I roll with “20”. “Two-thousand and” just sounds annoyingly clunky to me. Low-key irritant, even, but everyone’s different.

That’s the best way, IMO. “Two-thousand and” just sounds so wrong.

According to Ella Langley it's Twanty Twanty.
![]() Listen to the 20 20 song, it's how she sings it lol. Edit... Just to clarify, I like hearing people's accents come through on songs, it adds character.

I know we don’t see eye-to-eye all the time but I absolutely agree with you.
