So I was wondering about this band and went and checked out to see what they were up to and lo and behold they released a new single from an upcoming album about a month ago.
I realize as of now there is no adds date, but after I saw this I had to share it. This is a band having some fun and making me laugh hysterically. I really want this to hit radio, lmfao!!!!! Even as a novelty this is catchy as hell. And I dare you to not be singing it tomorrow when no one's watching!!!

Well, I tried to dislike this. And putting forth a solid effort is sometimes good enough, right?

It's like I said in the "Make Her Say" thread... with competition like this and "You're a Jerk," you just can't go calling "I Love College" the worst song of the year. EDIT: lol, after a quick glimpse at the pop forum, I see you already responded to this. Well played. |

I'll admit it. I'm a big Bowling For Soup fan. I'm actually going to buy tickets tomorrow afternoon for their show next month down here.
I have to say as much as their music is incredibly fun to listen to because their lyrics are for the most part hilarious, their tunes are insanely catchy, and they are the first band I'd think of to listen to when I need cheering up, this song is absolutely nothing special and I hope does not get sent to Alternative. Really, I hope the band never gets sent to the format again. It's for their own good.
But, yes "A Hangover You Don't Deserve" is a great album that I will probably never get tired of. Their last album "The Great Burrito Extortion Case" was good, but didn't compare. I'm looking forward to this new album, but am hoping the rest of the songs are better than "My Wena."

For me, this song is just them having some fun. I honestly think some people need to grab a sense of humor or at least realize bands CAN do music just for the fun of it. Not every song has to be serious, political or heart wrenching. This is just one of those songs that's just having a good time. And for that, thank you Bowling For Soup.
And I'm sure they'll have other songs on the album that aren't like this for the fans who want something different.

Hell, I was one of the people defending "Make Her Say." I also find a lot of Bowling for Soup enjoyable enough. However, I don't find it fun when my intelligence is outright insulted. Give me something lyrically clever or musically interesting or something; don't give me something that sounds like a 13-year-old's attempt at writing a song. |

I'll add that even though I kinda like the song (despite everything WotUNeed said above being 100% true), the video is bad. I mean, what's the point of even making a play on words like that if you're going to dress the girl up as a dick in the video? They might as well just say "my penis is lonely tonight" and not try to disguise it at all if they're gonna do that.

So if you just heard it on the radio you'd think they were singing about a penis as if it were a girl. But, by watching the video, you see they're singing about a dog as if it were a penis. Yeah, not sure I like it either, lol. |

It apparently has amassed over 100 spins in the last week at CHR stations. If it charts there, I will be amazed.

I may be a mature adult and live a pretty clean cut lifestyle but I will never lose my "juvenile" side. I swear to god if I'm ever insulted by a song like this that's the day my life is over. I don't take anything like this seriously , I find it absolutely hysterical.
Especially when she's shaving near the end, nearly spit water all over my computer.

It's better than "Crazy Bitch" and "I Almost Told You That I Loved You".
