Let’s throw it back to the year 1999. Computers at this time could only count the last two digits of numbers, so they didn’t know the difference between 1900 and 2000. People spent tons of money stocking up because they thought the world was going to end when it turned midnight. Thank goodness it did not! Nineteen years later we’re still here. What’s even better is that we’ve gotten to experience the awesome music that was released in 2000. So, here’s a Happy 19th Birthday to 19 songs released in 2000.
