In this article, I want to talk about the best and my favorite era, the Inbetweens or 2010-2012. The songs were peppy and exciting. It’s the songs that the kids of the early 2000s grew up listening to.

For the first part, let’s discuss 2010s music. The beginning of a new decade. The beginning and the very start and reason it is called 2010s. The start of good music.

From that article I picked 18 of the most popular and most well known songs of 2010. The songs that most of the early 2000s generation grew up listening to on the radio. Maybe on the way home from school, a long road trip. Making the road trip an enjoyable car ride, we all know car rides are the worst part of it all, especially when little kids are also in the car with you.
The happy peppy songs that made any car ride way better than before.

It made music happy and exciting. I love the inbetweens. The music was unique and my favorite.
