23 Songs Turning 20 Years Old in 2023
Congratulations, we all made it to a new year.
That also means we’re another year removed from certain benchmarks. 2023, for example, means it's been 20 years since the invention of MySpace, the infamous Oakwood mutiny here in the Philippines, THAT kiss between Madonna and Britney Spears at the MTV Video Music Awards, and the capture of Saddam Hussein by American soldiers in Iraq, among many other momentous events in history. You know, simpler times.
Anyway, here are 23 songs that first hit the airwaves (and file-sharing networks) or became hugely popular in 2003, exactly two decades ago. Congratulations, you’re old.
