James Blunt - You're Beautiful (hate this song)

Over played on the radio, with the ruder version on the CD, and we always use to listen out in case radio stations played the wrong version on air.

Good ones.

Bow Wow was definitely big that year, and -- like Chris Brown, Rihanna, and T-Pain -- Trey Songz made his debut in 2005.

I know James Blunt's "You're Beautiful" came out in late 2005, but I associate it more with 2006 since it got much more airplay that year.

Ditto for Nelly, Beyonce, and Keyshia Cole. I remember Nelly's "Grillz" being all over the radio in 2006, as well as Beyonce's "Irreplaceable." I think I first heard Keyshia Cole in P. Diddy's "Last Night," which also came out in 2006.

I like how you read "Destiny's Child" as "Beyonce".

I actually thought of Chris Brown but went ehh. Its good to have other users remind you of the artists that were present in that era. Chris Brown, dude peaked at the beginning of his career.

If he's a one-hit wonder, then why did I hear several other songs of his on the radio in the mid 00s? Including "She's No You", and also "Leavin'" from 2008 was a moderate hit too.

I played that game all summer in 2005. It was fun using Umberon and Epson from the beginning.

Songs like "Hollaback Girl" and "My Humps" really make me nostalgic for 2005, as cheesy as those songs were.
