Brace yourselves, Millennials. Tweenage nostalgia strikes again. Vanessa Carlton, the crooning pop beauty of your angsty youth, has dropped a new album. Don't worry, you're not about to wake up in your 7th-grade bedroom, this is real life, and it happened today. The artist, who hasn't aged a day since we had "A Thousand Miles," in our CD player, released Liberman. Fans can purchase both a regular and a deluxe version, according to her website. Liberman is available on vinyl, CD and digital download. Need something to do over the weekend? We recommend changing into your old Juicy tracksuit as you melt like a pack of overheated Gushers over the lyrics of Liberman (on CD, of course). We got pretty nostalgic thinking about Carlton's new work, so we put together a carefully curated list of '00s pop darlings who also need to brighten our day with a comeback.  

The orange computer, the curiously AOL-themed email, the bare midriffs. Hoku's "Another Dumb Blonde" perfectly encapsulates everything that was right with our youth. BTW, we're pretty sure that entire snow bunny outfit is straight Delia's. So where the heck is she now? Sadly, she hasn't Tweeted since 2009, so we may never know. Come back, Hoku, every day was a "Perfect Day" with you in it. 

This was the best group Sean "Diddy" Combs ever created. Toodles, Danity Kane and Da Band! Who else was left desperately licking the scratches off their Dream CD after playing "He Loves You Not" on repeat? You'll be pleased to know that the band announced a comeback this year and even have the Facebook page to prove it!  

We still have no idea what it means to "Hit 'Em Up Style" but we do know that we used to force our mom to play this on her high-tech car CD player. Blu Cantrell, how could you leave us hanging after such a glorious tune? Where are you now that we need you? 

We're living for this adorable Adrienne Bailon flashback, not to mention those crop tops, patchwork jeans, and hair bandanna. 3LW, released "No More (Baby I'ma Do Right), slaying their way through the '00s, and into our hearts. 

You thought we forgot about her, didn't you? How could we? Michelle Branch and Vanessa were practically the Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera for artsy girls everywhere. Gasp! What's this we see? According to her website, Christmas has come early: Branch is releasing a new album! Somebody get the defibrillator.
