I felt like the college girls dance track sensation needed to be shown.

If you've yet to hear/see it, this is a must.

Seems pretty generic pop - what am I missing?
Reading this invokes the curse of the tiny sig! Until you break the curse you'll get random MPEG artifacting on all your shoots bwahahahahaaaaa!

You can only break the curse by giving me +1 on the next 3 of my posts that you read, then you will be free again, but beware of the power of the tiny text curse, it never fails!

Cyrus?

Oh I get it. You're joking. You almost had me there Atom. Pretty funny, albeit disappointing. I was hoping for another "See You Again" style music video from you guys when I saw the thread. That was the last time I voluntarily sat through one of her songs.

Not my taste in music.

My thoughts exactly. This is neither good enough to be worth listening to nor bad enough to be worth making fun of. It's just... completely unmemorable and uninteresting in all regards. Why is it a must?

Wow, Switzerland must be great Sollthar. I bet you haven't even heard of Twilight? Maybe I should be a pensioner there. I've been to Geneva a few times and it's very beautiful.

Heh, it's maybe got more to do with the fact that she looks like someone who's probably all hip and cool and known... among teenagers who are into knowing who's hip and cool and known. And I'm neither a teenager nor interested in who's hip and cool.

As atom likes to point out: I hate fun. And I hate cool and hip even more.


Oh yes. Geneva is indeed beautiful. Give me shout when you're there next time so we can meet up and geek-chat next time.

Thank you for admitting it, Sollthar.

And umemorable? If only you knew how crazy the hundreds of sorority girls here go when this song is played at a party or from a car or whatever. It's hilarious and awe-inspiring all at once. A far shot from 'unmemorable'.

In light of my deep hatred for this song, I must admit that Atom is correct that the college sensation is a little intoxicating. How in hell does such radio-friendly bullshit get into people's heads as something listenable- let alone- danceable? In a way, I respect this song- and its artists. They've successfully manipulated people for the sake of manipulating them. What prowess!

Ben, your link made my day. How many remixes of that Biggie song haven't you heard?

I was actually digging this one until Biggie Smalls' rapping was drowned out by Cyrus.

Where Miley overlaps Biggie's chorus, yeah, it's just flat-out bad mixing; but short of that the whole "Jay-Z song was ooooon" fits pretty well into it.

Call it trite, but I found the 'remix' pretty damn catchy.
