Top Ten Tuesday: Pitbull & Ne-Yo "Time Of Our Lives"

I'm really happy that this song has made the Top Ten. I'm still not completely convinced by Pitbull, but I really like Ne-Yo's hook and I really like this song in general. I think that the video really accentuates the retro feel of the song and, though I hadn't noticed it until watching the video just now, I love the breakdown a lot, too!

Top Ten Tuesday: Pitbull featuring Ke$ha "Timber"

I will readily admit that this song is on here today because it's the only song on the Top Ten that I haven't already featured.

I'm not a huge fan of either artist but I'll concede that the song is pretty catchy. I heard a statistic that this song is like 80% chorus, 15% instrumental, and 5% verses. Which is interesting. It means that the song is catchy because it's basically a chant of the catchy Ke$ha chorus over and over, spiced up with a couple of short verses by Pitbull. And yet she's only a featured artist. Interesting.

This isn't the worst song I've ever heard. I wonder how close to the release and popularity of Avicii's "Wake Me Up" this song was conceived. It could be a coincidence, but I think it's interesting to see another example of the dancification/hiphoptimization of the culture of country music.

Top Ten Tuesday: Pitbull ft. Christina Aguilera "Feel This Moment"

Well, this song is better than I thought it was, but that's not really saying a whole lot.
I think the most fun thing to do when watching this one is to note how many times CA messes with her hair. (SPOILER: It's a lot.)




And now, completely unrelatedly, here's this:
