by 9/29/2011

VH1′s latest entry in The Greatest series is one that’s sure to stir up plenty of debate! Counting down The 100 Greatest Songs of the ’00s, host Pete Wentz (whose own “Sugar, We’re Going Down” comes in at #40 on the list!) and a murderer’s row of your favorite comedians and musicians provide their expert analysis (and a few jokes along the way) on songs that made the aughts such a memorable decade, musically speaking.

If you can’t catch the show on-air, we wanted to share with you the entire list of songs, from #100 all the way down to #1 (if you’re on Spotify, you can listen to VH1′s Greatest Songs Of The ’00s there).
