Hi all, I'm asking for your help! My friend is having a barbecue and has asked me to make a CD for the event with the incentive that I still follow pop music as profusely I did in high school. She asked for "party music" that is "pop" but "not too popular". Don't feel too confined by this though. I think any hip or just cool in general would work as well.
Go along the lines of what I already have if you're going to help!
Heavy Metal Lover - Gaga
Jump - Rihanna
Legendary Lovers - Katy
Lovin' It - Ariana
XO - Bey
Birthday - Katy
You'll Never Know - Ariana
**** Like You - Pink
Do My Thing - Miley
Nobody's Business - Rihanna
Walking on Air - Katy
Double Bubble Trouble - M.I.A.
Beautiful Dirty Rich - Gaga
Some Unholy War - Amy
I have a feeling the last two don't fit in but they're too cool to leave out...
Also, for some reason the appearance of an artist more than twice is bugging me, should it?
Note: The party will be filled with snobby classical music students
