P!nk's second single from her #1 album "The Truth About Love" really stands out. "Try" was a grower for me. At first it was just a good song, but then after the video release and her amazing performances I've really changed my mind! "Try" is for sure one of the Best Singles of 2012.

Call Me Maybe Carly Rae Jepsen Kiss Interscope
One of the biggest hits of the year. Carly's "Call Me Maybe", with the catchy lyrics, the funny video and all the buzz she made on the internet really owned 2012. At first I really liked it, then I thought it was silly, then it became my summer jam, now I'm getting a little tired of it... Anyway, I really enjoyed it this year so... it's #19

Happy Pills Norah Jones Little Broken Hearts EMI
I always enjoy Norah's music and this year she really made a huge comeback. "Happy Pills" is an amazing song, I loved it from the very first time and I played it a lot this year. It's jazzy melody is outstanding! Well done Norah!

Begin Again Taylor Swift Red Big Machine
Everytime I listen to "Begin Again" it really brings me back memories. It's a wonderful song talking about moving forward after a bad and unhealthy relationship. Taylor manages to tell her story in an excellant way and make us all feel it... For me the lyrics are fantastic and give substance to the song!

Somebody That I Used To Know Gotye feat. Kimbra Making Mirrors Eleven
Another song that slayed the charts this year. Gotye became famous after "Somebody That I Used To Know" and really became the center of attention in the world of music. The song is really good (not something amazing and out of this world), his voice is unique and its melody is special.
