I’m going to do it with a twist this time, though. Since it’s been so long since I listened to the radio or watched any kind of TV with modern pop-type rhythm music in attendance, I’m sure there’s a lot of stuff out there that I’ve never heard before. So I’m going to completely subjectively go off my gut instincts after no more than 30 seconds of each song. I am also going to use no more than three words to discuss each song. And I’m going to sample 23 songs, just to be completely arbitrary. What could possibly go wrong?

From the top, then — I’m using the UK Top Tracks list in Spotify for this. Here goes nothing.

The Lazy Song – Bruno Mars

Bit Jack Johnson.

Party Rock Anthem – LMFAO

Not rock. Crap.

Give Me Everything – Pitbull feat. Ne-Yo, Afrojack & Nayer
