What kind of music are 12-13 year old into?

DH needs it for bat & bar mitzvah montages. Specific songs would be great. Thanks so much!!

I just bought "The Fray" for my 13yo niece (hit song from there is How to Save a Life). She also likes the Black Eyed Peas.

You asked for specific songs but there are tons of songs by those guys you could use.

Also, I know 13 yr olds that like old music (like 70s, 80s) so don't overlook some classics. The Beatles, The Doors, Desperately seeking susan -era Madonna, etc..
