Old-school Winamp. I use Spotify these days, but man it was fun to customise skins and play with the awesome visualisers.
Half-Life 3 would also be nice, but I guess it was never "around" to begin with.

Still works. Winamp is still my main music player (with classic skin, of course). I run it through Wine on Fedora 28. Some things cause crashes, but the only things I really care about are MilkDrop, the media library, and playlists and they all work fine. I've never been able to find something that comes close to MilkDrop.
Here are my installation instructions (after installing Wine) although I haven't tried them fresh in a few years (Fedora and Wine upgrades haven't screwed anything up):
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Winetricks/winetricks/master/src/winetricks
$ chmod +x winetricks
$ ./winetricks -q directmusic directplay directx9 gdiplus ie8 mfc42 wmp10 windowmanagerdecorated=n
$ ./winetricks winamp
Launch Winamp
To get rid of some weird font issues: Right click Winamp > Options > Preferences... > General Preferences > Playlist > select Use font: MS Sans Serif
To fix bug https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12060: Winamp > Options > Preferences... > Plug-ins > Visualization > MilkDrop v2.25c > Configure > WINDOWED settings > Uncheck Integrate with winamp skinhttps://techcrunch.com/2018/10/15/winamp-returns-in-2019-to-...
- Load any classic Winamp skin just by dragging it onto the main window. - If a skin specifies some transparent regions in its region.txt, they are respected.

Indeed, the lack of the UI shittification creep that we saw in iTunes, Skype, MS Office etc has made it look even better, faster, sleeker in comparison!

You wanted to queue songs? middle click the heck out of your playlist. want to stop on end of queue? that was an option
you want to add to queue on spotify it's like 2 cumbersome clicks, you can't just go gattling-gun i want "this this this to play next"
jump to song was fantastic - with a global hotkey.
audacious with the winamp skin gets close to all this, but just misses somehow.
Hotkeys and mouse bindings should be fairly easy to update.
