Summer isn’t technically over for a few more weeks, but this weekend marks the symbolic close of the season. Obviously, this means our quest for the 2010 Song of Summer will soon come to an end, with the final round taking place tomorrow afternoon. Hmm, […]

Who Would You Rather?: California Gurls Edition
Despite what our 2010 Song of Summer charts have to say, it’s undeniable that Katy Perry‘s “California Gurls” has taken a place as this year’s official summer anthem. Sure, it’s been played so many times that the singer herself has deemed it “annoying“, but that tends […]
Weekly Top Ten: Katy Makes A Move
Well, it’s official–Lady Gaga is back on top. The “Alejandro” singer has flip-flopped with Kylie Minogue for yet another week, as they both struggle to claim the ultimate title of 2010’s Song of Summer. But neither of these ladies are safe with Katy Perry in […]
Aural Only: Armin van Buuren Vs. Sophie Ellis-Bextor
And now for some total dancefloor candy. We’d love for the rest of the world to share our love for Sophie Ellis-Bextor, but she hasn’t been able to secure an international hit single ever since her Read My Lips days. Hopefully, that will all change with […]
Weekly Top Ten: Gaga Gets Knocked Back
Our quest for the 2010 Song of Summer continues, and it seems that Kylie Minogue might have this contest in the bag. A good portion of her thirteen weeks on our Weekly Top Ten countdown have been spent perched above her competitors. But could another […]

Aural Only: Ke$ha
Here we go again! That skank who calls herself a musician–otherwise known as Ke$ha–has just released the fourth single from her debut album Animal. The song is called “Take It Off”, and the music video basically details a day in the life of Ke$ha (only […]
Weekly Top Ten: Kylie In, Salvatore Out
Some things aren’t meant to last, and it seems that Chris Salvatore‘s “Dirty Love” is one of them. Even though the song managed to take first place on last week’s 2010 Song of Summer countdown, it fell off faster than you can say “Kylie Minogue just […]
Aural Only: Sheryl Crow
What’s an easy way to slip in as a Song of Summer contender? Well, throwing the word “summer” into the title of your song probably can’t hurt. It worked for Kid Rock back in 2008 with “All Summer Long”, and this particular strategy might help […]
Aural Only: Katy Perry
The Wild Card round of our Weekly Top Ten countdown will be back next week. Until then, let’s talk about Katy Perry‘s latest single “Teenage Dream”. Although her last effort “California Gurls” didn’t last long on our charts, it’s still a frontrunner on Billboard‘s Songs […]
