The Greatest Songs Of The NoughtiesPrevious Episode Watch this episode now on 4oD A countdown of the decade's best hits as voted for by viewers, critics and industry figures. Will it just be lots of TV talent show winners or will acts like Arctic Monkeys and The Killers chart?
Channel 4 have conducted a survey with the leading critics and industry figures, and asked the public in a YouGov national poll to tell us what they think were the greatest songs of the last 10 years. With new ways to access our favourite tunes, it is near impossible to take the Sunday chart ratings as a true guide as to what people like. The Greatest Songs of the Noughties counts down from 20 to number one what our real favourite hits are.
It's a long time since we saw Bob the Builder's Can We Fix It? reach the top spot as the Christmas number one in 2000, but has our taste in music grown up and moved on from such novelty hits? At a time where our charts are dominated by TV talent show winners, will acts like The Killers or Arctic Monkeys even feature? Has Beyonce swept all before her? Where will Kylie come? And will we dare to admit that Beautiful is actually not that bad?
The Greatest Songs of the Noughties features some of the biggest names in music, from Snow Patrol's Gary Lightbody to Will Young to Franz Ferdinand's Alex Kapranos, giving their views on what they think was hot and not from the past decade. Has this been a golden age of entertainment or an era of cultural recession? The Greatest Songs of the Noughties reveals all. Narrated by James Corden.
