Today is Friday, yesterday was Thursday...You Can Shoot Me Now.

Okay, I KNOW that what I'm about to comment on has absolutely NOTHING to do with our class - or really related directly to public policy - though it is related to music.

The current name all a buzz around twitter and facebook these days has been...

REBECCA BLACK.

For those of you who know and have experienced her sweet and melodious vocal style, and have been swooned by her innate talent while inculcating the deepest and purest of emotions - all while using autotune....should skip this video.

However, if you haven't treated yourself to Rebecca's sumptuous lyrical style, DO SO NOW!



I don't know about you, but every time I watch this, I definitely start dry heaving.

Okay now read this AMAZING article on Yahoo (I know you're probably asking, "Since when has Yahoo put out any articles worth reading?" I agree, but read for the comedy factor.)

Uhm, are we really serious? Is this a joke, a digital sketch by SNL?

I sure hope so.

If I'm putting this into perspective, and looking at how this particularly tripe reflects on the community as a whole...tells me that...the demographic I'll be marketing to likes...well...tripe?

Either it'll be really easy to market against this...are like fighting a bull with a banana...

(think about that last one for a minute...and then continue)

I'm baffled at how people even think this good, even with no prior background or knowledge in music. Pull out my iPod and flip through my playlists and you'll definitely find some trash in there, but at least it's quality trash!!

Lord Jesus...if this any idea of what we're in for 10 years down the road...just rip my ears off now please.

Cheers!

  1. This should be used to torture child molesters and pedophiles. Let's just play it over and over again until their ear drums bleed. But you can not deny the virility of this stupid stupid stupid song. TGIF
