Scottish indie rock band Franz Ferdinand may have been something of a one-hit-wonder with this 2004 song, but we think it's still a bop. And even more: Missy Elliott proved she can still perform this song well (and made Taylor Swift and Halsey bust some moves) at the 2019 VMAs. But for this list, we're going with her 2001 song from So Addictive, "Get Ur Freak On." Its bhangra-meets-jungle beat ( produced by Timbaland) and other futuristic sounds make this track impossible not to dance to. Missy Elliott ruled the early 2000s, and she has so many hits from the decade, it's hard to pick one favorite.

From their critically-acclaimed 2001 album Discovery, "One More Time" masterfully samples Eddie Johns' 1979 disco track "More Spell On You."

"Crazy In Love" is the song that began Beyoncé’s legendary solo career, and it also features some bits from Jay-Z back when the two were just dating! Ah, memories.Īlthough Daft Punk is now a retired robot duo, their 2000 party track "One More Time" will forever remain a classic. Fresh off her stint as a group member of Destiny's Child, "Crazy In Love" was the ridiculously successful lead single from Beyoncé’s debut album Dangerously In Love. Queen Bey is one of those incredible artists where there's no difference between her newer and older songs: all of it is straight fire.

Instead of clapping back, Stefani took the cheerleader comment to heart and made this pumped-up piece of artistry instead, which reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2005.

Perhaps the greatest diss track of all time, Gwen Stefani's "Hollaback Girl" is a bass-heavy hit with a whole lotta attitude. And who can forget Britney as a super spy in the music video! Oh, and did you know "Toxic" was originally written for Kylie Minogue? It's still a relevant song today, as proven by its use in Emerald Fennell's Promising Young Woman.
