Rebecca Black Plague Thread

[Mekkah]

Welcome back, Smogon forums!

Welcome to the glorious thread both celebrating and loathing the Black plague. If you have been living under a rock for all of the Fridays in the past 2 months or so:

The one and only real video
(don't forget hitting the thumbs down button)

In this thread, we will discuss, hate on, and most of all laugh at this miserable yet hilarious piece of "pop music".

The one thing this video was good for, though, was providing us with a LOT of analyses, parodies, spoofs, and other video/picture gimmicks across the internet. Please post the funniest ones you can find here.

Rap that asks a few questions
Friday on Gameboy Color
Brock Dub
In depth lyrical analysis

That's only four, let's do something about it!

Pretty sure the real star here is Pato, AKA Patrice, AKA pedophile, AKA fat fat fat fat Usher.

Dana Vachon brilliantly elaborates on the message of despair and power beautifully hidden within Friday.

Death Metal (or deathcore?, i don't know) Version of the song
Is pretty funny at the beginning, annoying after 2 minutes

I admit it, I have Black Plague as well.

The gameboy version is amazing, but the best dub imo is the "Stephen Colbert & The Roots - Friday [HD] on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" one, the whole crowd is screaming and rightfully so.

I need a Soul Patrol badge.

Charlie Sheen's tweet - "dear Rebecca Black, we don't hate you because you're famous, you're famous because we hate you :) "

The producers of this shit, who admittedly cater to parents willing to pay to have their kid in a music video, haven't stopped with friday. FYI they are apparently the two brown dudes pointing at a screen with enjoyment in the link below. Also, they use the same black dude to do clone raps in ever god damn song that they feel needs it (which is most).

Ordinary Pop Star

Mark Vital's page I highly suggest the song "Dream Girl" as the chorus is to DIE for (IIf you are an idiot, scroll down to player and change the song to "dream girl").

Yes, it seems like Ark Records is just getting warmed up.

I thought the 'Sunday' parody was pretty good, especially the rap part. http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMjU3MzQ4NTUy.html

sorry, no youtube link because shit doesn't work over here.

 

[BKC]

why are you guys hating on her? she's so misunderstood
:(

 

[Colonel M]

You know a song is awesome when it has a fucking acoustic version.

Also expected pedobear

 

[GlassAbsol]

This is the scariest thing in the world. I've never been able to watch the whole thing it's not funny, but it represents how scary the development that song brought to the music industry is. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5AcYsHkV6n4

I remember this song playing while me and my shrimp loving friend, Bubba, were in 'Nam. It was one of the only things that kept us going the whole time. Thank the lord for Bob Dylan.

i can see why some people would find this frightening but i thought it was absolutely hilarious

 

[Firestorm]

I have been listening to Game Day on a daily basis. More than daily actually.

 

[Cooky]

I think this is probably the best parody

 

[Cooper]

A very nice orchestral version of the song, I think it sounds really good. Fortunately, they cut out the most annoying part of the song - her voice. Unfortunately, this gave me the opportunity to sing along. If I didn't hate myself before, I do now.

 

[Zacchaeus]

Death Metal Friday is actually a lot better than the original version in my opinion. And it's not really death metal, closert to metalcore (ninjad but he's not a metalhead so I should be the one posting it)

And Brock's Dub is fantastic

So is Game Day

 

[TorchicBlaziken]

But I love that song! It is full of lulz!

O.O google suggests rule 34 of her

google also suggests her as soon as i type the letter r

but that's google's fault

 

[JabbaTheGriffin]

i'd say the strongest lyrical analysis is by rebecca black herself

Best cover of it ever.

 

[Colonel M]

Oh I just found this on Oh Internet - Kids React To Viral Videos

5 bucks says mingot's kid is the one that stated not forgiving Rebecca Black.

 

[His Eminence Lord Poppington II]

i'd say the strongest lyrical analysis is by rebecca black herself

that was great, lol. regardless if it was actually her or not.

 

[sonickid01]

No one posted Colbert? D:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLAMhTorPCk
from Jimmy Fallon, featuring Colbert and The Roots.

 

[CaptKirby]

the Colbert shit was fucking terrible

best version was the horror version, start sounded just like Ness battling Gigyas

 

[mudkipmaster]

We shall form a resistance to plan an assassination. Also, we must quarantine the infected and starve them. After, we disinfect the quarantining room and outlaw the playing of Friday to prevent future pandemics.
