At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three songs. Listen to the brilliant phrasing of every note. You can practically hear every nuance of her voice. In terms of lyrical craftsmanship, the sheer songwriting, this song hits a new peak of professionalism. In this song, Rebecca Black rebels against the problems of abusive parental authority. It's the most moving pop song if the decade. Her lyrics are as positive and affirmative as anything I've heard in rock. Rebecca Black's solo career seems to be more commercial and therefore more satisfying, in a narrower way. But I also think Rebecca works best within the confines of the group, than as a solo artist, and I stress the word artist.

What meme is this?

Just a guess, but she might be trying to lampoon the reddit user LiberalArtsMajor who writes posts like that a lot.

I think she is just quoting Patrick Bateman

EDIT: Although it's incomplete as I recall him saying "Christy, get down on your knees so Sabrina can see your asshole. " right after claiming Friday is the most moving pop song of the decade.

Please don't ruin American Psycho with that bullshit Rebecca Black meme.

Too late.

God I love Bateman. "Don't just stare at it, eat it."

Patrick Bateman: Do you like Rebecca Black and the crew?
Paul Allen: They're OK.
Patrick Bateman: Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Friday came out in '11, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. She's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Rebecca has a far much more bitter, cynical sense of humor.
Paul Allen: Hey Halberstram.
Patrick Bateman: Yes, Allen?
Paul Allen: Why are their copies of the style section all over the place, d-do you have a dog? A little chow or something?
Patrick Bateman: No, Allen.
Paul Allen: Is that a rain coat?
Patrick Bateman: Yes it is! In '11, Rebecca released this, Friday, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Friday", a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself.
[raises axe above head]
Patrick Bateman: Hey Paul!
[he bashes Allen in the head with the axe, and blood splatters over him]
Patrick Bateman: TRY GETTING A RESERVATION AT DORSIA NOW YOU FUCKING STUPID BASTARD! YOU, FUCKING BASTARD!

No, but that sounds interesting.

Yes. I took out the other parts like "I want you to clean your vagina" because it didn't make sense in the context of Rebecca Black.

You laugh you lose? I'll take that bet!

When that was first leaked, that shit horrified me.

Pessimism · March 30th, 2011, 04:43 AM

Yeah, I thought it was cool as hell. I wish I could find the balloon popping seen on youtube. At least the whole thing has been uploaded, so I'll get to see this in full later.

Anyone ever heard of Deathspell Omega lyrics generator? I don't know if it is true or not but when I heard about this I laughed my ass off. The idea is epic.
