Popular Songs Of 2005


If you're an avid listener of popular music and this post doesn't make you feel old, you're doing better than I am right now. Because I can hardly fathom that the songs on this list are already 10 years old! This is but a sampling of the biggest hits of 2005, but you'll definitely get a feel for that year in music from this selection. There are more of these posts to come, one decade back at a time. Next up, Popular Songs of 1995 – and there will be so many of those that I'll have to split it up into multiple posts... Enjoy!  ~  JH
