Yeah, I don't get it either, I work as an internet radio DJ (on http://gamer.fm if you're curious) and I've had several people literally begging me to play this song. I just don't understand people sometimes.

I couldn't... stop... watching it.... and now I need to go wipe the blood out of my ears.

Wait a moment, how many unique words were there in that song? Maybe 20? I thought we left that style of pop behind us in about 2005, or have I just managed to avoid it since then?

What I heard:

She pitched herself to Ark Music Factory (which I've nothing but bad things about), and they had her sing that song. They then charged the mother $2000 for production and video shooting. They then took it and processed it to freaking DEATH.

Rebbecca herself is waiting for the day when the whole thing blows over and she can try again with something less terrible, but has to ride the fame wave now.

I HOPE that's true.

I just watched this news report video about it in which the studio guys said that she can sing well and in key but they still autotuned the shit out of her because... um... it's cool? It's hip and the in thing, I guess

My opinion? ***** needs to listen to some Every Time I Die (I say this just 'cause I'm listening to some ETID)

But what annoys me the most, is that the girl herself is an okay singer, yet the amount of Autotune is ridiculous so that she sounds like she is just being the worst singer in the world.
This. Simply by watching this video you can see that the girl herself is actually pretty good. She is either going to be ruined because the song is horrifically bad or she is going to be the next sensation because when you get past the autotune she isn't bad. She's Disney Channel material, she has a demographic to target, if they can cut the autotune and just get her to sing then she'll be popular and will be the next big thing; if, that is.

Here's the video I referenced earlier


EDIT: That freeze frame is... indescribably unlucky.
Hahah wow what is this video?
Its like all her friends and family came to reasure her how awesome she is?
I guess the poor girl needs some support after pretty much the entire world of internet users have taken a big steaming dump on her head.
Whats worrying here is her parents paid to have their daughter put in this situation.WTF were they thinking?If I was her father I would have pulled the plug after the first listen.

If she makes any money from this, I hope she saves it. I really don't see a second hit with that vocal range, unless she turns out to be a good rapper or something.

I can see how pre-teen girls would love it, it seems like something relatable when all you worry about is BFF's, stickers, gum and passing notes in class. Still, nothing that anyone older can latch on which means she may end up Disney Channel to obscurity.

She's still better then Clay Aiken or U2...

It's a song I don't particularly like. Thankfully, I'm not the type of douche bag that needs to berate it as the worst song ever just because it's more popular than anything I like and more importantly far more popular than anything I'll ever make.

Completely this.

Rebecca Black had no part in writing or producing the song. Her parents paid a company, she got recorded and put on the Internet. Then I think I was on Tosh.0 and it exploded from there.

Hate the songwriters, hate the producers, hate the film director, hate the company. But there isn't any reason to hate the girl...

I would very much like to tell you my thoughts on that 'song'. However, I think the descriptive language I would have to use would be too foul to display even on the internet...

It's a joke, it has got to be a joke.

And even if it isn't, it gives me hope. Keep in mind that it's become famous not because people like it, but because people agree it's absolutely terrible. So for all the bad taste, at least the masses still have some sense.

Without all the autotune bullcrap, she's decent. Whats terrible are the crappy lyrics She didn't write.

Can anybody else detect this becoming another Justin Bieber? They both began as hits on youtube.
Aaaanyway, the songs awful, autotune wrecked it so now she sounds like she's strangling a cat everytime she says Friday. But I guess you could say she's an OK singer at best if they didn't add in so much autotune.

This is now a song about a troubled young man who dies of alcohol blood poisoning after a weekend long bender.
