Thoughts? I think it is for real but it could go either way.

[DetroitVelvetSmooth]

It's real. There are a bunch of other equally appalling acts on the label. The concept of "cool" doesn't exist in the mainstream the same way it used to in the 90s. Culture is getting very very weird.

I see what you mean dald, its so bad it comes off as fake and gay.

[Kalifa]

it's a joke, it's only wednesday

[Humerox]

upon further reflection i think we're dropping bombs in all the wrong places

[RapidScotch]

Pretty sure its for reals...and she sux. ahhh X_X

[Kalifa]

i can't decide who should feel more insulted by the comparisons to justin bieber

Couldn't have said it better myself. This is a sonic abortion.

[Bruno]

That is on par with http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8m5CIcbytfM

I thought the same exact thing after listening to both videos.

Ultimate trolls?

Her record label is spam viewing the youtube link to make it look like it has 9million views

All I see is a bunch of spoiled ass rich kids driving around in cars way nicer then anything I can afford.

A. Her voice is just God awful
B. The lyrics, again, are God awful
C. She isn't even hot

Which is why I wondered if it was fake or real :/

Auto Tune.
I like fridays as well.
I'd fuck her.

[Hasbinbad]

This shit makes N'Sync look amazing.

I've been anti-pop for a long time. This confirms my feelings, and validates my against-the-grain ideas about how this culture is ruining civilization.

[Hoggen]

When she "sings" "friday," it sounds like someone stepped on a duck.

[Alawen Everywhere]

On the flip side of pop, you have talent like Adele, Duffy and Amy Winehouse coming out of England. American music is just in a horrible slump. My favorite "artist" to hate right now is Ke$ha.

...Can't fix even this.
Who doesn't? We don't need a song about it.
You'd go to jail.

[Yinaltin]

friday friday friday friday friday friday friday friday friday friday friday friday friday friday friday friday oh lord its friday friday friday friday ...

STFU ! !

[Daldaen]

Yesterday was Thursday
Today it is Friday

The lyrical genius that is found in this song is simply astounding.

Why is the quit button not greyed out?
That's not supposed to be an option.

I just figured this shit was attracting people in the same manner as a train wreck...Gotta stop and stare at this atrocity.

Awesome. Makes it bearable!

[Zereh]

This was done at a studio that only requires that you have $$, and not talent (obv), to get some recording time and to make a video.

[Tudana]

we so excited!!!!

[azeth]

my guess is the record label bends backwards for some individual with the last name Black, herego this experiment with his daughter to see if she can sell anything.

[Ihealyou]

I enjoyed this song, and thought the lyrics were meaningful and thought provoking. I appreciated the allusion to The Cure's Friday I'm in love in the opening scene, and felt that it sets the tone for the rest of the song. This song is about a young girl looking forward to the weekend. She has spent the week absorbed in her studies, and wishes to relax with her friends. Through the video, we see that Rebecca Black's happiness is merely a facade.

When she wakes up, she is already confronted by the demands of modern society, and the pressures it puts on young women. She claims that she has to wake up "to be fresh". As early as 7 AM, she is seen as a hyper-sexualized object, as is forced to conform to society's expectations of her. Everyone in her house is rushing to get ready, ignoring the social interactions and familial bonds which are so vital to healthy relationships. Her robotic smile betrays a underlying sadness. She must put on a happy face for a society which frowns on showing one's true feelings.

When her friends pick Rebecca up, we see more of what is actually going on in her life. Instead of being happy to see Rebecca, her friends are more interested in where she will sit in the car. She is merely a decoration for the car, giving both the car and its owner the validity and approval needed to be accepted by their peers.

Rebecca claims that everyone is looking forward to the weekend, and that they wish to "party, party, party". As the viewer sees in the next scene, Rebecca's idea of a "party", is instead an escapist fantasy. She is in the same car as before, but this time it is just her and a few friends. She is accepted by her peers, and is enjoying the bonds created with them. Once Rebecca leaves this fantasy, we find her at a house party, walking around alone. Again, her robotic singing shows how she is merely going through the motions required to be popular. In Rebecca's fantasy car, she is genuinely happy, even going so far as to hug her friends. At the real party, her forced smile is ignored by all, as she is again just an object which gives validity to the party and its host.

In the song, Rebecca sings that "we, we, we so excited" about the weekend and partying. The word "we" is not repeated three times just for musical effect. It was a very deliberate choice of words. She does not say "I am so excted". She assumes that the group as a whole enjoys the partying lifestyle, because she does not. Through peer pressure she is forced to assimilate to the activities of the popular crowd, even though they do not bring her happiness. Like many people before her, Rebecca is seeking happiness through partying, when she only needs to create real social bonds to be happy. As the listener hears Rebecca sing about looking forward to the weekend, he is left wondering: is she trying to convince us, or herself?

[Mardur]

It only cost her (parents) $2000 for that video, and she's scheduled to be on Leno etc soon.

[jballe3]

she sucks balls, and proof is in the auto tune. man i hate auto tune

[Killua]

she sucks balls, and proof is in the auto tune. man i hate auto tune

Even auto-tune doesn't make her sound good.

[Atern]

Holy shit! She was saying "Friday"? I thought she was saying "Fried Egg"

[Vonkaar]

What day is it again? I'm confused and I wish she'd clear it up for me.

[Daldaen]

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


Who knew? What an insightful girl.
