Best Weekend Songs
TGIF. (And if it's not yet, just keep your eyes on the prize.)
The weekend! A time for relaxation. A time for contemplation. A time for — err, who are we kidding? TURN UP!!11!
You've been working all week long for this sweet, sweet respite, and you've certainly earned the right to party, let off some steam and pig out on all your favorite indulgences. And to soundtrack that experience, we've put together some of the best songs to celebrate from Friday all the way into Monday morning. (Just make sure to set your alarm.)
From certifiable house party classics (R. Kelly's "Ignition (Remix)," anyone?) to today's hottest new pop bops (Icona Pop's "Weekend" is an anthem like no other), we've got all your ragers and your regret-filled hangovers covered.

Cheers to the freakin' weekend, indeed.

Bit of a throwback. We sure hope they found the party by now.

Were times truly ever good before this?

In Coldplay, we trust.
P!nk, 'Raise Your Glass'
Live out loud. Pink does!
Rebecca Black, 'Friday'
Honestly? It's not even bad.

BEP was bringing the party well before Fergie Ferg joined the club.

Euro dance escapism at its finest.
