The lyrics are absolutely the least of it, although the fact that she
comes off as fake as Tila Tequila is if nothing else amusing. My
problem is that the song itself barely exists -- the rest of the song
is merely a delivery mechanism for the chorus, which I think is trite
and melodically shallow, as well as endlessly repetitive -- and both
the arrangement and the production are ghastly. And I also can't
stand her voice, or at least her delivery on this song: if she liked
it so much, why is she YELLING about it like that?
No, it's pretty safe to say I'd hate this song no matter who did it.
(On the other hand, I hated Material Issue, so that's not a fair
comparison. Let's say: Redd Kross could have done this song and I
would have hated it.)
