Another year has come and gone but what we have left is the music; songs that inspired and some that were just plain. dumb fun.
I have already shared some of my personal favorites throughout the year, so here are the rest of the best:
Carly Rae Jepsen - "Call Me Maybe" from "Kiss"
Goyte featuring Kimbra - "Somebody That I Used To Know" from "Making Mirrors"
Chris Brown - "Turn Up The Music" from "Fortune"
Chris Brown - "Don't Wake Me Up" from "Fortune"
Marina & The Diamonds - "How To Be A Heartbreaker" from "Electra Heart"
Lana Del Rey - "Ride" from "Paradise" EP
Icona Pop - "I Love It" from "Iconic" EP
Alex Clare - "Too Close" from "The Lateness Of The Hour"
Scissor Sisters - "Let's Have A Kiki" from "Magic Hour"
Sky Ferreira - "Everything Is Embarrassing" from "Ghost" EP
Angie Stone - "Backup Plan" from "Rich Girl"
Diplo Featuring Nicky Da B - "Express Yourself" from "ExpressYourself" EP
Jessie Ware - "Sweet Talk" from "Devotion"
Miguel - "Adorn" from "Kaleidoscope Dream"
David Guetta featuring Sia - "Titanium" from "Nothing But The Beat"
Finally, I know this is old but I'm always late to the game. Enjoy Duck Sauce's "aNYway" that perfectly spoofs "The Midnight Special' and the soul groups of the 70's. I just love this song and video:

MEET KIMBRA
Most American audiences have recently become aware of pop singer, Kimbra due to her part on Gotye's hit song, "Somebody That I Used To Know" but she is not exactly brand new artist.
The twenty-two year old New Zealand native burst on to the scene last year with her debut album, "Vows" that became a major hit in her home country and Australia with three singles making it on to the Australian Top 100 Singles chart.
Her quirky but soulful vocals is just what is needed right now in pop music and if there is any justice, Kimbra will become just as big of a success here in America as she is back in her home.
The U.S. release of "Vows" is due on May 22nd and will include a few new tracks on this version. Here is a song that I particularly like:
"Cameo Lover" - Kimbra (2011)
Enjoy the music video for another track, "Settle Down" :
