“Hollaback Girl” proved divisive with critics, with this publication decrying it as second-rate Queen, but this list’s voters evidently have latched on to Gwen’s feminine sport anthem. Stefani actually wrote “Hollaback Girl” with producer Pharrell Williams in reaction to a derogatory statement made by Courtney Love labeling Stefani a cheerleader. From the outset, it’s pretty obvious that Stefani is a cheerleader, and a damn good one. The cut’s Spartan beat proved wildly successful in the club, with Stefani’s invocations leading legions of ladies (and dudes) in an empowering urban shout-along. –Mike Orme

歌曲“Hollaback Girl”的评论两极分化非常严重，尽管有杂志谴责它是二流女王的做派，但本次（pitchfork十年榜）投票者显然对Gwen的女性运动风圣歌展现出浓厚兴趣。“Hollaback Girl”是Gwen Stefani与制作人Pharrell Williams谱写的歌曲，旨在对Courtney Love把Gwen贬低为“啦啦队长”的言论做出回击。从歌曲开始，很显然，Gwen Stefani是那位啦啦队长，还是个屌炸天的啦啦队长。歌曲斯巴达式的节奏在俱乐部大获成功，Gwen以Urban式的大声疾呼带领着一大批女孩（和男孩）前进。
