Now, I prefer the original version with Dave Barnes, but Blake does justice to this song and does a great job. I just loved the song the minute I heard it, give it a listen if you haven't heard it.
This is just me, but Nickelback's always been one of my favorites, despite the fact some people believe it's always the same music with different lyrics (I'm 50/50 on that one). This song is beautiful, a confession to a loved one that tryin' to fake stuff like; Not lovin' them, not needing them, not feeling anything for them, it's not easy at all. Love is so strong that all that's impossible. Give it a listen
The second single from the newbie duo, I LOVE this song, from the second I heard it. I really hope this becomes a hit in 2013, and gives the band success cause it really is catchy as hell.
Up next, a sneak peak at the next selection of songs from the ULTIMATE COUNTDOWN!

Let's ignore the fact that Pitbull comes up with the same lyrics and rap formula about 90% of the time. This song is good, and it's not because of Pitbull. In my opinion he needs to thank both the cool beat of the track, and Shakira's flawless vocals in the song (I mean come on the chorus and the bridge are my favorite parts of the song). Enjoy!
Can we all agree Adele has a really amazing voice, like the emotion she brings is great. With "Skyfall", it's no exception. Sadly in my case, I really didn't feel in touch with the song like I did with any of the songs of "21" & "19", but I'll totally admit this is a great song.
Again, this is just me, but this has to be one of my favorite Madonna songs ever, and I'm not even a Madonna fan (then again, I don't need to be a fan to appreciate good music ) The song kinda has a European/R&B-inspired rhythm to it, and Madonna actually sounds really good from start to finish. I guess that's why she won the Golden Globe for this song.
Shakira's last single (from what I know) from her album "Sale el Sol", this sassy track reminds us why Shakira's known to be one of the main female artists of Latin music. The track is hot and Shakira looks amazing in the music video.
