You know the song "we didn't start the fire" by Billy Joel where he lists all the important events. well I was thinking how many events that happened between 2000 the current could be made into a modern version of that song so I was thinking lets here some of your suggestions. We got 119 spots and once that's filled we fill another lot :lol:. So I'll start just put it in a list and say where it is placed so I can make up the entire song (a.k.a in chronological order {in an order of when it happened}) on the main. the next lot after the 1st cannot have anything the 1st has just to make it tricky :lol:. So to start I'll list some.

2002:


2003:


2004:

Y2K and George Bush wins,
Yankees make New Yorkers grin,
Peanuts fin'lly ends its run,
Computer crashes aren't fun.

September in New York is hell,
The nation grieves, the towers fell,
AA 587 down,
US Troops are on the ground.

[Chorus]

United Airlines is no more,
20-17 final score,
I-40 bridge comes down,
California scorched and brown.

Columbia's gone lost in flight
KCGX razed overnight,
Marlins take the Yanks to town,
Old Man of the Mountain crumbles down.

[Chorus]

Boston stages epic win,
Expos Washingtonian,
Bush wins White House again,
Resignation of Sec. Colin.

Youtube goes online,
Housing bubble's no longer fine,
Katrina comes crashing in,
Bombings throughout London.

[Chorus]

Pixar now owned by the mouse,
Serbia finally says 'I'm out,'
DNA gets all sequenced,
A Wii to share with your friends.

Steve Jobs' phone sells really well
Europe's heat sure feels like hell,
Madeleine McCann is gone,
Liz's reign as Queen's real long.

[Chorus]

Housepets comes on the net,
Stocks are an awful bet,
Obama's in and Bush is out,
Bitcoin's there for folks to flout.

Sully really has some skill,
Swine flu gives folks a nasty chill,
The '16 Games are in Rio,
Avatar's the year's big show.

[Chorus]

Haiti gets all shaken up,
Spain wins the World Cup,
Instagram's the world's new craze,
Germany's reparations paid.

One big wave hits Japan,
That wasn't part of the plan,
3DS hits the stores,
Osama claimed to be no more.

[Chorus]
