It's that time of year again, when mashup wizard DJ Earworm wades through the pop music hive mind and stitches the top 25 songs together in one track. This year's installment, "The United State of Pop 2014 (Do What You Wanna Do)," manages to make a cohesive and actually enjoyable tune out of everything from Taylor Swift's "Shake It Off" to Pharrell's "Happy" to Frozen's "Let It Go." Consider this the only time I will enjoy a song that contains samples of Magic!'s "Rude." --Samantha Rollins
