1 OWL CITY / FIREFLIES
- Did Sarah Bareilles and Colbie Callait merge into one entity and change genders?
2 JAY-Z FEAT ALICIA KEYS / EMPIRE STATE OF MIND
- If people could stop listening to silly songs about insects, Jay could finally land his first #1 song on the Hot 100. The man's 40; come on, America, give Jigga an early X-mas present.
3 JASON DERULO / WHATCHA SAY
- Even T-Pain is ruing the day that he unleashed the autotune monster on the world at this point.
4 IYAZ / REPLAY
- Hold up, isn't this song by Jason DeRulo too? What's Iyaz, his alter ego? You can't fool me.
5 JAY SEAN FEAT LIL WAYNE / DOWN
- Interesting, all the boys are on top and the girls are on the bottom....and four out of the five men in the top five are brown. Minority men are making progress.
6 MILEY CYRUS / PARTY IN THE USA
- Only an idiot, like Miley Cyrus, would croak about getting hyped for a Jay-Z song being on and then admit that she's "never heard a Jay-Z song" before. We've gotta stop pulling these kids out of school.
7 LADY GAGA / PAPARAZZI
- The "purple teardrops I cry" line, is that a reference to Prince's "Purple Rain"?
8 BRITNEY SPEARS / 3
- This song wore out its welcome faster than K-Fed in the music industry.
9 RIHANNA / RUSSIAN ROULETTE
- Poker Face, Russian Roulette, what's with all the gambling ladies?
10 BEYONCE / SWEET DREAMS
- Beautiful nightmares sound like more fun than sweet dreams.
