I'm in love with this song... Sure the lyrics aren't good, but the "Weezer" sample works really well and it's catchy as hell.  |

OMG! I've known of it, but not pursued hearing it. I just recently heard it on KIIS. I'm not even sure where to start.
A) It's a blatant gimmick, which DUH yall have posted that, but it's just so blatant I'm shocked.
B) He sounds so much like Eminem, yet he also is terrible.
C) The lyrics to a song of this type could be sooo much better and a song like this could be written really well and be great, sadly this fails.
D) I dont know. I don't even know!
This is one of those songs that I'll have to pretend to like when I'm sober because my friends will find it necessary to think it's the coolest song ever, but when I'm drunk I'm sure I'll enjoy it more.
It drags on soooo much too, and the video is LOL...Plus the dumb lyric about wearing two condoms...that's especially stupid because that makes BOTH more easily tear.
It's 2009's "I Kissed A Girl" but I don't think it'll be as high in radio play, it'll prob die out about mid april around #23 or so after spring break is over for everyone and there's a new "it" song.

Just heard it and I must say I love it. Such a good tune! Reminds me a lot of Flobots 'Handlebars' and 'Gives You Hell'.
I can see why it's doing so well!

This song is actually good. I am pleasantly surprised.  I went to college by the way and I am in no way bitter about anything. |

^Don't let the song fool ya, college is mostly nothing like how the song portrays it. Lol, yes it is. Nothing to be proud of really, but the song describes thirsty Thursday (and most other nights) to a tee. Edit: Anyways, I like this now. The song is stupid, but I don't care. |

I go to University in the UK and so there's no 'thirsty Thursday' here. Maybe it's just my uni. We go out clubbing and to the pub, but parties like Roth describes would be shut down sraight away by the cops. |

I don't mind mindless party music but this is so obvious, dull, lazy and stupid. I love college but I hate this.

I wonder why parents do not complain about the lyrics of this song instead of pulling their hairs off If U Seek Amy... to be honest, I see these lyrics much more "wrong model" for kids than Amy's... specially because it IS refering to life in College Besides that rant, I of course see myself dancing to this with my former graduate students too ;) but that's okay, a song for clubs and parties... but then, to actually hear it on the radio and have it popular, that's a big difference. The song is THAT bad, because the whole rap and lyrics are bad over a great Weezer sound... I was already torn at hearing Flo Rida receiving a blowjob to the sound of a great song by former man Pete Burns... and now this  |

I have to say that I like this a lot right now. I'm sure I'll grow tired of it very quickly, but right now I like hearing it. Sure it's a dumb song, but it's harmless enough, and I think that's pretty much the point. It reminds me a lot of my last year of college a couple years ago.

This song's success is literally making me nauseous. Pop radio has lost it's mind if this goes any higher than top 30. |

It's straight to the point unlike the hidden meaning behind 'If You Seek Amy'. Well, that lady on FoxTV was complaining about the wrong role model of Britney for kids just because she said: "All the boys and all the girls are begging to if you seek Amy" Compare that phrase to the lyrical content of the song, talking about wearing 2 condoms, having sex with a girl unless she is too drunk to remember, a naked girl dancing in front of the guy, taking a joint, drinking all day and not paying attention to studying... I think the whole idea of the song, while can be fun to hear, is much against "good principles" and more harmful to kids than saying "if you seek Amy". |
