OK! News: Vote for the best couple on TV!
Scarlett and Gunnar sing together for the first time on Nashville
There comes a moment when you're first watching a new TV show and you think, "Oh, snap. They got me. I'm obsessed." For me, it was the very end of the Nashville pilot, when soon-to-be-shagging couple Scarlett and Gunnar sang this smoking-hot song. Whew.
Hannah and Elijah sing along to Icona Pop on Girls
The Icona Pop song "I Don't Care" has officially taken over the charts, but who do we have to thank? Just the drugged-up and semi-naked stars of Girls, who introduced the song in the scene above. Who can't sing along with them by now?

Darren Criss' initial version of this song was a sexy, happy introduction to his character in the second season (not to mention a hugely best-selling single at the time). This rendition showed how much the character's relationship with his love, Kurt, had changed. Darren's voice cracks and his eyes are filled with tears throughout, and oh man. Get the kid an Emmy, okay?
Rayna's daughters sing "Hey Ho" on Nashville.
This song brought newcomers the Lumineers lots of fame and fortune this year, but no offense, guys—you were just blown out of the water by two grade-schoolers. The daughters on Nashville, played by sisters Lennon and Maisy Stella, are pretty much the most talented musicians on the show!
Mariah Carey sings "All I Want for Christmas" on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.
Jimmy Fallon has created tons of magical musical moments on his show (I see you, Justin Timberlake), but given its timing in the holiday season and the presence of the Queen Diva Goddess herself, Mariah Carey, this is our favorite. And with nearly 10 million views on YouTube, we weren't the only ones!
