Summer 2012 Music


It is May, which means that summer is right around the corner... and so is summer music. Last year, LMFAO's "Party Rock Anthem" and Nicki Minaj's "Super Bass" ruled as the summer chart-toppers, though they were expected to hit summer nirvana as early as late April. This year, the song possibilities are less obvious, but Jason Goldberg of the Cornell Daily Sun has made his predictions. His playlist includes current hits like "Titanium" by David Guetta and Sia and "Payphone" by Maroon 5 and Wiz Khalifa, as well as unexpected tracks like "Let it Go" by Dragonette. And he does not forget the yet-to-hit-the-airway singles, like Katy Perry's "Dressin' Up" and "Naked" by DEV and Enrique Iglesias.

So, here are my questions: Will Gotye's "Somebody that I Used to Know" not be super-annoying by summer, even if it is remixed? Can Minaj reign summer-supreme once again with "Pound the Alarm"? Will Ke$ha, infact, make a suprise return to the airwaves this summer in a, "whirlwind of glitter, tequila and body odor"?

I guess we will not know until September comes and we see what songs we are super-sick of from several months of overplayment.
