Friday by Rebecca Black. 15 million hits on youtube and rising.
Awful video, charismatic free singer, excessive auto-tuning, lyrics so inane a europop dance track artist would be embarrassed to sing...
From wikipedia:

In an interview with The Daily BeastQuote:
, Black's mother, Georgina Kelly, recalls how a classmate of Black informed her of Ark Music Factory, an LA record label that allowed young singers to gain experience in the industry by recording a track for a small fee. Kelly paid Ark Music $2,000 for a package that included a choice of two pre-written songs.

Didn't get 30 seconds in. Awful!
But hey, she paid them $2000 to let her record it. I'm in the wrong business! lol
no you have to get to about 2:30 for the obligatory rap section! maybe John Barnes wasn't so bad after all ![]()
When it got to the rap bit I thought, hey this has to be better lyrically, it was, but only just. ![]()
I think the worst lyrics in the entire song (below) are so bad, it made me think the writers were really taking this poor girl for a ride.

Wow, I'm not sure I prefer the metal version either heh. If I do it's only because you can't hear the awful lyrics. ![]()

To me, that was just the vocal of Paparrazzi with some other instrumental track played behind it.
Didn't seem to match up or anything else, just one instrumental, one vocal.
Unless it changed nearer the end cos it was hurting my ears and I cancelled it after about a minute n a half.
Oh, and the other one is crap too LOL
