The last few months I have been listening to [this album](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMgGiZM_Smg). Over, and over, and over. I think I’ve played it at least 500 times. And I hear something new every time I listen to it. I think I am obsessed with it. ---

So many Ke$ha songs to choose from…I’ll just go with the one that everybody knows (including 85-year-old grandmothers living in isolated tribes in the Amazon forest): TiK ToK.
