LMFAO f/ Lauren Bennett & GoonRock - "Party Rock Anthem"

[Live Your Life]

This was the first single from 2011's Sorry for Party Rocking. It peaked at #1 at CHR/Pop, #1 in the UK and #1 on the Hot 100. I can't lie. This was a jam.

[trustypepper]

One of my favorite songs of the decade tbh. Still jam to it whenever I hear it.

The BIGGEST song of the decade, in the future when people think about the 2010's, they'll think about this song. It perfectly represents the early 2010's culture and all the fads at the time.

[Bwol]

JAM

[die Lotterie]

One of my favorite songs from 2011. This really makes me remember how great of a year 2011 was.

[Ｓｏｕｎｄｃｌ🕤ｃｋ]

Really huge song, but IMO it's far from THE BIGGEST HIT OF THE DECADE..there are at least 10 songs that deserves this title.

JAM AF

Despite how incredibly overplayed this was, it really never burned on me. It was never fantastic either, but I can’t say I’ve ever been sick of it, so that probably explains how this became so big haha.

While this song is a total ear worm, I feel like it (as well as LMFAO in general) could have really *only* became as massive as they did in the early 2010s. Very much a product of their time.

[𝓲𝓽'𝓼.𝓰𝓿]

Still a jam.

By pure chart points Party Rock Anthem is the biggest song of the decade.

I know, that's why I said "there are at least 10 songs that deserves this title".

They might deserve it, but LMFAO are the reigning champions of the 2010's.

This baffles me that Adele, Rihanna, Katy Perry, Ariana Grande, Nicki Minaj, Lady Gaga, Kesha, Taylor Swift, Drake, Bruno Mars, or any other huge artist this decade couldn't pull off the biggest hit, a 2-hit wonder "comedy" duo gets that title.

My favorite summer song of this decade.

[Glove Slap]

Loved it then, haven't heard it in some time. Agreed that it's very much a snapshot of life that exact time.

But wouldnt Shape of You have passed it without that recurrent rule that wasnt present in 2011?

[#LisaRinna]

Annoying and overplayed.

[B-Boy]

I haven't used this song since it was out. It was catchy and fun to listen to.

[Deleted]

Iconic but got really annoying real fast. I don't mind it now though.

[g8erboi]

Extremely overrated song. It was fun for a month or two, then it just became a station changer.

[fhas]

Loved this song in 2011 and I may love this even more in 2018. PRA's dance-rap combination is fantastic.

[owenlovesmusic]

Certified diamond.

Probably the only song I really liked from them. What ever happened to those guys??

The duo went on hiatus in 2012 because they wanted to do other projects, and so far they haven't gotten back together.

[leonagwen]

Great song from a summer early this decade.

[Fire]

JAM!!

[♛ The Manticore ☯]

I don't know, I feel indifferent on this. Overplayed back when it was out, the drop got annoying real quick but had a memorable chorus. Haven't heard it in a long time and oddly, I kinda miss it. Just wouldn't mind hearing it once in a blue moon.

#99 on Billboard's 500 Greatest Pop Songs

99. LMFAO feat. Lauren Bennett & GoonRock, "Party Rock Anthem"

Hot 100 Peak: No. 1 (July 16, 2011)

Built on an Australian dance craze (“the shuffle”) and a mission to mint a No. 1 hit, LMFAO’s “Party Rock Anthem” was tailor-made for 2011 pop ubiquity. While it’s hard to imagine anyone pulling off these lyrics quite like LMFAO, the song was originally intended for Flo Rida — but when the singer/rapper passed, Sky Blu and Redfoo kept the pitch song as their own and the rest was history. “Anthem” perfectly married the popular calling cards of its day: the bass drop of EDM, the (almost) cleverness of pop-rap, and a built-in dance craze good enough to rival the Wobble, the Cupid Shuffle” and the Dougie. With all those elements, it’s no wonder the feel-good track ran through the Hot 100 “like Drano,” topping the chart for six consecutive weeks. — KRISTIN ROBINSON

Never knew that this was intended for Flo Rida.
