Top 100 moments in Rebecca Black's "Friday" music video

I don't know about Stateside, but in the UK, it is most definitely Friday.

rebecca black and FUN FUN FUN still trending on twitter - honestly didn't think it'd last this long

Anyone done a footwurk remix of 'Fun Fun Fun Fun Fun' yet? That would slay.

Charlie Brooker etc etc last night.

OK, my first, and final, unique opinion on this.

It's not brilliant, it's not total crap.

wow. that was worth saying... OK, here's a different perspective.

In a box...

It's fully, I've always known that everyone that writes sings, usually does a song about the days of the week at some point. (Just knowing that means I never did).

Someone I know had a lot of money put aside for their musical career and education. Before I met the dude, I saw this video, it was a 'funky lil number' about each day of the week, Monday, no fun day, etc. Kind of like Jamiroquais crossed with Lloyd Cole singing, if you can imagine that.

It was 'alright', but the second time I saw the vid I wa already 'bored' with the song. Which is not a great result....

Anyway, many years after we 'worked together' sort of, I saw that he was in the lower reaches of the chart, musical style much the same, although some of the lines were blatantly lifted from StereoMCs... Not my cuppa, but fair play he got there a little.

A few years later, he has a hit for The Tweenies, with the same song slightly rewritten. Oh dear.

And then, a few years after that, some award ceremony, I hear Will Young thanking him specifically for writing his latest chart topper.

So, the moral of this story is...

Um. carry on regardless, I guess...

pssh: my typing

It's funny, I've always known that everyone that writes songs, usually does a song about the days of the week at some point. (Just knowing that means I never did).

Carry on.

She looks like Winnie from The Wonder Years. Was she called Winnie? The one Kevin was obsessed with who looks like Rebecca Black.

no way, that's operating on a way higher level of songcraft

well yeah, usually flimsy copies are more functionally retarded

Thanks, internet. Now I have "Gang Fight" stuck in my head.

"Gang Fight" rules!

i honestly thought this would be "over" within like a week but somehow views-wise and sales-wise this is STILL getting more popular, more popular than it has ever been right now

gang fight more catchy than friday, imo

<3 Gang Fight.

I played this for my kids (Bieber/Kesha fans) and they were merely bored with it. It's not even good to press their buttons and get them screaming "TURN IT OFF! TURN IT OFF!" (like they do with "The Leanover" by Life Without Buildings). Disappointed, really.

Party hats party hats, yeah!

gang fight is completely legit

Ha, this is going to be like the viral "Avatar." Everyone gives it a listen, everyone either loves it or hates it, and then the next thing you know, it's grossed over a billion dollars.

(OK, no one loves the Black song, per se, but she is in 3-D!)

just needs the hypocrisy of fans of Jordy criticizing the tune and it's settled

5th element is love imo

Untalented white girls need an untalented role model they can identify with. Because some white girls are too scared to dress like Katy Perry and Lady Gaga.

"And unbeknownst to parents, in the the underground L.A. dupstep party circuit, anytime you repeat the word "fun" more than twice, the third "fun" refers to a line of coke and the fourth requests an eight ball."

Puts "Gang Fight" in a new light.

"it's actually less ottertune that we use"

did "Friday" break youtube? it's definitely the most viewed video of the week and month, and right now it's the 119th most viewed video (& 75th most viewed music video) of all time. yet it doesn't appear on any of youtube's charts. suspicious?

i've noticed this as well. fuckin youtube conspiracies

nah. more like a shameless ripoff of the Waitresses' "I know what boys like."

youtube hides a lot of highly viewed videos from the most viewed lists, especially ones that are semi-porny.

a few months ago Billboard started a 'Social 50' chart in an attempt to measure which artists are generating the most activity on YouTube, social networking sites, etc (like, Gaga and Bieber typically top the chart). Rebecca Black just crashed the chart at #9: http://www.billboard.com/#/charts/social-50

everyone wants to know, who are you?

that's a very good question.

"And unbeknownst to parents, in the the underground L.A. dupstep party circuit, anytime you repeat the word "fun" more than twice, the third "fun" refers to a line of coke and the fourth requests an eight ball."

"And she'll have Fun fun fun till her daddy takes the 8-ball away..."

so he's eastern european? i knew the lyrics sounded like ESL.

He's South African.

we're both right. he was born in south africa and moved to eastern europe at age 17.
