As these last 10 years draw to a close please share the one song that has come out that you think best sums up this decade. As a bonus and be honest what song of the last 10 years have really stuck with you over and over again.

I'll start and while some if not most will scream blasphemy! I ask you to listen and read just the first 1:17 of the lyric's

Great songs on here!

American idiot is perfect

MINE

I don't think this is the best song of the decade, but it says a lot about the 00s.

About how people hide behind anonymity of the INTERNET to proclaim deity status (and who knows what else about themselves.

But it can also be taken as an indictment of pop culture, with reality stars and celbutantes being famous for being famous, and us rewarding people for being idiots. (ref back to green day)

Or as this youtuber, posits, as a reflection of the arrogance of the Bush administration and them not needing proof to engage in preemptive destruction.

I think of it even as a position of arrogance in general, with people like Bernie Madoff and Jack Abramoff, thinking they're indestructible.

-------------------------------

The best song of the 00s?

That's impossible. I don't know. Instead I'll just pick the most pretentious sounding

song title of the 00s --- Auberge Le Mouton Noir (That and these guys were great at the Magic Stick--good late night music)

To respond to an earlier poster (with far greater personal musical talent than myself),

I can confidently state that not only is Milkshake not the best song of the 00s, it's not even the best Kelis song of the 00s

THIS IS

      How Are You Feeling? (cont'd)

      ~~~~~ Yeah, thank you for the check-in.   Happy to say it was all a misunderstanding.  But she pulled out her "ghetto" and that's when things went South.  I get very professional minded when I enter into situations like that because when someone starts bring the court into conversations, I'm in court 2 times a year, every year, so don't go there with me because I will get legal all over you.   She did try to change what she thought she might have said, but I had to call her on it because it's all in written text.  Then she apologized and we were able to have a decent conversation.   I know I joke about me talking so much that people don't hear what I say except for keywords that they are looking for, but that is exactly what happened here.  She heard "payment", "money" and "help out".  It was crazy.  I literally had to have the entire conversation all over again, but I definitely condensed it to only address those 3 words.   Things are back on track, but I emphasized that if she every needed clarification for anything, please say something first instead of jumping to conclusions, then questioning that conclusion, then answering that conclusion, then getting upset at the answer and taking it out on someone who doesn't have a clue what the San Juan Hill just happened.   But this is exactly the reason I do everything with a paper trail.

      I'm glad  that yesterday's day at work is long gone now. There was a very strong unusual energy that I felt, and couldn't get done with the day fast enough. It wasn't  the job at all. I just felt like I really needed to keep my mouth shut, to keep me from getting in situation(s) that probably wouldn't have ended well for me.

      You can trust anyone you want.  The only question is whether or not they're deserving of that trust. No risk = no reward.  As such you have to let yourself be vulnerable sometimes and realize that all people will let you down eventually whether it's intentional or not.  The frequency that it happens is what's important.

      Sorry, I don't check this as often as I should. Anyway document everything (although it sounds like @Trene4000already has been from her post.) It's okay to cry and break down, but not in front of them.  Never give them the satisfaction of seeing you crack.  If anything I'd go out of my way to piss them off, but I don't like being that guy either (and as such I'm not very good at it, except sometimes when I'm not intending to be.) I try to only help those whom deserve it, but that's often hard to judge.  Seeing how someone treats other people is a pretty good indicator of whether or not they're worthy.  Sociopathic narcissistic asshats are very much not worthy. I hope things are going well for you guys.
