3. Cee Lo Green, "F**k You (Forget You)," 3,184,000. Cee-Lo co-wrote this rule-breaking smash, which peaked at #2 and won a Grammy for Best Urban/Alternative Performance.

20. Diddy-Dirty Money featuring Skylar Grey, "Coming Home," 1,721,000. This clever, song-referencing song peaked at #11. It's the only song in the top 20 for the year-to-date that failed to make the top 10 on the weekly charts. It was Diddy's highest-charting hit in four years. The song sold an additional 551K copies in 2010. It was that year's #180 song.

Some of that sum came from 2010. Hence its absence. This is 2011 sales only.
