Top 10 Best Songs of 2011

The Top Ten
1 Burning in the Skies - Linkin Park

That's how you call a Linkin Park song! I JUST LOVE IT. It beats all others in here. Linkin Park is a juxtaposition of all the best bands ever and rules the earth. It beats Metallica, Poets of the Fall, Breaking Benjamin, Green Day, and IS A GOD!

Great song of one of the Linkin Park! It's great music with great scream and rap! Linkin Park is the best band ever till the universe's end!

That's a Linkin Park song. It brings the tune of the song from your heart. That is why all others are failures in front of Linkin Park, and among them all, it is the best!

2 Rolling in the Deep - Adele

"Rolling in the Deep" is the best song on this list. The song shows great emotion and should be at #1. According to Billboard, the top music ranking industry in the world, it was "#1 on the Year-End Charts of 2011." TheTopTens.com is wrong, very very wrong.

THE BEST. A song that won the Grammy Award for Best Record is at 12th? You've got to be kidding me. The vocals leave you breathless.

Is this seriously lower than LMFAO's trash? Come on, up to number 1.

3 Someone Like You - Adele

This is the best song of 2011 and one of the best songs of all time, but it is at No. 8. I really don't like this website anymore because, in almost all lists, Linkin Park is ruling, and JB is hated so much.

The greatest song of the last 10 years, and I find it at the 11th position... All the people seem to be deaf...

Fun fact: This is the first number 1 hit that only features vocal and piano.

4 On the Floor - Jennifer Lopez

Before this, I've never been real familiar with Jennifer Lopez or Pitbull. But both of them are awesome in this song, and I just don't know why I like this more than "Give Me Everything," but I just do. This is surprisingly awesome!

Best song ever! It makes me want to dance a lot. Such a legendary song. Still exists. Miss the old days. Nowadays, you can't even feel the taste of modern music. Only some are delicious.

I think this song is quality! It has all the moves, the beats, and all of the talents we need in a song. Simply made and acted.

5 Give Me Everything - Pitbull

Awesome! Best song ever, especially it being Pitbull. Much better than Kanye West. Well, why don't you add Maroon 5's Moves Like Jagger? That is amazing.

Best song ever, and it's the first time I've heard it! It's just too amazing. I bet this is the best song ever because they use such good lyrics.

Absolutely brilliant song as the rapping is sick and a slowed-down chorus is a match made in heaven!

6 So Far Away - Avenged Sevenfold

Amazing song. It should be number 1. This is simply the best Avenged Sevenfold song ever. This song was dedicated to James Owen Sullivan, aka The Rev. We will remember him forever!

Amazing performance.

Music, lyrics, vocals are perfect.

Avenged Sevenfold rocks.

No doubt about a Grammy for Hard Rock Performance.

Makes you weep like a baby. And the solo is heavenly! Just close your eyes while listening to the song, and it all becomes clear!

7 Moves Like Jagger - Maroon 5

This is a great song. It has a good beat. I also like songs that go faster like this one! I also went to Maroon 5's concert. I love their songs a lot. I think this should be at the top of the list. Please vote for this song.

It just ROCKS! I was actually looking for this song in the top ten. I was shocked that it is not there! Please vote for this song, people! Bring it to the top 10!

It is an amazing song. Every time you listen to this song, you will never get bored. It's that nice. Good work, Adam and Maroon 5.

8 I Need a Doctor - Dr. Dre

This song is such a cool collaboration that really works, making this song one of the best songs of the millennium, let alone the century. I'd give it five stars if I was a judge. This song is epic!

No one among the present artists has the quality of Eminem. He is simply the best! I listen to rap only for Eminem.

Great song. Definitely better than that Avril Lavigne stuff that people listen to.

9 E.T. - Katy Perry

This is the best song for 2011. It makes you go for it again. Best song ever. I would always vote it as the best song ever. To date, I have heard this song more than 1000 times.

Would have totally been number one if Kanye West had nothing to do with it. Pitbull and Dre also did some good songs.

So catchy! Literally, the first time I heard this song, I couldn't stop singing it for hours!

10 Hold It Against Me - Britney Spears

WHOA! Blast off song.

This is one of the best songs I have ever heard in years. Of course, there are better songs, but I kinda like this song.

The most inspirational Britney Spears song ever! Get this to number 1!

I love this song! I think it has a good beat, and she sounds lovely.

The Newcomers

? Where the Dead Ships Dwell - In Flames
? Prime Time - Capsule
The Contenders
11 Born This Way - Lady Gaga

I love this song because:

1. It tells you, you are just the way God wanted you to be.
2. This is an anti-bullying song.
3. She wrote it.
4. The music video was very accurate in conveying the message.

And 5.

5. This song is just fun to listen to.

This song shows that you can have a well-thought-out pop song that can give people hope that they are not total losers. She wrote this song, so that adds a bonus to its greatness. Each of her songs has a purpose. Like Poker Face - I haven't found the meaning yet. Anyway, this is a good song. Vote here and tell everybody you know to vote here, even people you don't know!

12 My Heart is Broken - Evanescence

Evanescence is amazing. This song should be higher up!

13 Party Rock Anthem - LMFAO

This music is so addictive! I spent the whole summer saying "Everyday I'm Shuffling!" I don't care if it's commercial. I normally don't listen to this type of song, but this one made me addicted to all of LMFAO's songs and made me become a huge fan of them! They're just so different and funny, just what the music industry needed.

I don't even know what the hell the first song is, but LMFAO has a great song. So, I am happy that it is the second song out of ten. You should all totally comment.

Who cares if it's the popular one? The music is so infectious - everyday I'm shuffling!

14 Set Fire to the Rain - Adele

It is the most beautiful song I have ever heard. Adele sang it very beautifully. What an awesome song it is.

My favorite Adele song of this year.

15 Blow - Ke$ha

I absolutely love this song. I think it is one of her best ever, and definitely the best song on Cannibal!

Why doesn't anyone remember this Ke$ha banger?

16 I Wanna Go - Britney Spears
17 Paradise - Coldplay

This song is just amazing! I listen to it approximately 35 times per day. I just love this song! I mean, what the hell? Number 25! Linkin Park just sings crap, while Coldplay's music can actually be heard, with a nice meaning and tune. Every time I listen to this song, I forget about this world and feel like I am in paradise.

This song is amazing. Great lyrics, beat, vocals, everything is amazing in this song.

This song is the best song by Coldplay. Why isn't this song in the top ten list?

18 Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.) - Katy Perry
19 Somebody that I Used to Know - Gotye
20 Lighters - Bad Meets Evil

Please make this number 1! Most of the music this year has been appalling and this was like a breath of fresh air. Actually quite a lot of good electronic music was released, but that kind of stuff never reaches a mainstream audience. This one manages to keep the classic bad meets evel sound and bring it into 2011!

Best Song of 2011 in my Opinion, and Yeah, Eminem's lyrics is awesome, Please Vote for this song you all. I think it should be Number one Song of 2011. Damn man, it's so awesome I can't stop listening to it, (Right now I am listening to it too) so what chu waiting for please vote for this and listen to it if you haven't done that till now

21 Till the World Ends - Britney Spears

One of the best songs of the year, next to Party Rock Anthem!

22 These Days - Foo Fighters

How are LMFAO and Pitbull higher than Foo Fighters!? This song has exceptional lyrics and vocals, the guitar riff is amazing, and Taylor Hawkins' drumming is amazing as always. Another thing. This song and band stand out from most of the others on this list: it's all legit. No auto-tune, real drums, written by Dave Grohl, not by some random ten people paid to write lyrics that a kindergartener could write. This song isn't farmed out for money. It's great, and everything about it is powerful: the meaning and vocals. This is definitely the best song of 2011, tied with every other song on this album, of course.

23 We Found Love - Rihanna

The song that blew up Calvin Harris and kept Rihanna in stardom.

People, are you serious? 67th? It's the best song ever!

24 N***** In Paris - Jay-Z & Kanye West

The beat, the lines, the baller-ness. If you go by how catchy a song is, this is still ahead of everything else. I get if rap isn't your thing, and if you don't like their excessively baller braggadocio attitudes though (but... ball so hard).

I like Linkin Park and have heard a lot of their music, but there are too many fanboys and fangirls that pick them over everything else no matter what. I will say, Burning In the Skies is my favorite song off that album.

However, you should be judging music on a combination of catchiness, melody, lyrics, message, production, and overall quality of the artist, in no order whatsoever.

Finally, don't put songs on a yearly list when they were released off an album in a different year. That means you're judging the song off of popularity at the point in time, not quality.

25 The Edge of Glory - Lady Gaga

Really a good clean song about her relationship. Also peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard. Plus, the song is great and enjoyable to listen to. It's one of those songs that makes you sing along and dance to.

This song is fun, beautiful, and an awesome song off of an awesome album, Born This Way!
