As the year draws to a close, what better way to remember the best pop hits than a medley of songs? Created by Glee singer Sam Tsui and producer Kurt Schneider, this musical mash is a rage on the Internet. Right from Pitbull, Nicky Minaj, and Katy Perry to LMFAO and Lady Gaga, the song has the best pop picks of the year.
Producer Kurt Schneider posted this message, “Hey everyone! Sam [Tsui] and I [Kurt Schneider] put together a medley with a bunch of our favorite songs from this summer. We hope you guys like it!” The viral has garnered a lot of praise from pop music enthusiasts. Having over 53000 likes and being viewed over 4 million times, this medley has been given a thumbs-up to round off the year in a grand musical style. Several music bloggers feel the video has done justice to songs that topped the charts this year. The duo are reportedly filming a movie called College Musical, which is a follow up of the four-part web series going by the same name. The song is one of the top tunes on student Prakriti M's iPod, “It’s a rage for sure! What’s awesome is that the song was available for a free online. Everyone in college is listening to this song.”
The only refrain some have is the duo has missed out a couple of hugely popular songs like Adele’s Rolling in the Deep. Apart from this minor setback, the song is certainly raring to go.
Guitarist Pratik N feels the video does not appeal to all musicians, “There has been no contribution from other genre. It obviously caters more to the pop culture!”
