DJ Earworm's mashup of Billboard's top 25 tunes of 2008—called The United State of Pop 2008—will catch you up on the biggest pop hits of this past year in under five minutes.
Watch the video mashup above or download the 10MB MP3. Earworm says:
This year in the charts, we've gone all soft. The songs are sexy and defiant, less macho than in previous years. Accordingly, I've selected Coldplay as the instrumental track, giving the whole year a sort of symphonic feel. This edit is called "Viva La Pop", and I hope to post more edits soon.
