Released: 2002 Sounds: 2009 This type of music is called "electroclash", but I have a huge feeling that a lot of electropop in 2009 took a page from this type of music from the early 2000s

Released: 2003
Sounds: 2009
Ok, electroclash sounds on the whole a little too retro. But combine it with more modern electrohouse beats, and you get that 2009 sound!
Released: 1983
Sounds: 1994
Crazy to think this predates hair metal!

Amen - Passion Running Through My Vains
From 1996 but sounds like a song from 2000/2001.
To be fair it has a 90s vibe in way but both the video and the song still feel shockingly 2001ish.

Released: 2006
Sounds: 1988
This rips the late 80s electro sound off so much that it could easily fit in that era. At least musically if it wasn't for all the ridiculous mid-00s slang.

Released in 1970 but it sounds like a 1966 Motown song.

A lot of 2000s urban songs have 80s electro influence. I doubt to that extent though. "Fergalicious" straightup takes a sample of an electro song and just loops it over and over: It also shamelessly rips this song completely off:

I had recently discovered this song. My first initial instinct was that this song was released in the mid 90s, but to my surprise came out in 1989. Sounds straight up like a quintessential 90s rock song.

This is from 1999. It has a 2015-ish sound to me:

I know this technically wouldn't count, but it sounds so quintessentially mid-1960s it's odd to think that the first season of Scooby-Doo aired mostly in 1970 with this intro when mainstream pop rock already had moved on well past this cheery, simplistic British Invasion-type of stuff towards more much complex arrangements instead: Well, the late '60s weren't just complicated-sounding psychedelic rock songs. If anything, bubblegum pop made a huge comeback on the heels of the Jackson 5, who debuted around the exact same time. Heck, "Sugar Sugar" was the #1 song at the time of the show's debut. The song's production also sounds distinctly late '60s/early '70s; the mid-'60s, by contrast, were dominated by Phil Spector-ish reverb and echo, not this type of tightly knotted mixing. I think I brought this up on the InThe00s version of this thread, but one show that has had an outdated-sounding intro imo is Pokémon. The famous Indigo League intro is from 1998, but it absolutely screams '80s, specifically 1983 (when arena rock was still dominant but things were just starting to develop that MTV sound), If you visit the Genius page for the song, it compares the composition to Bon Jovi's "Runaway", which is just what I thought upon revisiting it for the first time in awhile a few years ago. Even the vocalist on the song sounds extremely out of place for the time. He sings with the theatrical gusto of a 1980s pop star, when by 1998, music was dominated by acts like Foo Fighters, *NSYNC (yes, even their singing style wasn't that over-the-top), and Everclear. The Indigo League theme remains a classic, of course, but for the Orange Islands season, 4Kids tried harder to sound "modern", I guess, but instead ended up sounding more like East 17, a boyband popular in the early-to-mid-'90s, than the Backstreet Boys or *NSYNC:

From 1997, but recorded in 1995, and the two-year gap between recording and releasing really shows.

This Barbra Streisand cover sounds very, very 1984, and yet it's from...1993?

This hit from 2011 is ahead of it's time and could easily be a hit around 2014/2015
