes
Shocked I knew about half of these. (“Knew” means I recognized the song, though I might not be able to name title and/or artist.) I’m guessing I could count on one hand the 2010s.
I guess Bring Me to Life was considered the only radio-worthy song from EV during the 2000s. The rest of it seemed to be dominated by pop. Not the type of stuff that a Led Zeppelin, Yes, and Pink Floyd guy from the 70s would be happy about.
If you ever start doing 2nd most popular songs of 80's and 70's please have both videos open to compare (1st and 2nd hits). Which was more memorable song.
Each of the other 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's video you reacted to had a bunch of hit songs that I had almost forgotten about and wanted to listen to again, but this video....hardly any. There were SO many badly written and overproduced pseudo-R&B and rap "songs" during this decade.
I mean, there were still a lot of great music being made at the time but something happened towards the end of the 90s and the music that was promoted after that point really narrowed down to just a handful of musical genres to the exclusion of everything else. Bands that would have been huge if they'd arrived on the music scene 5 to 10 years early just didn't break through.
Whelp, I'm glad RUclips disabled downvotes 'cause I'm sure this comment would crash and burn... There's very little 'feeling' in these songs. It's like they're all flash, no substance. I think it's in the producing, not the songs themselves. They could be good (or even great) songs but their presentations had all the humanity squeezed out of them. Of course, there were some bright spots here and there but the majority of them were... uh... [expletive]. But I'm an old fogey, what would I know about music made for teens when I was already pushing 40-50. I'm pretty sure my parents thought the same about the music of the '60s and '70s.
Yes, 2010s, please! Also note: on the cluttered screen of RUclips, that this was the 2000s video of yours was hidden because your title is so long. I almost didn't see it. For example, your previous title was, "Reaction to MOST POPULAR SONG EACH MONTH IN THE 90s." That shows-up entirely on a YoutTube page. But, "Reaction to MOST POPULAR SONGS EACH MONTH IN THE 2000s," just shows-up as, "Reaction to MOST POPULAR SONGS EACH MONTH".
I beat Verdy in the 70's and 80's but she killed me in the 90's and 00's since I really don't care for Rap or Hip Hop. I do love P!nk though. Physical media is dead I know, but I did buy 2 CD's - my last - 2 Canadian bands - July Talk and Metric. Would be fun Verdy if you reviewed some of their work.
Ooof, yeah, there’s a few gems in here but overall a very noticeable sharp drop in quality compared to the previous decades. Sorry if this comment upsets anyone but… it is what it is
😜Hola ,great reaction show i have relatives from Canda🇨🇦i from Puerto Rico🇺🇲🇵🇷 i want to now your opinion,between the 60's,70's,80's,90's and 200's so you the host🧐 is part of you work 🫡🎼🎩🎸🎶🎶🎶🤣🤣🤣☮️✌️
Oh my. Notice now the dominance of the American market and American artists. The age of studio production, the real rise of rap. Some great tracks here but overall it doesn't hold a candle to previous decades. Rather sad to reflect now as music becomes increasingly a commercial tool and less an artistic one.
I gave up on modern music in 2015. It's reached a point where people have become so conditioned into the normalized sound of Autotune that kids or aspiring singers actually try to imitate the robotic autotune sound when they are singing for fun. The late 90's early 2000's at least had songs with actual music, even when sampled or used with autotune, they were far more balanced and memorable than today's dross. They have also killed off the use of real instruments or at least the sounds they make. Music now doesn't put any actual emphasis on a memorable melody/harmony and just use heavy digital instrument layering the to match the autotune singer's voice. There is no real Intro or bassline you can hum and you'll find you're just humming the words and not the music. We did get songs like Bob the builder and Teletubbies in the late 90's early 00's period but they didn't dominate. Now if you try to hum a modern song, 9 times out of 10 they sound like robotic ballads and you'll find you're actually humming the singers dominant autotuned voice instead of the music. Try the hum test and see how many songs from the current top 20 you can hum without humming the lyrics, you'll very likely struggle. Then try doing the same from any top 20 (excluding ballads) from any period in the 80's or 90's, you'll start humming the bassline or keyboards before you even hear the first lyric.
I think most of these songs were written in a certain way. Lyrics by committee, music by a group of producers then handed off to the artist, who had almost no input, to perform. They cater to the lowest common denominator more and more these days and it is very surprising when a song written and performed by a single artist or band gets popular now.
lol this is so silly what you've written. Every decade has amazing music and downright bad music. Who are the "auto tune" singers that you are talking about from today? I'd be very interested to know who you are speaking about.
@@DoubleMonoLR No but a lot of those feelings stem from being off a certain age and the music no longer catering to you or your life during that time. It happens to everybody, it happened to your parents before you and it can happen to you. Whenever i hear people say blanket statements like "music today is bad" i just understand that it has just passed them and i keep it moving.
My only problem with these videos is the constant cuts almost give me nausea. Some good music here, not my favorite, but still some pretty good tunes. Thank you for the reaction, have a nice day.
Ayeee... Avril Lavigne and Nelly Furtado representing 🇨🇦 Love them, especially Nelly with Say It Right which is another song with Timbaland, been listening her since I'm Like A Bird and Turn Off The Light. Timbaland and his songs in the Step Up 2 OST as well with Justin Timberlake are another great moment in the 2000's. I know almost 98% or 99% of the artists here but some of these songs didn't reach my hears, maybe they were hits over there and some other countries. Thanks for sharing this my Legend 2002.❤
Im Just fucking amazed how familiar you are with music. You Go girl. On another Note, in comparison tonthr earlier decades you clearly start to See the Shift from individual musicians and artists to more Corporate pushed acts
if you think about it almost all the songs except for 3/4 are totally anonymous compared to the cult songs of the past years .. the evolution of music through the years and the current society we live in now that nothing remains and persists over time but it is essentially driven consumerism
I'm another old fart, and so much of that music in that decade is so forgettable and really awful, music that was was plastic with no originality and a lot of misogyny thrown onto borrowed tunes. The odd good song but not much. But you are young and maybe I liked a lot of rubbish back when. Keep doing reactions though, you're fun to tune into and great to see how wide your appreciation is
Ahhh yes, 2009. I was working at a JCPenney that was closing down and those songs were on the radio and the old people who shopped there were NOT amused.
@@treetopjones737 Oh, different voice for sure. But similar chord progression, instrumentation and mix in the production (checked - different producers).
All these songs are giving me really bad nostalgia. There is a situation from my life for 80% of these songs. Crazy how damn memorable those days were to me. I'm tempted to say that life was definitely a lot easier back then, without all these responsibilites and shit I have to deal with every day. Damn I miss being young, even though I'm only 28 😛
@@stevemurrell6167 I'm telling you, I feel like the time between 2013 and now has passed in the blink of an eye. 10 years, just gone. Trying my best to do stuff that will outlast me though, so even if time passes fast, at least my kids get to have fun with the stuff I left behind for them 😀
Yeah... just not my decade. The slow and inevitable death of rock and very little counter culture to take it's place. I do find it interesting that this is the first decade featuring U2. How is that even possible?
Ditto. Thank god I discovered back then that I love lots of music from the goth and dark electro subcultures 😊the stuff nobody knows, but sooo good. Like "Obituary" from Painbastard or "Land of Roses" from Suicide Commando or "Beyond the void" from Diary of Dreams(just my current favs). So much talent in these barely known genres. But ofc impossible to find any reactions to this stuff on YT, generates not enough clicks at all.
@@dranderson6071 You are absolutely wrong. There are no U2 songs on either the 80s or 90s playlists. Beautiful Day is the first and only U2 song on these lists... and its 2000s
Yeah, now I'm down to recognizing about 30% of he songs--and I'm amazed it's that high! It was the rare song that made it through the noise of my life at this time.
Interesting to see the music quality go down the drain over the decades. In my opinion in the 2000s were still maybe 25% well written songs with a real melody and 75% garbage. Nowadays it's almost 100% garbage.
The 60s through the 80 s in my opinion was the era of the greatest music. Of course there is some catchy songs in the 2000s, but there would never be songs like there were back then !
Ouch, the decline of Western Civilization :-) The only thing I got out of that is how stupidly gorgeous Alicia Keys was back in the day. To be fair, this may be as unrepresentative as the 90s one was. Ok, "In the End" isn't bad, and Eminem was a high point. And Green Day and Gorillaz managed to slip into there. And Cee-lo (in Gnarls Barkley guise.) Speaking of which, you should check out some tunes from Cee-lo's Perfect Imperfections album, which is pretty incredible.
Verdy's aural memory and musical knowledge is encyclopedic, let alone, her musical appreciation is off the charts for so many chart toppers. (Bow). Like the French said: Chapeau!
Verdy I saw someone do the second best songs of each month in the 80's and I think this list was more impressive than the number 1's of the 80's and you would recognize a lot of them
Same for the 90s too. A way more representative list of what was popular at the time than the number 1s make it look and a bit more eclectic too.
Dang girl ! You know so many songs from the 80 s 90's and 2000. I was born in 1980 and you know way more than i do. Holy crap.
Your song reactions are very FUN, it makes me glad that someone young knows 80's music and likes it. (Well this one is 00's.) I wish you all the best! John in Sweden.

If you ask me, it's been going down hill since 1975.

I was pretty disinterested about pop music by the 2000's, so I only know some of these.. interesting list
There is a point where the music of the 00's seems to have been composed on the same day, by the same person and in the same bathroom.
Yeah, first name Pro, second name Tools.
Try starting in the 60s and do an album of the year series. I think that would be great.

again, there are more videos about #2's (etc) where we can hit way more hits instead of just #1's...and then you can rewind back to 70s/80s/90s.

They have also one of the 50th perhaps also interesting for you.
Shocked I knew about half of these. (“Knew” means I recognized the song, though I might not be able to name title and/or artist.) I’m guessing I could count on one hand the 2010s.
Am I the only person who thought 7 Nation Army was a popular song?
2000's. Yeah. Let's Go !!!!!
I guess Bring Me to Life was considered the only radio-worthy song from EV during the 2000s. The rest of it seemed to be dominated by pop. Not the type of stuff that a Led Zeppelin, Yes, and Pink Floyd guy from the 70s would be happy about.
You knew more songs from the decade when I was born than I knew of this decade when you were born.
I failed this one miserably.
Could you please react to 2nd Most Popular vids for 60s & 80s?
Maybe do the 1950's and 2010's?
If you ever start doing 2nd most popular songs of 80's and 70's please have both videos open to compare (1st and 2nd hits). Which was more memorable song.
There's also the 1950's, hardly anyone does a reaction to that one. I would really appreciate it if you could. Thanks anyway.
Each of the other 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's video you reacted to had a bunch of hit songs that I had almost forgotten about and wanted to listen to again, but this video....hardly any. There were SO many badly written and overproduced pseudo-R&B and rap "songs" during this decade.
I mean, there were still a lot of great music being made at the time but something happened towards the end of the 90s and the music that was promoted after that point really narrowed down to just a handful of musical genres to the exclusion of everything else. Bands that would have been huge if they'd arrived on the music scene 5 to 10 years early just didn't break through.
drum machine in half the songs going thump,thump,thump,thump
sound exactly the same
Truely awful music.
2000's decade of covers and remakes.
Whelp, I'm glad RUclips disabled downvotes 'cause I'm sure this comment would crash and burn...
There's very little 'feeling' in these songs. It's like they're all flash, no substance.
I think it's in the producing, not the songs themselves. They could be good (or even great) songs but their presentations had all the humanity squeezed out of them.
Of course, there were some bright spots here and there but the majority of them were... uh... [expletive].
But I'm an old fogey, what would I know about music made for teens when I was already pushing 40-50.
I'm pretty sure my parents thought the same about the music of the '60s and '70s.
I think I must have stopped listening to music in the 2000s, there were almost 50 songs I didn't recognize.
Pink Floyd "Echoes"
Yes, 2010s, please!
Also note: on the cluttered screen of RUclips, that this was the 2000s video of yours was hidden because your title is so long. I almost didn't see it.
For example, your previous title was, "Reaction to MOST POPULAR SONG EACH MONTH IN THE 90s."
That shows-up entirely on a YoutTube page.
But, "Reaction to MOST POPULAR SONGS EACH MONTH IN THE 2000s," just shows-up as, "Reaction to MOST POPULAR SONGS EACH MONTH".
Hello Mlle Verdy! I recomend you ...Steve Hackett !!!
Grand bisou in your heart
Oui, 2010s
I beat Verdy in the 70's and 80's but she killed me in the 90's and 00's since I really don't care for Rap or Hip Hop. I do love P!nk though.
Physical media is dead I know, but I did buy 2 CD's - my last - 2 Canadian bands - July Talk and Metric. Would be fun Verdy if you reviewed some of their work.
lol in 2007 im getting to old -yes I know some songs after that
I knew maybe 12 of those songs.
You're missing out on some great songs that were big hits in Europe but not in North America.
*Liquido - Narcotic*
Ooof, yeah, there’s a few gems in here but overall a very noticeable sharp drop in quality compared to the previous decades. Sorry if this comment upsets anyone but… it is what it is
yes please do 2010 it sucks compare to 80s or 90s but still would watch it:)
😜Hola ,great reaction show i have relatives from Canda🇨🇦i from Puerto Rico🇺🇲🇵🇷 i want to now your opinion,between the 60's,70's,80's,90's and 200's so you the host🧐 is part of you work 🫡🎼🎩🎸🎶🎶🎶🤣🤣🤣☮️✌️
Oh my. Notice now the dominance of the American market and American artists. The age of studio production, the real rise of rap. Some great tracks here but overall it doesn't hold a candle to previous decades. Rather sad to reflect now as music becomes increasingly a commercial tool and less an artistic one.
Yes
I gave up on modern music in 2015. It's reached a point where people have become so conditioned into the normalized sound of Autotune that kids or aspiring singers actually try to imitate the robotic autotune sound when they are singing for fun. The late 90's early 2000's at least had songs with actual music, even when sampled or used with autotune, they were far more balanced and memorable than today's dross. They have also killed off the use of real instruments or at least the sounds they make.
Music now doesn't put any actual emphasis on a memorable melody/harmony and just use heavy digital instrument layering the to match the autotune singer's voice. There is no real Intro or bassline you can hum and you'll find you're just humming the words and not the music. We did get songs like Bob the builder and Teletubbies in the late 90's early 00's period but they didn't dominate. Now if you try to hum a modern song, 9 times out of 10 they sound like robotic ballads and you'll find you're actually humming the singers dominant autotuned voice instead of the music.
Try the hum test and see how many songs from the current top 20 you can hum without humming the lyrics, you'll very likely struggle. Then try doing the same from any top 20 (excluding ballads) from any period in the 80's or 90's, you'll start humming the bassline or keyboards before you even hear the first lyric.
I think most of these songs were written in a certain way. Lyrics by committee, music by a group of producers then handed off to the artist, who had almost no input, to perform. They cater to the lowest common denominator more and more these days and it is very surprising when a song written and performed by a single artist or band gets popular now.
lol this is so silly what you've written. Every decade has amazing music and downright bad music. Who are the "auto tune" singers that you are talking about from today? I'd be very interested to know who you are speaking about.
Québécois?
LOVEBITES please!!!!!!
Are all these lists based on popularity according to the American charts?
It is amazing how many of the songs from this time period are absolutely forgettable or I have never heard of with a few exceptions.
The worst that music has ever been to that point. Not a great reflection of society in general.
A few were covers.
@@treetopjones737Boomer
@@Lemon-qs3uz Such an intelligent comment..
@@DoubleMonoLR No but a lot of those feelings stem from being off a certain age and the music no longer catering to you or your life during that time. It happens to everybody, it happened to your parents before you and it can happen to you.
Whenever i hear people say blanket statements like "music today is bad" i just understand that it has just passed them and i keep it moving.
Great idea this concept but would like more than 2 seconds per song. 😢
My only problem with these videos is the constant cuts almost give me nausea.
Some good music here, not my favorite, but still some pretty good tunes.
Thank you for the reaction, have a nice day.
Ayeee... Avril Lavigne and Nelly Furtado representing 🇨🇦
Love them, especially Nelly with Say It Right which is another song with Timbaland, been listening her since I'm Like A Bird and Turn Off The Light.
Timbaland and his songs in the Step Up 2 OST as well with Justin Timberlake are another great moment in the 2000's.
I know almost 98% or 99% of the artists here but some of these songs didn't reach my hears, maybe they were hits over there and some other countries.
Thanks for sharing this my Legend 2002.❤
Nelly is like a bird after all
Yes pls 2010
Im Just fucking amazed how familiar you are with music. You Go girl.
On another Note, in comparison tonthr earlier decades you clearly start to See the Shift from individual musicians and artists to more Corporate pushed acts
Oh idk any of this stuff that's for sure
if you think about it almost all the songs except for 3/4 are totally anonymous compared to the cult songs of the past years .. the evolution of music through the years and the current society we live in now that nothing remains and persists over time but it is essentially driven consumerism
I'm another old fart, and so much of that music in that decade is so forgettable and really awful, music that was was plastic with no originality and a lot of misogyny thrown onto borrowed tunes. The odd good song but not much. But you are young and maybe I liked a lot of rubbish back when. Keep doing reactions though, you're fun to tune into and great to see how wide your appreciation is
Ahhh yes, 2009. I was working at a JCPenney that was closing down and those songs were on the radio and the old people who shopped there were NOT amused.
Adele (2011) sounds a lot like Duffy's song Mercy (2008).
Duffy's voice isn't similar.
@@treetopjones737 Oh, different voice for sure. But similar chord progression, instrumentation and mix in the production (checked - different producers).
Il y quelques bonnes chansons mais globalement c'est une décennie moins créative que les précédentes
Good
All these songs are giving me really bad nostalgia. There is a situation from my life for 80% of these songs. Crazy how damn memorable those days were to me. I'm tempted to say that life was definitely a lot easier back then, without all these responsibilites and shit I have to deal with every day. Damn I miss being young, even though I'm only 28 😛
Always funny to see a person who hasn't even hit 30 missing "being young"!😂

@@Fuerwahrhalunke Good luck!😆
Nice video! I was surprised to see only one song by U2 in three decades (and by far not their best).
Back in the days when almost every song was crap. You know, kind of like today.
Yeah... just not my decade. The slow and inevitable death of rock and very little counter culture to take it's place. I do find it interesting that this is the first decade featuring U2. How is that even possible?
Ditto. Thank god I discovered back then that I love lots of music from the goth and dark electro subcultures 😊the stuff nobody knows, but sooo good. Like "Obituary" from Painbastard or "Land of Roses" from Suicide Commando or "Beyond the void" from Diary of Dreams(just my current favs). So much talent in these barely known genres. But ofc impossible to find any reactions to this stuff on YT, generates not enough clicks at all.
Yeah I just commented the same, very strange given that they became huge in the late '80s.
First decade U2 popped up was 80s reaction, then a few in 90s.
@@dranderson6071 Which months in the '80s video? I see no U2 in there. The only month that comes close is March '88.
@@dranderson6071 You are absolutely wrong. There are no U2 songs on either the 80s or 90s playlists. Beautiful Day is the first and only U2 song on these lists... and its 2000s
Yeah, now I'm down to recognizing about 30% of he songs--and I'm amazed it's that high! It was the rare song that made it through the noise of my life at this time.
Interesting to see the music quality go down the drain over the decades. In my opinion in the 2000s were still maybe 25% well written songs with a real melody and 75% garbage. Nowadays it's almost 100% garbage.
I was born in 1999 😂 a little older than you
you got my thumb up but can keep the "music"..
I stopped listening in january 2000 lol.
The 60s through the 80 s in my opinion was the era of the greatest music. Of course there is some catchy songs in the 2000s, but there would never be songs like there were back then !
Please react to R.E.M.
2000s were a pretty good decade for "bangers". It almost like the 1980s came back with a focus on melody.
A lot of music in the 21st Century that did well in the charts sounds very similar and a little bit generic and a lot of the good music never charted.
Ouch, the decline of Western Civilization :-) The only thing I got out of that is how stupidly gorgeous Alicia Keys was back in the day. To be fair, this may be as unrepresentative as the 90s one was.
Ok, "In the End" isn't bad, and Eminem was a high point. And Green Day and Gorillaz managed to slip into there. And Cee-lo (in Gnarls Barkley guise.) Speaking of which, you should check out some tunes from Cee-lo's Perfect Imperfections album, which is pretty incredible.
