30. Underdog (Save Me) by Turin Brakes
This contains my favourite acoustic guitar solo from any song. Bit of a shame they released this so early in their career cos they've never been able to top it.

29. No Tomorrow by Orson
Bit of a guilty pleasure this one, but me and the Mrs adored this song, many an evening was spent dancing around our living room to this, before our kids were twinkles in our eyes...

28. Been Training Dogs by The Cooper Temple Clause
Fond memories of this band, and this album in particular - I played it a lot! Loudly! Also a great live band whom I saw quite a few times in the 00s.

Can't say I ever really listen to them anymore, but I adored Starsailor in the 00s, saw them a few times, always great live. This is my favourite tune of theirs.

24. World Wide Suicide by Pearl Jam
90s PJ will always be my fave PJ, but they've had a constantly strong output since, and this is one of many 00s PJ songs I could've gone with.

17. Before I Forget by Slipknot
I adore Slipknot. More of a fan of their 10s output rather than their 00s output, but still one of the best bands of the decade. This tune is one of many I could've chosen!

00s Oasis were woeful in comparison to 90s Oasis, but saying that, there was the occasional gem. This gem also happened to be the first dance at my wedding 🙂

The 00s were occasionally quite emo-flavoured for me, and FOB were a big part of that. Loads of great songs from their first few albums, but going with this one.
