2010 In Mashed Up Pop
Saturday, January 1, 2011 at 09:37PMDJ Earworm released his year-end mash-up containing 2010's Top 25 Billboard songs. With the exception of Train and Lady Antebellum, synth-heavy body-rocking dance pop ruled the charts which one would assume would make for an effortless mash-up. I mean, all the songs sound the same, right? WRONG.
Yes, thick pulsing hooks were the shared foundation and the lyrics made the same demands-- drink your drink, move your feet, and put your hands up-- but Earworm's "Don't Stop the Pop" created more competition than unity. Taio Cruz, Katy Perry, Rihanna, Ke$ha and more are all introduced within 3 seconds of each other. You get a quick hit of 2010 nostalgia that degrades into a sloppy dance floor cat fight with jabs from B.O.B, Bruno Mars, Mike Posner and who ever else staked a claim on Top 40 radio.
I love these songs in their original composition so this isn't a criticism of today's pop music; it's a testament to the difficulties of mash-ups, especially if you have to use certain songs. Even though these songs are similar in structure, musicality, and appeal, DJ Earworm's mash isn't going to break the top ten spot because 
it's not a pop song. There's no build, no climax, no easily recognizable sing-a-long chorus, which are still prevalent in the best mash-ups too . Mash-up artists know you have use different flavors in the mix, let them simmer together, then bring the jam up to a boil and let it rip up the dance floor. DJ Earworm's mash-up is a yearly novelty, but not a defining piece.
and one more thing... Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance" was released in 2009.

I have been taking splenda for several months. Just lately I realized that the moles on arms and especially legs had increased.By a sudden impulse while visiting my doctor for something else I showed the increased moles to him on one leg. He pointed out that two of the moles did not look good, he sent one small part of one of them to the lab and it came back as pre- cancerous. Both moles have been removed since. No more splenda for me. eceaxa eceaxa - manolo blahnik.
