Yahoo featured a story today about this song. Wow. I didn't think it would be as bad as it said, but it was!
"The virality of "Friday," a wannabe weekend-party anthem for the new generation, had nothing to with the song being any good, Rebecca being particularly attractive or gifted, or even with the fact that it was, well, the weekend. It's simply because it was so unbelievably BAD. ("A whole new level of bad," according to none other than Time magazine.) And it's because the song and video raised so many fascinating questions...such as:
Who the heck is this girl? How did she get a record deal? Why is she sitting at a bus stop, if her friends are picking her up in their car? Why is she so indecisive about whether to sit in the front or back seat? If the girl standing to her right is her friend, then is that girl on her left her frenemy? Did the general public REALLY need to be informed that Thursday comes before Friday, or that Sunday comes after Saturday? And, most importantly: Is this a real thing? Or is this an SNL Digital Short for which the Lonely Island are responsible?
There are so many ridiculous quotes to choose from! Such as:
"Fun, Fun, Think about Fun, you know what it is."
"Gotta catch my bus, I see my friends, kicking in the front seat, sitting in the back seat, gotta make my mind up which seat can I take."
