4. Poker Face: In 2008, Lady Gaga landed onto the pop landscape and took over the world with her follow up single to her fresh debut “Just Dance,” the club banger that we all just couldn’t escape: “Poker Face.”

The “Mum-mum-mum-ma” hook of the song made it an instantly catchy fan favourite, followed by the verses and the groundbreaking chorus — and let’s not forget the “bluffin’ with my muffin“ lyric! The song is arguably one of the biggest signature hits from the Pop Queen and has broken countless records, currently being the 6th highest selling digital song in the US. In my country, Austria, the song has spent a total of 12 weeks at #1 and topped the year end charts of 2009.

“Poker Face” is a song that will be remembered for many, many years to come. It’s pop, it’s electronic, it’s futuristic, it’s fashion, it’s New York, it’s Gaga.
