THIS ISN'T EVEN MUSIC.
Warning: This song will cause insanity to anyone who knows what music is. I might be ok with the entire thing if people didn't think it was music. Still. Whenever I hear this...thing...on the radio it makes me want to drive my car through the nearest dance club. Weed out some of the drains on society.

You hear that? This "song" is a drain on society. It's a step in the wrong direction.

Cons to this song:

-Not creative.
-Repetitive.
-I'm not even sure they put effort into this. "Hey, listing the weekdays doesn't exactly match up to the beat, so I'm just going to say Saturday twice to make it fit." Can you really not think of anything better?
-Random phrases thrown in that don't really apply.
-Makes me turn off the radio.
-Not meant to be music.
-Heavily damaged my faith in society.

Pros:

-I now know which of my friends are complete morons, because they this song.

A good start, but a lousy middle....
The first time I heard this song was on the radio on my way to work one day. The beginning is catchy and very much what I like to listen to, but then it got to the middle part, which seems a bit like a cross between rapping and just talking. At that point, I turned off the bleedin' radio.
But, of course, the song kept coming on because it's popular with today's youth, so I kept having to listen to it.
Eventually, it grew on me. So now, I can listen to the whole song and happily whistle the 'Tonight's gonna be a good night' part on my walk into work, without being grumpy about the middle part, which I *still* dislike.

I got a bad feeling about this...
"I gotta feeling" is one the most annoying pop songs around. It works as background music at work--but more than that,no way. "Tonight is gonna be a good good night" gets repeated ad nauseam. There are Hebrew phrases tossed in for no reason like "mazel tov" and "l'chaim" as if this were some demented take on "Fiddler on the Roof" (Fergie on the Roof?) It's got the heart of hip-hope like Vanilla Ice. The music video has some idiosyncratic touches like people wearing fluorescent make-up and a drag queen from RuPaul's Drag Race--but the music itself is bad.

How this song has managed to outpace the late Michael Jackson's classics surprises me. I'd take "Bad" over this any day... since this song IS Bad.
