What one word could you use to sum up 2011 in pop? According to DJ Earworm, that word is "boom," spoken in songs such as Nicki Minaj's
"Super Bass" and Katy Perry's
"Firework," and evoked in spirit in Britney Spears' cheerfully apocalyptic
"Till The World Ends," amongst others. And as he does
every year, the mashup maestro has taken those songs and many others that made a splash this past year to make a mega-video stuffed with Bruno Mars, Rihanna, Adele, LMFAO, J-Lo, Foster the People, Lady Gaga, and Maroon 5, plus plenty more. Watch the ultimate pop mashup "United State of Pop 2011 (World Go Boom)" below.

As Pink is one of the voice talents in the upcoming animated penguin musical
Happy Feet Two, it makes sense that she would be featured on the movie's soundtrack. What doesn't make sense is that she was given a feel-good, inspirational, sweeping ballad — complete with a backing choir! — called "Bridge Of Light". The treacly song is a departure from the pop star's usual material — we've come to think of Pink as a self-empowered
badass, not a saccharine balladeer — but it once again proves that this woman can
sound amazing singing anything. Listen below.

Sleep No More in New York, though she quickly became part of the evening's entertainment herself — in the 1930s-styled Manderlay Bar, the singer treated patrons to a jazzy rendition of "Summertime". Hop below for more proof that this woman can sing anything, anywhere.
