I have the Ke$ha album and am looking forward to hearing it. There was some really good pop this year. Carly Rae Jepsen's album is great and I easily could've included that in my top 23. And I've never liked anything Taylor Swift has done before, and I think her media persona is absolutely eye-rolling, but half the songs on Red are great pop music.

I was at trivia the other night and we had a series of pictures of children and we had to identify the famous person that they are now are as an adult.  I got them all except the Taylor Swift one.  I said to my teammates I don't even know what Taylor Swift looks like and they said she looks like you. 

So I just looked it up and she is hot.  I was expecting something much worse. I can deal with being a male taylor swift.

The album is really good power pop radio music.  I love it.  I love that Iggy Pop is on it.  It's fun.

Taylor Swift is adorable, but I haven't bought any of her music.

Flag on the play - improper use of the term power pop - The new Shoes record is a perfect example of radio ready power pop, if it were the 70s of course ;)

I was here on the dock waiting for you the whole time.
You forced me into the arms of the ocean.

I like calling it that.  (this made me smile)

Anywho, here are some of my favorite records:

Cloud Nothings - Attack on Memory
Walkmen - Heaven
Jack White - Blunderbuss
Dr. John - Locked Down
Santigold - Master of Make Belive
Metz
Fiona Apple - Long Titile
Cat Power - Sun (although it's the first 1/2 that's the strongest)
Ty Segall - Twins
Ty Segall Band - Slaughterhouse

Cat Power's albums are always above average, however... she ALWAYS has a track or two that just fucking amazing. Love the track Manhattan on Sun, one of those tracks that you can listen to over and over again.

Agreed.  I didn't like her last album, but really listened to Sun a bunch.
