The Best Songs That Came Out in the 2000s

Paper Planes- M.I.A.

Paper Planes would not have been a market banger if it weren’t for Seth Rogan and Pineapple Express using it as a commercial song. After that movie granted M.I.A. the much-needed publicity that she deserved, everything else she made was a massive success.

The More You Know

Layne Staley asked Jerry Cantrell to play in a funk band and agreed to sing in Cantrell’s band in exchange. The funk band didn’t last but Cantrell’s band became Alice in Chains.
Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez used to make YouTube videos together.
All members of Nirvana were kicked out from their own release party for starting a food fight.
Before they became (arguably) the biggest pop act of all time, The Beatles had a hard time convincing record labels to sign them. In 1962, they were rejected by Decca Records, whose boss said “guitar groups are on the way out.”
