Well, you can kiss goodbye 99% of the music industry then.hankchill said:My god that was awful. I had to stop it after about 45 seconds.
If you need to autotune your voice, get the fuck out of the music business.
Well she may have thought the same thing,but wanted to make the song a little longer.Nathan Drake said:It really isn't terrible. If you aren't a fan of auto-tuning, I would stay away. Otherwise, it is slower paced, the words actually have some obvious meaning (kind of like a big F U), and it doesn't have 13/14 year old kids driving around.
I agree it better, but Friday had a "charm" to it.
QUOTE(Tonitonichopchop @ Jul 19 2011, 01:03 AM) Eh, it's a pretty poor song overall, but compared to Friday I'd say it's decent. The only part I absolutely despise is the bit later in the song when she sings about her haters and that she's making money. She'd do better to ignore them all together.

Her lyrics no depth.
She can't sing.
I wish people would just acknowledge her as a failure, so maybe someone actually deserving will get a little exposure.
She didn't get signed. Ark's a vanity label.DigitalDeviant said:I hate this sort of thing.

;O;. I actually wasn't sure though where to put it considering the amount of hype her first song got.
This sure as hell ain't news. should go under music section.

Yes, and oh yes.Raika said:Slightly better than Friday, but still shit.
She doesn't deserve this much fame and recognition, there are much better obscure musicians out there.
Honestly though, depth or feeling can't really apply anymore to the pop genre of today. All of it is auto-tuned. Take Katy Perry for example. Any "depth" and "feeling" in her songs are produced through intensive audio editing. One quick listen to a live performance and you'll realize she's just almost as incapable of singing as Rebecca Black is in terms of expression. She sounds like she's gasping for air every two words.Raiser said:Her voice is definitely.. "better" compared to Friday, but it has no depth or feeling whatsoever- things that many songs can't do without. And the song itself is just.. bland.
I actually like Katy Perry live... she's not as bad as I would expect her to be. Though personally, I think that I don't mind autotune if it's improving the music. It's there for about the same reason that there are special effects in movies, to artificially enhance it. People who complain about autotune endlessly kinda irritate me. How come people are fine with computer generated music but find fault in using autotune?CarbonX13 said:*snip
