Just throwing in some good Friday-songs to decontaminate everybody’s ears:
Oh my god, I’m dying at my desk. I’ve been annoying Facebook all day with Friday quotes and links. This one is going on there.
There is no defense of this song, the video, or the lyrics, that is legitimate. None. If you managed to withstand the brain rot long enough to get to the part where she teaches us about the days of the week (and I applaud you, it honestly took me three tries), then you saw firsthand why it’s the lyrical work of first graders.
I’m sorry this could be because I grew up singing, dancing, and acting and I have no patience whatsoever for famous people who SUCK but in my opinion if you’re going to be famous you have to be good at something other than sucking. Unless of course you are a porn star and then that’s a different story. There are hundreds, maybe thousands, of talented or at least cute young performers out there who deserve a chance and this kid with no talent at all is famous? AHHH!! That’s why I hate it. Not her, she’s just a kid, I hate the video and the song that was made for her.
Plus I hate that everyone keeps saying she can’t sing.
Confused?
Let me clarify.
SHE’S NOT SINGING!! SHE’S SPEAKING IN RHYTHM IN A MONOTONE VOICE!!:smack:
I refuse to reward this or accowledge it as anything other than crap.
A previous poster mentioned a song called Butterflies that was done by the same company and is quite sweet.
The difference is that the singer of Butterflies sings and not all that badly. She has a little acting ability or at least enough to imbue some emotion into what she’s saying and to the person watching the video.
Jesus christ, way to be over the top. It’s a vanity video that parents had made for their 13-year-old daughter. Come on, what 13-year-old doesn’t want to be the star of her own music video?
The song is absolutely terrible, of course, but to go on about how this is a symbol of how awful pop music today is and how there’s “no defense” is absurd.
She’s THIRTEEN. No one involved ever expected this to become an internet meme. Christ.
This had me rolling on the floor. “Pleasant Nazis” … ha!
What does that even mean?
Love that!
“My hand is a dolphin!”
He’s in the video but doesn’t share any scenes with anyone else. I think Katy Perry/Snoop Dogg is arecent example.
That guy is doing what is, without question, the worst Christopher Walken impression of all time. I could only figure out it WAS a Walken impression by reading the video summary.

Actually, that’s exactly what they wanted, I suspect. They just wanted it to be a positive Internet meme.
I keep mis-reading the thread title and thinking someone named Vanessa or Rebecca has done a cover of ‘Black Friday’ - a much better song.
I already discussed this to death on Facebook last week, but I will reiterate my two big issues with this video:
-
If that driver is old enough to legally have a license, he wouldn’t be CAUGHT DEAD driving around 13 year olds, especially not to school where he would be seen!
-
Is anyone else disturbed by the fact that the interlude is by a guy who’s on the far side of 40 rapping about he gets excited when he sees a school bus?
Ladies and Gentlemen, that would be Hello Goodbye whose lyrics are exceptionally stupid and banal, which has no musical or peformance value whatsoever, and was made late enough in their careers that they had no good excuse.
Out At Home webcomic filler strip because the artist didn’t have time to make a regular strip.
Now this is promising.
That is the funniest shit I’ve read on the Internet in a very long time 
Nah, they did have a scene together in California Girls. Snoop Dogg and his Gummi Bears face off against Katy and her girls, and Katy goes whipped cream akimbo on the Gummi Bears.
It’s really a bizarre music video once you try to describe it.
For her follow-up single, I hear she’s remaking “Sandcastles in the Sand.”
Should be legendary.
Within the vast Robin Sparkles discography, I think I prefer Let’s go to the Mall.
