#TheN0ughtie5 Day 14
#37 Usher ft. Lil Jon, Ludacris - Yeah! (2004 🇺🇸 )
My highlight is Lil Jon hype-manning to the max throughout, Ludacris is fun but "i'ma milk the cow"?, Usher obviously stays smooth throughout. Yeah!
#TheN0ughtie5 Day 12
#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.
#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).
#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).
