My Favorite Songs of 2011: #20 Ke$ha - We R Who We R

I love Ke$ha's music! It's really something you can dance too! Her hit from December last year, We R Who We R is certainly one of my favorite dance hits which kinda spilled over to this year! She did a very good version of it during the AMA Awards.

Your Love Is My Drug by Ke$ha - My #1 Favorite Song of 2010

Oh yeah! No mistake there! This song is my most favorite song of 2010! Tik Tok may be Ke$ha's biggest hit this year, but this was the song that got me dancing everytime - and became my happy song for months! I would literally be jumping dancing to it! It's also special since it's Laura's favorite song - and she would always request it from me, and I would acquiesce to her wishes. We would both be jumping up and down with the song - she on my bed, me on the floor - especially during its bouncy chorus! I even posted "Your love is my drug" on my Facebook status when the song was so special to me! Thanks Ke$ha for all your craziness!
