2011 music scene was very exciting in terms of album releases. We had a variety of hit songs to choose from for our Top Ten Songs of 2011. We saw releases from Drake, Wale, Kanye West, Jay-Z, Adele and many more great artists. Some people believe that the music of our generation has been declining but with the new collaborations, and the new emergence of indie and dubstep genres, this generation of music is slowly coming back to where it should be.
Some of the greatest aspects of today's music is its unique style. We can look at Kanye West and Jay-Z's Watch the Throne album to see the amount of time and effort that was put into each song. We can look at Adele who shows her true passion and love for music in her song "Someone Like You." 2011 also showed a song where everyone knew the words to and made them want to shuffle every second of the day, "Party Rock Anthem" by LMFAO. Choosing the Top Ten Songs of 2011 was a daunting task. So with that being said, here is the criteria that we used to make this Top Ten Songs of 2011 list:

This comes from Minaj's album titled, Pink Friday. With the amount of hits she has been putting out this year, this song is the most memorable.

This single by Adele is simply amazing. Her vocals are incredible. This is the song that everyone wants to belt out the chorus, " Nevermind, I'll find someone like you!"

How can we go through this countdown without a hit song from Katy Perry? When this song came out was very popular and top the Itunes download when it first came out. The song is very catchy and people see the selves singing along whenever the song comes on the radio.

I was glad to finally see a great Indie song hit the charts in 2011. I really love the chorus in this song that goes, "All the other kids with the pumped up kicks,You better run, better run, outrun my gun." Hopefully this is a start to a new saga of great indie music to take the music scene.
1. Party Rock Anthem - LMFAO This song by LMFAO is clearly the number one part song of 2011. It makes people shuffle, sing along, and just straight up dance. It is basically the anthem to live free and cherish the moment of 2011.
