LondonNorthern posting about a 2006 released Justin Timberlake song inspired me to post this list of 25 great (well IMHO) songs released since 2000.
Of course, the best music was recorded / released in the 1960s & 1970s - it's my era ;-) - but I try to keep up!
Many of the songs on my list were global hits, but my top, top faves are probably tracks that may not be so readily recognised...i.e. Erykah Badu, Frank Ocean, Kendrick Lamar & Lorde
