Since I just keep up on Top 40 pop via Vevo and a couple RYM users' singles ratings, I'll just list my favorites and least favorites of 2012 pop singles:
GOOD
Kitty Pryde: Okay Cupid (dunno if they play this on radio - probably not)
Justin Bieber: Boyfriend (one RYMer called this his "Cry Me a River" and I totally agree)
Lana Del Rey: Whatever singles she's been choosing, since I liked the album
Usher: Climax
Skrillex: Bangarang (perfectly on the cusp of good and bad)
BAD
One Direction: One Thing (disappointing given they had two cool 2011 singles)
Green Day: Oh Love (shoulda stopped with American Idiot, but in three albums, there'll have to be some decent material, I s'pose)
