Aural Only: DJ Earworm

For the past couple of years, DJ Earworm has been concocting a mash-up of Billboard Magazine's 25 most popular songs of the year, and he's done it again for 2009. Now you can relive the best (and worst) hits that dominated the airwaves, and you can do it all in under five minutes.

The obvious culprits are present here–Lady Gaga, The Black Eyed Peas, Taylor Swift, Beyonce and T.I.–but you may be surprised by some of the songs that are thrown in the mix. I often found myself thinking, "Wait, this song came out this year?" Oh, the memories! If you're feeling this mix, head over to DJ Earworm's site to download it.
