Is it just me, or does anyone think that there were a lot more awesome pop songs released in 2010 than in 2011? 2010 was the year that Dynamite, King of Anything, and The Show Goes On were all released. And I can't think of any song released in 2011 that I like as much.

The first one was bad and the next two I don't even remember.

2011 had Party Rock Anthem, Rolling in the Deep, Sexy and I Know It, and less Lady Gaga. So 2011 wins.

If you don't like a single Frank Ocean song, you have no soul.

2010 had Fuck You so it pretty much wins. It would take a lot for someone to beat that.

I forgot. Less Lady Gaga then, not like 2010. And Born This Way is actully good. The other singles, though... *shudders*

Born This Way was probably one of the most overhyped albums ever. They were advertising it months in advance and no album that isn't Thriller or Sgt. Pepper deserves that kind of hype.

>typical pop album exposure

>claim overhype

I'll be honest, I was completely underwhelmed due to the hype too. Though also because they claimed there would be a lot more rock influence and I found most of it to be more Eurobeat than anything. (Not to say I didn't like the whole album—I liked plenty of songs from it.)

What was the impact of the amazon 99-cent promotion?

I'd guess it caused more units to be sold?

2011 had We Found Love and Super Bass so I'll put it ahead, 2010 only had Teenage Dream.

I'm definitely forgetting things, though.

I think more Lady Gaga is a good thing, though, Judas and Marry the Night are kickass songs.

[up]I dunno, "Judas" is my least favorite song of hers. Especially since it just seems like "Bad Romance" rehashed with religious symbolism.

At least both 2010 and 2011 were better than 2012.

Seriously, were any good songs released that year?

[up]Well, the the other day I made a pretty kickass cover of "Nowhere Man". That counts, right?
