Have you ever felt the biggest rush of nostalgia when watching films like John Tucker Must Die, Freaky Friday, Legally Blonde, 13 Going on 30, etc.?
If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to live in that era, look no further, because these 15 songs will make you feel like the main character in a 2000 movie.
- “About You Now” By Sugababes
Imagine you’re out in the town with your girlfriends and stumble across a vintage costume shop. Cue the ultimate fashion montage between you and your friends. You’re laughing and enjoying the time of your life, and don’t want the day to end.
This is exactly what happens in the film Wild Child, and why it’s one of my favourite songs to listen to when I’m feeling nostalgic!
- “Like Whoa” By Aly & AJ
Aly and AJ were the Disney IT girls, and their Insomniatic album brought us the smash “Potential Breakup Song,” so it’s only right that I included another of their songs on this list.
The chorus of their song never fails to transport me to that era.
- “Perfect Day” By Hoku
Do I need to say more than this song played during the intro to the most iconic 2000 chick flick of all time: Legally Blonde?
- “Dirty Little Secret” By All American Rejects
If you’ve ever tried to binge watch every 2000 movie you can find, you’ll understand how popular this song is.
When you listen to this song, you can’t help but feel transported back in time.
- “Kiss Me” By The Sixpence None The Richer
It was a must to include this song to the list. After all, it was included in She’s All That, one of the most popular old rom-com films.
- “Jump To The Rhythm” By Jordan Pruitt
The perfect song for a sunny day out in the year 2000.
- “Girlfriend” by Avril Lavigne
It’s Avril Lavigne, the owner of the 2000 pop genre, do I have to say anything else?
- “That’s What Girls Do” By No Secrets
Imagine you’re enjoying the ultimate sleepover with your best pals, complete with scavenger hunts and having a blast.
That’s exactly how this song feels, and I’m not saying that just because it was used in the 2004 chick flick, Sleepover.
- “Say It Right” By Nelly Furtado
Nelly Furtado’s 2006 album was filled with hit after hit. One of the album’s most memorable songs is “Say It Right.”
From the first verse to the chorus, this whole song screams 2000s.
