So the clock just struck 3 a.m. on a Saturday night. Chances are if you are still awake you are probably a little more than tipsy. The time for pretense and everybody fighting over the ipod dock to play the hottest unheard of tracks is over. Now is the time for nostalgia and for everyone at the party to sing along with the chorus and mumble through the verses. So here we have a list of 30 songs that are undeniably catchy and will crack a smile on even the most curmudgeonly of party goers. While many of these tracks are unbearable with a sober mind there is something about surrounding yourself with a group of friends and passing around the last beer in fridge that makes these tracks infectious at 3 in the morning.
