Best Song: Royals by Lorde

is a gift that Apple released today (or yesterday) from that 12 Days app. The deal was you get the gift now and then wait until Dec 26 for 12 days of more gifts. The Royals is actually a video and the song is No Better. Love that song though the video interperts the song a lot differently than I would have imaged it.

I think that apple is planning on giving out apps and games they selected on the best of the iTunes store 2013 on the 12 days of gifts app.
