We've not counted any of your votes, all expert panels have been ignored and the results are in - here is GT's arbitrary list of ten songs that have defined 2011.
Nicola Roberts - Lucky Day

Best lyric: "I may be a senior, so what? I'm still hot."
Lady Gaga - Born This Way
Gay credentials: Gurl, please.
Best lyric: "You're Lebanese, you're orient" (incidentally it feel like this song is about a decade old now, but no. Not even 12 months old)
Robyn - Call Your Girlfriend
Gay credentials: Tireless campaigner and advocate for seemingly easy to replicate dance moves (that look hideous when executed by drunk homosexuals), this year she gave us the floor hump.

Best lyric: "do-da-do-de-do-de-do-doo"
*Runners up / deliberately excluded*: Adele, Katy Perry, Florence and her machine and that Lana Del Rey creature. ENOUGH ALREADY.
