Full Moon @ 10 and All For You @ 23

They had 1+1 from Beyoncé on there over Irreplaceable, Naughty Girl, Crazy in Love, Me Myself & I, etc

This list is full of classics,  and would make it hard for me to list them in a correct order.

Happy to see Just A Friend. But Mario's Let Me Love You is set the standard for male R&B during the era and should be on that list.

Dangerously in Love wasn't technically a single but it def felt like the 6th single from the era. I would argue that it deserves top 10 and yes for Full Moon! Under appreciated.

I consider Dangerously In Love as a single. It was played on the radio, had a video, and was performed at The Grammys. I would choose DIL over Crazy In Love any day.

I honestly disagree with the Bey songs they chose
They clearly were trying to not choose big hits so it looks like they really care but they could've done End of Time or Party over 1+1
and clearly Crazy In Love over DIL
