For some crazy reason these four songs came up in the same discussion and got compared to each other.
So here's a poll for it. Pick your favourite.

To begin, IMO, Somebody That I Used To Know is far and above the others, with the exception of WAR. Turn Up The Music, an incoherent mess that I was never a bigger fan of to begin with, was not helped by the sour taste that was left in my mouth by the Rihanna feature. Starships, I will admit, was decent but a very safe choice. I just gave We Are Young a listen and I really enjoyed it and comes as a great second. Thus,
1. Somebody That I Used To Know 2. We Are Young 3. Starships
4. Turn Up The Music

Basically agree with Gravity and Finch. Gotye and Fun.'s songs are just so, so much better. Agree with Gravity's grades above, but I'd bump Starships up to a C-.

I'm not a big fan of "Starships", but I absolutely hate the other three so I voted that by default.

I kinda really like them all.
1. Starships 2. Somebody that I use to know 3. We are young 4. Turn up the music
First 3 I love, and Turn up the music I like a lot, but not as much as the other 3.

Gotye/Kimbra >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> fun./Janelle Monae > Nicki Minaj >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> ;>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Anything by Chris Brown these days... I wish people wouldn't do this. It stretches the page and, regardless, is fucking obnoxious. I agree with the ranking for now, although I'm still not really sure what I think of the Fun song.

Fun is by far my favorite.
Chris Brown on the bottom.
The other two somewhere in the middle.

Nicki > Gotye > fun. > Chris Love Nicki's. Gotye's is alright but growing on me. Sounds pretty good on radio actually :). Only really like the chorus of fun.'s, I quit listening after the first verse was . Chris'... well it's Chris.

1. Starships 2. Turn Up the Music 3. We Are Young 4. Somebody That I Used to Know
It's actually pretty close. They're all good songs. I just like "Starships" best because of its irresistible catchiness.

'Turn Up The Music' is easily the best of these. I love 'Starships', too.

STIUTK - Katy Perry's [uncredited] feature really takes it there, doesn't it? It's the greatest, 'most smartest' performance of her career by and large. Starships - selling out has a ring to it. --- TUTM - for every good record he puts his name to, he submerges that stroke of producer-assisted genius in a sea of shitty singles. Nothing 'genius' about this. N/A fun. (what the fuck kind of name is that?)

I don't get how they're similar except for the fact they're all in the top 10 on iTunes.
Anyway, I voted for "Starships." I also like "We Are Young."
I tried to like the Gotye song, but I can't get into it.
Then there's Chris...
