    if you made it through the entire song i believe you deserve a prize, and that prize is that your all slightly more stupid.


    But seriously, discuss here how far our culture has fallen that SHE is a top hit?

    Haha, nicely done.

    Okay, she is a top hit but not because it is the 'greatest song of our generation'. Did any credible person write that down?

    She is a top hit because of how bad she is. She became viral because of the many, many bad review she has received and I think is the epitome of "So bad, it's good". It's not good in any form, but hilarious how bad it is.

    Really dochak? Even considering how much money can be made from having over 77 million views and the ad-views that come with it on your youtube page? On top of the iTunes sales?

    Somehow I just knew what the song was going be from reading the title.

    That video is a car crash... so horrible, but I can't look away. Eventually it just becomes so obnoxious that I have to close it, though, and I haven't been able to make it through the entire thing (knock on wood). And it's not even just the stupid lyrics, her singing voice alone makes me cringe. Although it probably doesn't help that everything is all auto-tuned to hell, which unfortunately seems to be the fad these days. It's not so much about talent anymore... obviously.

    All that aside, I must admit that I woke up with this unbelievable freakin' earworm of a song stuck in my head this morning... but only because of this version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VU1v_XKgEPc :lol:

    Haha, thanks. I laughed SO hard when I saw that video the first time... It just gets progressively more ridiculous as it goes on. Definitely one of my new, "I'm in a crap mood so let's watch this because it makes me smile" videos.

    And... is it just me, or has the Tube blocked it within the past hour?

    4chan did it.
    I'm proud to say I'm one of the (relative) few who saw this video when it was under 10k views lmfao.

    HOWEVER. I think that this song has a little something on Rebecca Black. She's got competition.

    That song was like a train wreck... Couldn't look away. I like one of the comments on the video though. "Sadam ✓ Osama ✓Chávez☐ Justin Bieber☐ Rebecca Black☐ ..."

    I don't like the song, personally, but I respect Rebecca Black for being willing to put up with all the criticism she got for it. She's just a kid, really, and it takes a lot of guts to record a song and put it on the internet. I hope she becomes really successful and proves herself to all the people making fun of her.

    It's a pretty awful song, though.

    The music culture has fallen since 90's and the grunge on MTV. That killed everything.
