I really can't understand how anyone could say "Breathe", "White Horse", "Our Song", "Last Kiss" or even the overplayed "You Belong With Me" to be on the same level as this piece of garbage from Rebecca Black.
The lyrics in this song is so ridiculously bad that it's a big joke. IMO the only Taylor lyrics that is remotely close to this song is probably "Today Was A Fairytale". No comment on Bieber since I don't know any of his songs except for "Baby".
I'll meet you at the TS thread if you wnat to have this conversation. But honestly, I am not even trying to bash it as much as you might think. I did say that I get why people respond to it.
I have already listened to it like 4 times.
Part of the interest "is" the simplicity. It is mindless. And sometimes people want mindless. It is not unlike "Mickey" or "Rock Lobster" or "Wip It".
Yes, it is childish and mundane. But there are songs (that I can't mention here) that are equal to it, but are absurd to the umpth degree because they pose as something significant when really they are not.
Anyway. I still wanna see it become a runaway hit. And at 7 mil. I would guess that it is.
Last i checked it had over 6,000 comments. I am sure it is higher now.
Go Rebecca!
