Everything about this song is pure fun….loved it. Well done Plain White Ts.

Oh, and I’m embarrassed that One Direction is on my list…and nearly in my Top 10? Not at all.

Also, when I look at the Top 50…I notice that Bruno Mars is the predominant artist on the list, and that’s AWESOME. I think a lot of folks are going to be impressed with his Super Bowl show!

AWESOME is as AWESOME does!
