Not the names of years, but numbers larger than 100.

Short version of rules
Without using a search engine to find one, write down at least eight words of a song containing the word (or the topic, if it's a general topic).
If it's the newest word, play once, and wait for another player to play before you go again.
On older words, you can play over and over without waiting!

Lord I'm one, Lord I'm two, Lord I'm three, Lord I'm four

With a hundred and ten cornets close at hand

Ah, gee, we looked swell
Full of that yankee-doodle-ee-dum
Half a million boots

Just remember that you're standing on a planet
that's evolving
and revolving at 900 miles an hour...

Picnicking out on the warm water's shore.
Nobody notes that wer're always at hand,
to watch all the spaceship that take off and land.

I think I might have loved you.
These things I said but you were a million miles away.

a 1000 and 3
I love you
I love you
I love you, I do,
and oh, I know you love me

The Grand old Duke of York
He had ten thousand men
I was born a hundred thousand years ago
And there's nothing in this world I do not know
Why the flag started flying when George Washington stopped lying
And I'll lick the man who says it isn't so.

"black balloon" (goo goo dolls)
