I am not that cool, so I'm not the best person to answer this.
Here's my short answer, FWIW:
* PSY: Gangnam Style
* Carly Rae Jepsen: "Call me Maybe"
Man, I need to buy a radio or something.
What songs epitomize 2012 to you?

@mrbee: I don't listen to the radio either, but I agree with both of your song choices.
I think not listening to the radio is a good gauge of choosing songs because those two songs infiltrated pop culture beyond the radio.
I would also add Kelly Clarkson's "Stronger" and LMFAO's sexy song. Those two I heard A LOT.

I listen to the radio every morning on the way to work.
Although the same station. I have to agree with your selection
100%.
Can't escape either song!

It's hard to say because those songs (especially Psy) are everywhere now, but the year's almost over - there are a bunch from earlier in the year that were just as big. I think Call Me Maybe is definitely one of the biggest of the year, and also Somebody That I Used to Know by Gotye, We Are Young by Fun and We Found Love by Rihanna. And probably something by Taylor Swift, but I don't know the names of her songs, haha.

@Shutterbug: I loooove that Goyte song! But wasn't that last summer?

@Shutterbug: Taylor Swift's never ever ever getting back together song seems to be everywhere now. I don't like her but her songs always get stuck in my head.

@mrbee: well yes (in NZ), but it wasn't popular here until this past winter/spring. Love that song. Here's the funny SNL skit from April: http://vimeo.com/40518026

I second that Gotye song - I know it was huge in late winter/early spring bc it was all over the radio on our drive from PA to VT for St. Patty's Day weekend.
Other than that I don't really listen to pop radio. I have the musical taste of a 50 year old pothead.
