I will never forgive you for making me aware of that video's existence. I was 35 seconds in before I remembered I could stop it.

Wow. You're a pretty girl. Please get by on your looks and leave creativity and music to those who have talent.
I couldn't help but notice everybody in that video had a look of "Is the camera on? What do I do?" It was supposedly a song of celebration and love of parties and the weekend, yet everyone looked bored and uncomfortable. Especially Ms. Black, who was constantly standing stiff as a plank and giving a phony smile.
Worst video ever? Meh. I'd rather watch it a second time than District 9, but maybe because this was merely 3 minutes long. Might make a fun RiffTrax short, though!

I like the fact that it begins with real song lyrics. Then her song began, and all hopes of taste, beauty, sanity evaporated. I think this scarred me more than "The Human Centipede." I'm starting to miss Milli Vanilli, and that ain't good.

It's...hypnotizing in its awfulness. It's actually appropriate that there's a MST3K connection, because it has that "I must look away, but I can't" quality that many of the best/worst movies that MST3K did had.
Every single element of this music video is wrong and ill-conceived on every level...and that's even before the rap starts.

What was up with that grown man excited to see some teenagers? Is he an ephebophile? What does he have do to with the song at all?

My favorite part is when she started explaining the days of the week... I think even Elmo would slap her for that.
And now this masterpiece...

You go, Solgroupie! Now, what was that Rebecca Black was saying about Fridays? It seems she just can never make up her mind about where to sit in a car. Maybe she should catch the bus. Oh, wait, nix that. She might start singing about that, too.

I think the lyrics were made by her singing to somebody's scrabble game.

I think the lyrics were made by her singing to somebody's scrabble game. and a parody video is thus born. working on it.

What the hell...?
This...this is not a song.
Okay, yes. There's music, and words, in the broadest technical sense, I suppose. But...
...
...
This song is the compressed, set-to-music version of what it's like to do my job, taking pizza orders over the phone.
We've all sat around and played "What Superpower Would You Most Like To Have?" and some idiot always wants to read others' thoughts. They apparently feel it would give them power over others or some such rot. It would not--it would drive you to madness with incredible efficiency and speed, and I know this for sure.
This is because when you take someone's pizza order, the odds are about one in five that despite the fact that they called you, presumably of their own free will, with the goal of having a pizza delivered to their location so they can stuff it in their face, when you ask them basic questions concerning their name, location, and type of pizza they had in mind, they completely fall apart.
Thus, you have to listen to someone's ENTIRE thought process; every "um", every "er", every babbling stream of words that starts out promisingly enough but then devolves to "well I dunno maybe honey do you want GET THE CAT OFF THE TABLE pineapple half soda salad sauce do I want sauce how big is a seventeen inch pie let's see purse" within one second.
That, and this song, are what mindreading would really be like...a stream of blahblahblah punctuated by FRIDAY or FRONT SEAT/BACK SEAT set to that vocal-to-robot tech sound crap. There are people out there who really have to remind themselves that Friday Comes After Thursday, and PARTY PARTY PARTY should fit in there somewhere.

autotuning is a crime against humanity and should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Ya gotta admit she makes her stance on weekends clear, with no apologies.
Her next offerings: I Like My Bike, Candy Is Good and Help the Police.
