Your favorite pop songs of 2012
 
I am super out of touch. I do not listen to Katy Perry, LMFAO, Nicky Minaj etc.

Share some new radio hits / super duper awesome pop songs that you enjoy.

Cool King 09-10-2012 05:08 AM

LMFAO songs are absolutely diabolical.

Cool King 09-10-2012 05:08 AM

But that's just my opinion.

Cool King 09-10-2012 05:40 AM

I never noticed your mention of Nicky Minaj there.

Her songs are pretty bad too.

Cool King 09-10-2012 05:41 AM

But again....

Though a more serious post here, I feel that the quality of "popular music" has dramatically declined in recent years.

Your average "popular song" these days consists of some kind of electronic beat, auto-tune, and lyrics talking about how great sex is, how great alcohol is and how great the two are combined.

I tend not to listen to "popular music" because I find most of them to be terrible. The only time I really hear the stuff is when I'm out at a bar/club on a night out. Though I will say there are a few songs that I hear and I enjoy, but very rarely does that happen.

love this.

I was woken up by that song last week.

Some woman had it playing in her parked car really loud with her window open. :(

Hornicane 09-10-2012 09:07 AM

We listen to the top 40 every Saturday at work. These are some songs that get some heavy play that I've noticed I don't hate.

SPOILER: show

I do enjoy a bit of Kelly Clarkson, myself.

XCaliber 09-10-2012 11:44 AM

That's KC song is the only song that comes to mind from this year and I'm not even a fan of hers particularly it's not been a good year for pop.

Gertner 09-10-2012 12:21 PM

LMFAO's song are fantastic.

Not ashamed to admit that I sing "Call Me Maybe" whenever it comes on the radio at work.

Corporate CockSnogger 09-10-2012 12:26 PM

Haven't heard much chart stuff as of late but anything by Maroon 5 makes me tingle like a little girl.

Corporate CockSnogger 09-10-2012 12:28 PM

Don't really have a problem with most chart stuff though really. I don't tend to go out of my way to listen to a lot of pop songs but I don't vigorously hate it like some people seem to and I find myself humming along or something more often than not.

It's a catchy song.

CSL 09-10-2012 12:30 PM

it's all awful except for Call Me Maybe

everything is awful except for Call Me Maybe

CSL 09-10-2012 12:30 PM

going to listen to Call Me Maybe

El Vaquero de Infierno 09-10-2012 12:32 PM

I don't listen to chart music and probably couldn't name anybody that is frequently played on pop radio stations.

I am currently switching between Gianluigi Trovesi/Gianni Coscia's Round About Weill (Jazz) and Patricia Petibon's Airs Baroques Francais albums.

slik 09-10-2012 12:50 PM

I enjoyed the Tiesto cover of Avicii's Levels until is was played non-stop. Not sure if that was this year or last though.

And I had a Call Me Maybe phase.

fucking love Call Me Maybe

that Lights song is good stuff as well

GD 09-10-2012 05:21 PM

Thank you guys! Feel free to share videos in this thread.

Gertner 09-10-2012 07:52 PM

Elie Goulding "Lights" is fantastic.

GD 09-10-2012 08:00 PM

Yeah.

GD 09-10-2012 08:02 PM

A while back, I thought this album was okay.

Juan 09-10-2012 08:27 PM

Lights is a great song, but why are they just now playing that song on the radio? I've been listening to it for over a year and it was released like 2 years ago.

Hornicane 09-10-2012 08:38 PM

Dunno. On the top 40 countdown it hit number one a week or two ago and they mentioned it was the slowest climb to 1 in like 13 years or something. The whole album is pretty good though. :y:

Besides hearing a few hits in a night club (sometimes in a dub step remix) or someone's car, I don't listen to the top hits on my own free will on a radio or anything, I just stick with bands I like or recommendations.

I don't like Katy Perry, LMFAO or Nicky Minaj at all, but I did like that Skrillex song on Beavis & Butt-Head that uses that "CALL 911!" sample.

Lana Del Rey isn't bad from what I heard and I liked Lady Gaga's live Princess Di song, but I don't think that was a big hit or anything.

Taylor Swift-We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together is the best thing on commercial radio right now, by a large measure.

Blitz 09-10-2012 09:32 PM

Imagine Dragons-It's Time is the best rock radio track at the moment.

Juan 09-10-2012 09:55 PM

This song has also been a guilty pleasure of mine

Taylor Swift's new single is cute. Love most of her stuff.

I dunno, seems to be a hit at the parties I've played it at.
