i put this in my “watch later” in 2016, and i’m watching it in 2019, honestly master of procrastination.

These mashups are like wine. The older they get, the better they become coming back to it.

i think we're all sad to se the years go by so quickly, our years of music slowly drop away, while newer albums and artists take their place. I personally like these because it brings back those days, where we all just sat and listened, and some made us get up and dance, it truly made us feel alive. So through the years, I think its safe to say that I enjoy this, and hope that through different styles of music, different opinions of what sounds good, they stay alive within us. We'll keep the art of music alive, while keeping older styles great in our memories.

Mr.earworm, you have a rare gift. Please, never stop making these. it's sort of become the highlight of my year, listening to the uspop. if the quality has gone down over the years, it's because music now days just isn't as good as it used to be. Love your work

I been waiting like forever for this

2016 was a good year for music but a terrible year for the world

One day, we'll look back on this and say we missed it and wished it was like this again.

KZfaq Rewind made the mistake of not hiring DJ Earworm for their 2017 rewind

The best mashup since 2009. Its been a kind of disappointing year for pop music but this really makes 2016 shine.

Nothing beats Blame it on the Pop, 2009. And nothing ever will.

nothing can ever top the 2009 one

"The whole year put you in the worst mood" THAT WORKED TOO PERFECTLY

Nothing will ever be as good as the 2009 mashup but maybe that's the nostalgia talking.

Everyone that comes here in December every year to hear the latest mashup can always agree 2009 was the best.

2009 Blame it on the pop is still the best

No mashup is ever going to be as good as 2008 & 2009. :(

Still can't beat 2009...

I don't know why everyone's not Liking this year one.. I like them all every year I always wait for it come out and I would listen to it over and over again....

The 2009 mashup is still the best by a longshot.

This one's better than 2017, in my opinion. 2017 was very mundane. All the contributing songs sounded all like variants of the same thing and thus yielded a flat and boing result. But hey, I guess I'm just an old man that thinks most chart toppers sound the same. This 2016 mix might be in my personal top 4.

Yeah... nothing will ever beat Blame it on the Pop

2009 mashup was still the best!!

If something happened to Dj earworm I'd literally cry ='( This remixes make me so happy! Thank yooouuuu!!!!

2009 GOLDEN YEAR......

United States of Pop 2009 will still always be #1 in my book

only dj earworm can make 2016 music seem good

Funny how in 2016 we thought life sucked now we miss 2016

the mashup of 2009 is the best so far!

better than KZfaq rewind tbh

It's sad that Pop Danthology couldn't come this year... but at least we got DJ Earworm! :)

0:47 what a welcoming to the 2016 mashup

OH MY GOD TWENTY ONE PILOTS MADE IT INTO A DJ EARWORM MASHUP WITH 3 SONGS

Is it bad that I don't know any of the songs that were used? lol... 2016.. where have I been?

Your whole year, put you in a worst mood ah It's hard sometimes, it hurt you ah Oh yeah the song, If you really listen Oh yeah the song, gets a new edition Cause we all get lost sometimes you know, Through the darkest of days; It's how we learn and how we grow, Driving through the heartbreak away Ooh, I think I'm losing my mind now, yeah! You shouldn't be fighting on your own.. So we'll piss off the neighbors! (Ohh) Baby take control now, Play that music too loud (Ooh, Ah-Ahh!) Reckless behavior! (Ooh, ooh) Don't need no reason.. Welcome to my house, Welcome to my city, Welcome to my home I'll make it feel like the good old days, When we're in our zone Welcome to my nation Your dreams, adoration still holdin' on to something, inside my bones I had to bust up the silence (RRRAHH!) Cut that into pieces, all that I'm wishing for my friends (RRAH!) Watch me break it into pieces (Can't stop the feeling!) Im fallin' into pieces (I-I-I can't stop!) What can I say? That's the way it was (Hey, aye) That's the way it was I'm beyond! Where do you wanna go? (Don't need control) That's the way it was (Hey, aye) That's the way it was I'm beyond! Make you lose control La la la la la la~ This is what you came for, Ooh, it's something magical (Magic in the air!) La la la la la la~ This is what you came for La la la la la la~ (I love cheap thrills!) So we'll piss off the neighbors! (Ohh) Baby take control now, Play that music too loud (Ooh, Ah-Ahh!) Reckless behavior! (Ooh, ooh) Don't need no reason.. Welcome to my house, welcome to my house! It was a big, big world; Cut that into pieces I always had that dream; Cut that into pieces (Can't stop the feeling!) I'm fallin' into pieces (I-I-I can't stop! RRRAHH!) All I know, I-I-I can't stop Darlin' all I know, I-I-I can't stop! Look what you've done! (Oh, oh) I need a miracle Ohh, it's something magical (Oohh Ah-Ah!) (Oh, oh) I need a miracle Get me close to God, I pray Welcome to my enemy! You might be one of us Welcome to my prisoners! Outside ready to bust.. Oh I cut 'em all loose and then were free! Please don't make sudden moves (nah, nah, nah) Look out! (Oohh, nah, nah, nah) I Can't stop the light and dark! You don't know the abuse (nah, nah, nah) But now we're stressed out! All I know, I-I-I can't stop (Cut that into pieces) Cut that into pieces All I know, I-I-I can't stop! (Cut that into pieces) Wooh! So we'll piss off the neighbors! (Ohh) Baby take control now, Play that music too loud (Ooh, Ah-Ahh!) Reckless behavior! (Ooh, ooh) Don't need no reason Welcome to my house... Darlin all I know... I-I-I can't stop!

I’m starting to worry DJ Earworm! I’ve been checking every hour and 2017 isn’t out yet!

2009 still tops all of the mashups

Every December: Watch new Dj Earworm mashup, then go and listen to 2009 on repeat

These mashups really do make you want to go back to that year

In 2020 you should make a mashup of the last 20 years

2009 still the best..

some serious questions for dj earworm. do these just feel like a chore now? I can imagine you making your earlier Mashup's (which are great by the way) and actually loving them and having a lot of fun. Hearing comments like "this was better last year" and such makes you wonder what it's all for? a couple of extra dollars around the holidays? is the earworm passion gone? is the available selection of music getting worse as the years go by? and finally.... what if you stopped making them? would your adoring fans abandon you? possibly even hate on you for something that used to be fun? either way. we love what you do and have been following since the beginning. Just can't imagine what you go through to put these together. good work again in 2016.

I miss 2016 so much

This dude should've made music for KZfaq Rewind!

2009 still unbeatable

I like how tyler and josh are just everywhere

Who's listening in 2017 Yesss boys

twenty one pilots having three of the top 25 songs this year was so iconic. Good year for them damn.

United State of Pop 2009 is still the best.

2009 still can't be topped

2016: 2016 Songs is Sucks 2021: I miss songs of 2016

This mashup means so much to me. I miss the old times.

Lets pray for a better music year for 2017

Nothing will beat 2009

I always get excited at the end of the year because of dj earworm. I can't wait for 2017 already LOL

09 is still the best of all time.

This shit better be in youtube rewind.

No mashup can ever beat the 2009 one.. :/

Whether or not you liked the music of that year (and trust me, I don't like 90% of it in any year), you have to say, these mashups are great because of the nostalgia they carry! Those songs take you right back to your memories, ones you had maybe forgotten about completely. Thanks for your hard work in making these, hat off to you :)

I love listening to these mixes every new year, it's a ritual. Never feel discouraged by all the people complaining about this being worse than the other years! Thank you, always love these in their own ways.

Nothing like DJEarworm 2009

For people complaining about music choices, read the description. "A mashup of the most popular U.S hits of 2016". He gets the top 25 songs from Billboard.

While waiting for the 2017, let's go back and listen to 2009, probably the best one yet!

2009 mashup is still the best

Very nice, DJ. A lot of people are giving you flak because they aren't fans of the songs themselves, but you mashed them together very well. It encompasses the spirit of each song, and has a nice catchy feel to it. I've been a fan for 6 years and I am never dissapointed, keep up the great work :)

2014 will forever be the best

2008 and 2009 are still the best. Nostalgia ftw lol

the bit where the person says "what can I say" I always thought WHAT CAN I SAY EXCEPT YOUR WELCOME!!!

Steps of a United States of Pop: First couple weeks: "Why isn't this song/artist in this? They should be in this" A couple months: "This is the worst one. Music has gone to shit" In like October of next year: "it pretty good, but 2009 was better" When the next United States of Pop comes out: "omg this one is so much better that the new one" About 1-2 years after: "omg this was when music was good. New music is so bad"

2009 is still my favorite.

i knew coming back to this after 1 month was a good idea....only worth listening to with headphones on...sounds way better. you can catch all the lil details in the mixing...the track is awesome!!

Nothing beats 2009 & 2010, that sounded like a real song. Make more of those mixes ups

2009 still the best.

I can’t wait for the 2017 mash up. It’ll probably be out next week.

9th December and still counting 💕

2009 was the BEST!

i wait for these every year tbh

Who is still waiting for 2017 version??

2009 was the shit omfg. Best year for pop music lmao

So fire

This and rewind are what I live for in December

Nothing can top 2009 mashup.

Everyone saying "No beat!" or "dissapointing!"... It is the quality of the music that is bad, not the mashup. This is my 2nd fav one. First is 2014.

Thank you :).... been listening to you since 2009

this one isn't bad, nothing can beat his 2009 one

This is the first time Taylor isn't here! HAaa!! I can breathe now :)

At least this one was more upbeat than the ones in years past. I kinda like it. 2012 is still my favorite one.

This was great but i honestly don't think anything can top 2009's mashup 😍

There's too much Starboy

Why is everyone so depressed? Honestly everyone's just complaining about how every year we get worse and worse. Like no one cares. We need to focus on all of the great music that came out this year. Stop looking at all the downsides of everything and realize how lucky we are to live in America and just be alive at all

2009 is still my fav....

If they had a KZfaq rewind for music, they should definitely ask this dude! These mashups are amazing!!

2009 is still the best ♡

Considering how depressing 2016 music was, I think this is pretty freakin' great

Ariana Grande practically owned 2016 and I'm disappointed not even hear a short sample of Dangerous Woman, Into You, or even Side to Side. :/ Meghan Trainor's "No" was a personal car dance contest I won't forget and should have made it in my eyes. Shawn Mendes also really progressed this year. Can't get "Mercy" out of my head. Not a great mix, but still pretty good. Glad you take the time to do all of this. Thank you!

What sets apart DJ Earworm from his mashup peers is his hooky style: He makes the finished product sound like one cohesive song, rather than a mashup with many styles and parts. Awesome chill vibe in this one, props to him 😃

still never as good as your 2009 mashup.

1:09 Song: "I'm falling" Video: Guy falling off a building I died xD

Waiting for 2017 to drop
