Why Didn't Jay Sean Made the Title of his song 2011 rather than 2012?

It should have been 2011. He just skipped one year. The song is catchy and would have been perfect for this New Year. =) I would also like to greet to all myLotters a Happy New Year. This the Last day of this year now Make your Wishes. :)

Uhhh, why would it be 2011? 2012 is when the world supposedly ends, and the song is about partying before the end of the world, which is in 2012. But, yeah, I agree that he should've waited and released it in November 2012 or something. Too bad it's not as big a hit as "Down." Happy New Year to you, too.

Yeah, "Down" peaked at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and sold 6 million copies worldwide. "2012 (It Ain't the End)" only reached at #31 on the chart.

I can't say that I am familiar with the song that you are referring to, but I think that perhaps the reason that the song is titled 2012 is because of the entire thought that the world is going to come to an end in 2012, and that is the reason that there is so much hype about it. However, as I said before, I'm not sure what the actual reason for this song is titled the way that it is. However, happy belated New Year to you as well.
