Want to know what music has everybody singing in the shower and dancing alone in their bedrooms? For only 10 dollars, you too can own the music that the youth of Canada are listening to - today. Artists come and go but it's a pop culture experts job to be well versed in all of them. You can't be seen listening to the wrong Pussycat Dolls song, singing along to Don'tcha! It changes pretty fast, but you can always keep up to date on the biggest hits by checking out iTunes. The iTunes Store keeps a list of its top ten most downloaded songs and it's constantly updated. So what's fashionable in music right now? iTunes gives us this:
1. Womanizer - Britney Spears
2. If I Were a Boy - Beyonce
3. Hot N Cold - Katy Perry
4. Let it Rock - Kevin Rudolf & Lil Wayne
5. So What - Pink
6. Gotta Be Somebody - Nickelback
7. Disturbia - Rihanna
8. Live Your Life - T.I. featuring Rihanna
9. Love Lockdown - Kanye West
10. The End - Andrew F
So there you have it, the most downloaded songs in Canada. Danced to in cars all over the country, though I'd be inclined to throw Nickelback out the window...

Out the window's nothing, Kanye threw his entire next album under the bus when he decided to go with the "vocoder" for the entire damn thing. It's a travesty that people are still listening to his bull**** for name recognition only, because there's no way Love Lockdown actually has the merit in itself to be a top ten song in Canada. Ugh.
On a side note, way to be Britney! We're all proud of you!
We are all proud of Britney...
1) Britney Spears needs to focus less on her music and more on her downward spiral of a personal life.
2) Who knew a song about potential gender reassignment could be so catchy.
3) Katy Perry - We're all happy you followed up your one hit summer wonder with something equally irritating.
4) Lil Wayne needs to find more words that rhyme, so he doesn't keep rapping verses with the same word 38 times.
5) Pink - We get it...you like to go against the grain... start wearing shoes on your head and hats on your feet and be done with it!
6) Nickelback...well....just Nickelback...
7) Why wasn't this song in the D.J Caruso film.
8) Anyone who samples Numa Numa is swell by me.
9) Auto-Tune is a waste of everyone's time...
10) Am I the only one who wasn't aware this was a song?
