Music bingo › Noughties
Noughties music bingo with the hits of the 2000s
The noughties are the decade of R&B, pop-punk, the first big dance hits and ringtones. For anyone who was young around the turn of the millennium, this is the music of their first proper parties.
As a music bingo the decade works well, because the choruses are huge and the songs still get plenty of radio play. For a younger crowd this is often a better pick than the eighties.

R&B, pop-punk and dance mixed
The strength of the noughties is the breadth. Put R&B next to pop-punk and the first big dance hits and you have a list nobody can ignore. Alternate the styles to keep the pace up.
Talent show hits
This decade produced songs everyone knows whether they like it or not. Perfect for a bingo where recognition matters more than taste.
Extending into the 2010s
For a young crowd you can carry the list forward into the 2010s. That makes the bingo accessible to guests who did not consciously live through the noughties.
Or grab the ready-made list
Rather not hunt for songs? The app has Nillies waiting, curated and checked for playable previews. Open it, start it, play. Pasting your own playlist still works too.
