[This](http://www.youtube.com/watch?annotation_id=annotation_500640&v=w4s6H4ku6ZY&feature=iv)has got to be the worst earworm ever. I can’t get the chorus out of my head. It’s driving me so crazy I feel compelled to spread it around.

I’ve heard that song is really only getting airplay in CA, but I may be wrong. In fairness, that was a few weeks ago, too.

The song sounds like an advertising jingle. I heard parts of it a few times on the radio, but I always changed the station thinking that it was a commercial.

I can confirm, sadly, that the song is getting on the radio in southern Kentucky. I heard it for the first time yesterday.

Great, Hamster. You just made me listen to ten seconds of yet another auto tune song. First the Black Death, then the Nazis and now auto tune. **When will we learn? When?**

It’s a type of Gulfstream jet. The song is basically about sitting in your car getting drunk on cough syrup before going into a dance club.
