#32 – “On The Floor” by Jennifer Lopez feat. Pitbull: The Top 50 Songs of 2011 (I Heard)

What in the world does a 41-year-old (at the time and near death bed for pop stars) have to do to get a hit song when she hasn’t had a legitimate one since 2005? As heard in “On The Floor”, all she needed to do was have someone adapt the pan flute part of the 1982 Bolivian folk song “Llorando Se Fue” from Los Kjarkas into a dance single while listing random places like Brazil, Morocco, London, Ibiza, L.A., New York, Vegas, and Africa. Getting Lady GaGa producer RedOne and Pitbull (who just so happens to appear on every hit song saying “¡Dale!” these days) certainly helps as well. Side note – How the hell does this music video have 447 million hits?
