Is Rebecca Black's "Friday" the Worst Song/Music Video of All Time?

After viewing the video once, it appears to be.

The song has absolutely pitiful lyrics that left me feeling like my IQ has decreased.

These lyrics are:

(Yeah, Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ark)
Oo-ooh-ooh, hoo yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah-ah-ah
Yeah-ah-ah
Yeah-ah-ah
Yeah-ah-ah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Rebecca Black - Verse 1]

7am, waking up in the morning
Gotta be fresh, gotta go downstairs
Gotta have my bowl, gotta have cereal
Seein’ everything, the time is goin’
Tickin’ on and on, everybody’s rushin’
Gotta get down to the bus stop
Gotta catch my bus, I see my friends (My friends)

Kickin’ in the front seat
Sittin’ in the back seat
Gotta make my mind up
Which seat can I take?

It’s Friday, Friday
Gotta get down on Friday
Everybody’s lookin’ forward to the weekend, weekend
Friday, Friday
Gettin’ down on Friday
Everybody’s lookin’ forward to the weekend

Partyin’, partyin’ (Yeah)
Partyin’, partyin’ (Yeah)
Fun, fun, fun, fun
Lookin’ forward to the weekend

[Rebecca Black - Verse 2]

7:45, we’re drivin’ on the highway
Cruisin’ so fast, I want time to fly
Fun, fun, think about fun
You know what it is
I got this, you got this
My friend is by my right
I got this, you got this
Now you know it

Kickin’ in the front seat
Sittin’ in the back seat
Gotta make my mind up
Which seat can I take?

[Chorus]

It’s Friday, Friday
Gotta get down on Friday
Everybody’s lookin’ forward to the weekend, weekend
Friday, Friday

Lookin’ forward to the weekend

[Bridge]

Yesterday was Thursday, Thursday
Today i-is Friday, Friday (Partyin’)
We-we-we so excited
We so excited
We gonna have a ball today

Tomorrow is Saturday
And Sunday comes after...wards
I don’t want this weekend to end

[Rap Verse]

R-B, Rebecca Black
So chillin’ in the front seat (In the front seat)
In the back seat (In the back seat)
I’m drivin’, cruisin’ (Yeah, yeah)
Fast lanes, switchin’ lanes
Wit’ a car up on my side (Woo!)
(C’mon) Passin’ by is a school bus in front of me
Makes tick tock, tick tock, wanna scream
Check my time, it’s Friday, it’s a weekend
We gonna have fun, c’mon, c’mon, y’all

[Chorus]

It’s Friday, Friday
Gotta get down on Friday
Everybody’s lookin’ forward to the weekend, weekend
Friday, Friday
Gettin’ down on Friday
Everybody’s lookin’ forward to the weekend

Partyin’, partyin’ (Yeah)
Partyin’, partyin’ (Yeah)
Fun, fun, fun, fun
Lookin’ forward to the weekend

It’s Friday, Friday
Gotta get down on Friday
Everybody’s lookin’ forward to the weekend, weekend
Friday, Friday
Gettin’ down on Friday
Everybody’s lookin’ forward to the weekend

Partyin’, partyin’ (Yeah)
Partyin’, partyin’ (Yeah)
Fun, fun, fun, fun
Lookin’ forward to the weekend




Clearly, we would not have known the days of the week without Rebecca Black's god-awful song.

Unfortunately, the video isn't much better.

Based on the lyrics, one would assume that Rebecca Black was talking about a ride to school on the school bus. However, there is no school bus in the music video, and it seems strange that Black is waiting at a bus stop for her friends, who are all in a car driven by another friend.

The video is also very poorly crafted together. It starts off as sketches in a notebook and quite frankly reminds me of the intro to Pappyland. In a majority of the scenes, Black seems to be awkwardly placed, and almost looks as if she has been badly photoshopped into the scene. The shift from day to night is also extremely awkward. If the song is about riding a bus to school and getting through the school week The over-dramatic facial expressions (she looks like she's traumatized to the point of tears as she wonders where to sit...wtf?) also make Black look a bit like a clown and makes it nearly impossible to take it seriously.

Is it possible that this song/video is so bad that it's good? Very much so. The video already has over 2.2 million views on Youtube and the name "Rebecca Black" has been exploding all over Facebook, Twitter, and Google. Everyone has to find out who this girl is and why her song/video is so bad.

The absolute worst part of all of this is the fact that the song is horrible, yet so damn catchy...

Good Charlotte Releases New Song, "Counting the Days" to Help Fans Count Down the Days Until "Cardiology"'s Release Date

Good Charlotte just posted via facebook a homemade video of them performing at several of this summer's Bamboozle Roadshows. The video included one of their new songs from Cardiology, "Counting the Days". The song was released to celebrate the band reaching 100k views for their first single, "Like It's Her Birthday", which will be released everywhere on August 24th, and to also help fans count down the days until the new album, "Cardiology" is released on November 2nd.

The song sounds absolutely amazing. It takes you back to Good Charlotte's earlier days as a new alternative band. The sound screams "self-titled debut!". I loved 2007's dancey "Good Morning Revival", but when it comes down to it, Old school Good Charlotte is the best Good Charlotte. I'm so excited to see the band going back to their roots and I can't wait for Cardiology to be released!

The band also hinted that new tour info would soon be available. I had the pleasure of seeing the band on the Bamboozle Road Show at Festival Pier at Penn's Landing in June and I can confirm that this band is absolutely amazing to see live. They really know how to get the crowd pumped! I'm so excited to see them again when they go on tour for "Cardiology".

You can view Good Charlotte's homemade video and listen to the new song for "Counting the Days" below.



What do you think of the new song? Are you excited for "Cardiology?". Do you want to see Good Charlotte on tour?

Facebook...Coming to a Theatre Near You?

A few months back I blogged about the rumor that Twitter would become a television show, however it turned out to be nothing more than a rumor.

However, Facebook is really going to become a movie, which I'm sure will be just as stupid.

The movie will be called The Social Network and it will be about how Facebook was formed and how it blossomed into a major social network, duh.

I'm not exactly sure how this can be stretched into a movie, but I'm also not eager to find out.

I have a feeling that this will turn into a total and complete Epic-FAIL.
