I remember all of the hate filled ranting this caused on the internet when it came out 3 freaking years ago. Seriously, if you are going to get sand in your vagina about something, try to pick something that everyone didn't already grow bored with and forget about when president Bush was still in office. Next thing you know people will start digging up videos of the Backstreet Boys and complaining about the impending apocalypse. Get over it.

dude youre hella cool. im diggin the south park reference, you must be very proud.

its just annoying that you see people who work their whole lives toward something, and these guys come along and just s*** all over the whole concept of music. and the whole argument that violence is inherently bad...... you gotta draw the line somewhere.

it's like what i'd hear on a station up in Eugene,Salem,Corvallis,Portland etc with huge college influence.no it's not my Skynyrd,nor FFinger death punch,and no country stuff (i won't continue mentioning jonres) what IT IS is new rock technopop synthesized dubbed music that attracts kids.played on the radio in their car all they are really hearing is the groove.

he!! it's phsycho disco pop,,and with over 6 million views(and read the comments),,,they must be doing something right,i feel; when you are young and you want fame you follow what you beleive will get you there,,this has gone on forever with Elvis shaking his hips etc.,,anything for a buck and to roll on with it.
myself,i hope i can get that fricken jingle out of my head before i go to sleep!:eek:,i'm gonna be mad if i wake up singing let's get freaky now:rollno:,better go find some Free Bird:)

later man relax,,it's all about the money,one day they'll be covering Tony Bennett songs at pizza parlors for change:smug:

Late 1980's anime called. They want their hair and nutthugger pants back.

Anyone else notice that the shrieking little turds are too big a bunch of pussies to allow comments on most of their videos? Everything must be approved, lol. They can curse their brains out, whilst abusively grabbing onto a small gaggle of confused looking poptarts who can't even dance, but they don't have the stones to hear what people think of their thoughtless garbage targeted at thoughtless garbage.

Testosterone missed that bunch of tools by a country mile. Anyone ever hear of a banty rooster? They are the overly aggressive runt males, who endlessly scramble around like freaks trying to mate with anything female, but aren't tall/big enough to get the job done.

The most frustrating part, to me, though, is that they have millions of hits on youtube, compared to incredible musicians who will never receive any of the things they deserve, let alone a couple thousand hits on youtube.

The reason they have millions of hits on youtube is because of guys making posts that say, "ZOMG WTFBBQSAUCE!!! This is the worst crap I've ever seen, this makes me so angry I wanna punch babies in the ovaries!" They then post a link to the video, and guess what happens -- that's right, people click the link...which opens the page and advances the hit counter. Weird........ :hmm: :eyebrow:

Back in the day, The Clash, The Ramones, et. al. were considered not to be great musicians, were going against the mainstream, and were meant to piss parents off and such. Music goes through these phases.

However, folks like the Clash, Ramones, and others actually had songs that ended up passing the test of time.

Many one-hit-wonders have had some some sort of musical value as people still like listening to those songs. Some say those folks hit on a fad that went away.

The stuff (read $#!t) these dudes are putting out, will never, ever pass any test of time for any kind of musicianship or production value. There is a big different between fad and crap and unfortunately teenage tastes really do seem to be unable to tell the difference based on the fact there's over 6m views of this.

Good marketing to a demographic, maybe, good music, hell no.
