#TheN0ughtie5 Day 9
#42 The Postal Service - Such Great Heights (2003 🇺🇸 )
This could get its place purely for bleeps bibbling between my speakers/ headphones. Apparently a song about the radness of being in love, but I always think there's a darker edge there (sorry Ben).
#TheN0ughtie5 Day 6
#45 Saint Etienne - Heart Failed (In the Back of a Taxi) (2000 🇬🇧 )
You can always count on Saint Etienne for a swoony, sad, nostalgia-infused track - this one with a bite of anger too.
#TheN0ughtie5 Day 11
#40 Amadou & Mariam feat. Manu Chao - Sénégal Fast Food (2004 🇲🇱 🇫🇷 🇪🇸 )
I got to see Amadou & Mariam later in the 00s post-Welcome To Mali, but I'm picking this mid-00s treat.
#TheN0ughtie5 Day 10
#41 Scissor Sisters - Filthy/ Gorgeous (2004 🇺🇸 )
In the mid-00s I seemed to constantly be at Scissor Sister gigs (especially enjoyed Halloween at Brixton Academy). I chose this one as it feels closest to the fun of seeing them live (and the laser pows).

#39 Phoenix - Too Young (2000 🇫🇷 ) NKC ❌
I didn't have enough space for all my French faves (sorry Modjo, Justice, Air), but had to include this insouciant slice of sort of yacht-rock.

#43 Bloc Party - Helicopter (2004 🇬🇧 )
For as relentlessly forward motion as this song is, my favourite bits are when it pauses for a beat. The album was the soundtrack to me painting my first flat - excellent 'keep going' energy.
#TheN0ughtie5 Day 7
#44 Felix Da Housecat feat. Miss Kittin - Silver Screen (Shower Scene) (2001 🇺🇸 🇫🇷 )
Shiny, pumping, house beats and just so slick.

S: how stressful? not sure a person could cross that bridge, never mind two mega trucks
BV: v. good, although my expectations for weirdness were raised so much it seemed quite conventional
CoP: amazing crowd scenes and production history. Baptiste was creepy.

#46 Spank Rock - Bump (2006 🇺🇸 )
Slightly spicy, textured (love the drones and the crisp percussion), rap for a Friday. Amanda Blank in particular is keeping her sh1t nasty, including throwing some shade at Fergie and the Black Eyed Peas.

#38 Panjabi MC - Mundian To Bach Ke (2002 🇬🇧 )
You should always say yes to a bhangra/ Busta Rhymes/ Knight Rider infused bop.

🚨Wah Wah Wah Wah 🚨
Still feels completely fresh, what a slinky tune - Mis-Teeq are currently so back.

#48 CSS - Let's Make Love and Listen to Death From Above (2006* 🇧🇷)
Bags of fun and also representing a slew of skinny jeans/ fluorescent pops bands (looking at you New Young Pony Club). I had forgotten the term 'new-rave'!
[* Wiki has four dates so I went for the discogs one.]

#49 Tweet feat. Missy Elliott (3/3) - Oops (Oh My) (2002 🇺🇸)
Missy Elliott is the only artist who gets more than one named pick because she is Missy Elliott and she rules. This track, though, appears on the list purely because of Charlene Keys and her intoxicating sultriness.

#50 The Chemical Brothers feat Q-Tip - Galvanize (2004 🇬🇧 🇺🇸)
"Don't hold back ..."
I'm ranking. Starting with a 90s favourite, who stormed at Glastonbury '04 and always seemed to be one of the picks at (very 00s) BFI BUG (where I discovered a few of my possible HMs).
