19-2000", sometimes written "19/2000", is a song from Gorillaz' self-titled debut album Gorillaz. It was the second single from the album, released in June 2001. 19-2000" reached number six in the United Kingdom and number 34 on the US Billboard Mainstream Top 40 chart. It was particularly successful in New Zealand, where it reached the number-one spot for a week in September 2001.

19-2000 is the eleventh track and second single on Gorillaz' 2001 album "Gorillaz". A marked departure from their previous rap-driven hit, this was, in its Soulchild Remix incarnation (the only version to get major radio airplay in the UK and Europe) three ecastatic minutes of pure pop. Whilst not as big a hit as "Clint Eastwood", the single charted well in the UK and sold consistently for weeks.

19–2000 fit the bill. It was either that, or ‘Millennium’ and that’s a shit name for a song. There’s a reason why I asked to use the computer and read all I could about Gorillaz after the song was over.
