Rebecca singing that "we so excited", "we gon have a good time" almost sounds like someone who learned english phonetically

11. there's this moment around 2:53 that makes me feel like Kristen Bell and NatPo fucked and then had a baby and that baby grew up and then fucked the Bird Lady from KitH and then that baby reached adolescence, and then made this music video.
this is still making me lose my shit btw

I genuinely like "Chocolate Rain"
It reminds me of things I wrote when I was in high school

(admittedly I only like it in 45 second chunks)
even though the lateral mic breathe thing was a beloved trademark, an artist is like a shark he has to keep moving or he'll die

I barely even remember why I found this funny, now it just seems like an awkward but damn catchy song. The only bit that still brings it reliably is when Pato shows up.

but the lyrics are:
kickin' in the front seatsittin' in the back seatcan't make my mind upwhich seat should I take?
... so she's already seated in the back, kicking the front seat, and she still isn't sure where to sit...?
also re: the video screwing up the song, I love LOVE "my friend on the right"

i thought she was weighing her options like "kickin' in the front seat seems fun, but hey, sittin' in the back seat has its upsides as well!"
― some dude, Friday, 18 March 2011 21:23 (thirteen years ago) link
Whether she can sing or not is irrelevant.. she's been immortalized as an autotune singer. Millions of people now associate her voice with how it specifically sounds in this song and for better or worse nothing will change that.

wait i'm pretty sure the tweet about the airport came from a fake rebecca black twitter, yes? (i am assuming _RebeccaBlack_ is fake)
Why would someone set up a fake Rebecca Black Twitter a year before she became famous?

Also the video lies.. in the song she's supposed to be choosing her seat on the schoolbus, but in the video they used a car because they couldn't find a schoolbus for the videoshoot.

And yes it really did take me all week to figure that out..

What's more fun: kickin' or sittin'? I feel like the front seat is the obvious call.
― dlp9001, Friday, 18 March 2011 22:38 (thirteen years ago) link
Next Friday I'm going to push the boat out and try kicking in not the front seat but the back seat

Rebecca Black otm! Her sentence construction leads me to believe that she could do a much better job writing her own lyrics than the Ark hacks.
also, she should cover Big Fun (Big Fun Fun Fun Fun?)

i don't know much about how twitter works since i do not have one but i read somewhere that whoever owns it changed the account name once rb got big
in any case, the ark page said at one point that she did not have any official facebook/twitter/etc, until they put up her (sadly quite boring) @REBECCAFANCLUB twitter page
― teledyldonix, Saturday, 19 March 2011 01:02 (thirteen years ago) link
Let it be noted that the actual lyric is "my friend is by my right", which isn't even "here's my friend!" but is more "i have a friend in the general vicinity of this side of me"

Naw, it's enjambed:
"I see my friends kickin' in the front seat, si'in' in the back seat"
The whole damn thing is just so harebrained that it's hard to let yourself register that the writers had a thought that sustained itself over a whole line break.

I don't buy the bus thing - if it were truly a bus, "front seat" and "back seat" would be plural, since there are multiple front seats and multiple back seats in a bus
― dayo, Saturday, 19 March 2011 02:22 (thirteen years ago) link
plus cool kids would never sit in the front seat on a school bus.
