Review: Rebecca Black's Friday

Its time for a review! :D
Well, first things first.
Yes, I know everybody hates on this song. Yes, I also know that a lot of people are talking about it.
Well I'm gonna talk about it anyways. So there.
So *drum roll please*.....


PLAY UNDER REVIEW: "Friday" by Rebecca Black

Well, we start the song with Rebecca warbling some horrible-sounding notes that remind me of a crossover between this one thing I heard on YouTube called "Meow Mix" and Caramelldansen.

After the bad animation of a flip calendar and a sketchy animation of her singing, we see Rebecca wake up in her bed. Her hair isn't straightened, but she has makeup on already.
Do you put on makeup before you wake up? Yeah, thought not.
Then she attempts to rhyme "bowl" and "cereal." Apparently it technically rhymes, but its a really crappy rhyme, amirite?

We then see her friends driving a CAR (a convertible, in fact). Since she and her friends are 13, this may worry some people. Then we notice that the front row is full, and there is one seat in the back. And then she sings "Which seat should I take?" Rebecca, there is only one seat. Therefore there is only one seat to take. SO TAKE IT.

IF 13 year olds driving a car don't worry you, the second verse consists of her and her friends basically standing in the back of the car "cruising down the highway." Her two friends (wearing strapless dresses) are sitting on either side of her. All the seats are full. She is even in the car. And yet, she still wonders which seat she should take!

Then: "Yesterday was Thursday, today is Friday, tomorrow is Saturday, Sunday comes afterwards" REALLY? I didn't know that!
"We we we so excited!" I think you are missing something important.... are... ARE... *HINT HINT*
Don't even get me started on the rap. All I'm gonna say is, the rap makes no sense with the rest of the song. And it's bad.
Then all of them go to this party downtown and have "fun fun fun fun"
Then you breath a sigh of relief as the autotuned final words "Looking forward to the weekend" creep past your damaged eardrums.

I do realize, Rebecca Black fans, that it is the company that does this. I know Rebecca did not write the song or produce her music video, and I have nothing personal against her.

But anything THAT badly autotuned deserves to be flamed.
