Work is a great pop song and I'll gladly dance horribly to it anytime it comes on. And what she's doing is called patois and is how they speak in a distinct part of the world.

Poptimism at its worst that you guys are kicking around the merits of Work in a yearly best of thread. These threads used to be interesting. Now they're just mostly lazy.

No offense verb but if KD is on the other side of a musical discussion you're probably wrong

His list sucks. Zero Diversity. I like all those songs with the exception of Work, which may be fine for a pop song, but is laughable as part of a yearly best of list not submitted by the 19 year old girl piercing ears at Claire's.

Come on, it has a little Diversity, unless you hear some similarities between RiRi and Lenny that I'm not picking up on. That said, though, the purpose of my list was to name the five songs I liked best this year, not to show off how many different kinds of music I listen to. And pop songs topping year-end critics' polls is nothing new: http://www.robertchristgau.com/xg/pnj/
(the Village Voice's Pazz and Jop "critics' poll" for years summarized the top end-of-year picks from critics nationwide, none of whom I believe worked at Claire's, and only in very few instances was the no. 1 song not a mega-hit)
