But Earworm also replaces F**kin’ Perfect, How To Love and Look At Me Now with Til The World Ends, We Found Love and Good Life, which is a trade-off I can totally get behind.

This mashup is different from his previous works in a few ways it’s doesn’t follow the top 25 of the year-end list, presumably because of Just The Way You Are charting again.

The “burn burn burn” build-up (2:22 – 2:51) may be the most intense thing Earworm has ever created, followed by an explosion of pure joy from the Born This Way instrumental, which carries the rest of the track. The use of Til The World Ends and Born This Way give it an epic, larger-than-life feeling. This instrumental is simpler this time around, at least in comparison to 20’s mashups. The sound of popular music just kept getting bigger and bigger, until it sounded absolutely gigantic, and that’s how we got here. In 2011, the club boom of 2009 was starting to finally collapse in on itself. Overall, I think what I love the most about this mashup is just the apocalyptic feel of it all it’s like Earworm heard Til The World Ends and just decided to base the entire mashup out of that theme. This mashup captures 2011 very well, the collective fear of the world ending in 2012, the party boom and subsequent collapse, the massive presence Katy, Bruno, and Rihanna had that year (seriously they were absolutely massive), how big the songs sounded, everything that was 2011.Ī fun fact to start off with: Bruno Mars sings the final lyric in 2010’s mashup (“Cause you’re amazing just the way you are”) and sings the first lyric in 2011’s mashup (“Take, take it all”). This was actually the first one I saw when it was brand-new, so I was super hyped. This mashup as a whole is still really fantastic, not as good as 2009 or 2010, but those are hard years to beat. As a bonus I am able to spend more time on the mixes and more fully realize them.' What do I think? I think it was bound to happen at some point, and it definitely would've happen later on as streaming changed the actual chart placement and what is and isn't bigger, and this rule definitely comes to bite him later on, but it works so well this year that it actually makes it better than what it would've been. For instance, 'We Found Love', which has been #1 for the last 8 weeks of the year, is nowhere to be seen in Billboard's Top 25, and may not make it next year either due to the bias of the cut-off date. From my perspective, a song for a year-end mix belongs in the year it will be remembered from, not the year it ended its run. I also don't want a track appearing two years in a row just because it happened to be peaking right at the cutoff. Because of the Billboard's early cut off date and their emphasis on chart longevity, songs that are released after August are either split between the two years or moved to the next year. year-end list, since I'm basing it off of the weekly lists this year in order to more reflect what was actually popular during 2011. Earworm comments on this saying: 'It doesn't match Billboard's U.S. And the whistling before the final chorus is just cool.Īn important thing to note here: this is the first mashup to include songs that were not in the top 25 of Billboard's Year-End Chart. (see 2:50-2:55) All the explosions, fires, world endings, not caring, booms! It's all so 'bigger than life' and it totally fits with the year. There's a lot of good lyrics here with the beginning where they want everything 'taken', the credit cards, house, the car, the change in their pockets, (see: 0:11-0:32) The callback to 2009. The chorus alone shows that, with the different 'booms' (thanks to Katy, Nicki, and AdamMaroon 5) and Britney, Katy, and Rihanna are letting it happen. The lyrics here, as a whole, are centered around a specific theme: The world is gonna end, so let's just party. Here's an instrumental that was made, I'd recommend it. And i'm not sure if this counts as a lyric or not, but the whistles from Moves Like Jagger, Pumped Up Kicks, and Good Life are found here as well. It's built around We Found Love, Till the World Ends, Last Friday Night, and Born this Way. This mashup is more simple than last year's. Ne-Yo, Nayer, & Afrojack - Give Me Everything Lauren Bennett & GoonRock - Party Rock Anthem Katy Perry - Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.) The songs he used in this one are:Įnrique Iglesias ft. Today we will be looking at his 2011 mashup, United State of Pop 2011 (World Go Boom).

This will be his tenth year in a row creating the mashups in this series and I would like to celebrate them! This is the first part in a ten-part series where we look at DJ Earworm’s United State of Pop mashups. Hello r/popheads! I'm /u/Nerdy_boy_chris, and I wanted to pay tribute to the person who basically introduced me to both popular music and the Billboard charts, DJ Earworm.
