2011 TOP MUSIC OF THE YEAR

Christmas is almost here and I thought it helpful to assist in ALL your holiday music shopping for 2011. Some songs were released officially in 2010 but they moved me into '11 so what the Heigh?! So many artists, tons of music and the choices are endless once you start listening. Let's dive ears in first! Grab your credit card. TeeHee! 

Rock icon Stevie Nicks turned another stunner with her new album In Your Dreams with favorites: the Fleetwood Mac feeling Wide Sargasso Sea and delicious single Secret Love. We recently saw her at Fantasy Springs Resort Casino over the summer and she entertains every time leaving a part of her on the stage even if it's just a lost bead of piece of lace.

Starting this list of the BEST from '11 is the Lady herself, Lady Gaga delivering us You And I and I must admit this song makes you feel emotions with its crescendos and valleys of depth. I simply LOVE this from Lady Gaga and will not listen otherwise. Her entire album Born This Way - The Collection [2 CD / DVD Combo] is a fabulous stocking stuffers for your little monsters!

Britney Spears is back ruling the musical school! Her new album Femme Fatale spawned many hit singles including Till The World Ends, "Hold It Against Me" and favorite I Wanna Go that is UP! Everyone loves Britney! It's her universe and we simply live to listen and watch what's next from her!

To follow my blog over at iamstevenmichael.com is to also know that I am actually a much younger British tween that wants to cartwheel every time she hears The Saturdays. Dropping this next week my girls of Vanessa, Rochelle, Molly, Una and Frankie have a NEW ALBUM titled On Your Radar and the tracks coming off of it already are delicious from Notorious, "My Heart Takes Over" and "All Fired Up." These ARE my girls!

Glad You Came is from U.K. Boy-Band The Wanted who me hard with new music all year. If you like them cute and young then YouTube their videos. Delicious, and their music is good, too. They're about to break into the U.S. so watch out for them. Both The Wanted and The Saturdays are making their ways into the U.S. so fall in love now and be ahead of the curve!

"Feels so good, being bad. There's no way I'm turning back." Recently named Esquire magazine's "Sexiest Woman Alive" Rihanna has turned it out from radio to dance floors to iPod playlists all year long with the HUGE S and M and California King Bed. From her past music catalogue to even newer tunes that are hitting radio today, Rihanna is here to stay!

Cher hit the big screens this year with Burlesque and her power anthem You Haven't Seen The Last Of Me with the remixes a'plenty! We love The Grand Dame herself and anything she does is the Tea with me. Always Cher. Forever. You will never see the last of her!

The found diva Selena Gomez gave me a video of fiercely windblown hair walking through the desert for her dance hit A Year Without Rain (Dave AudĂ© Club Remix) remixed from her single of the same name. A slow motion diva feeling her moment and you have me staring at the television monitors at the gym daily. She looks amaze and love this song, both versions!

BeyoncĂ© delivered her album 4 (Deluxe Edition) that gave drag queens and wanna-bees the buzz to turn out Run The World (Girls) with the sassy strut that the Lady B delivers in her video. BAM! SHAZAM! My neck hurts after watching it because she throws it down. Her fabulous ballad which I coined as "Irreplaceable 2" Best Thing I Never Had is also a stunner.

Nicole Scherzinger between time between judging both "X Factor" shows turned me out with Don't Hold Your Breath (Kaskade Remix) and "Club Banger Nation." Seems like this Pussycat Doll has finally found her way as a solo artist and I give it to her. She is sickening and have loved her since her starting up in Eden's Crush.

This collection of the BEST MUSIC of 2011 hopefully will help the inner shopper in you figure out that special someone's gift this Christmas and holiday season. Happy Shopping and don't be scare of the dreaded "Black Friday." Shop online! We do... 

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
