...my dad... LOVES... THIS... so-ONG... any time I'm in the car with him and this happens to come for the third time, I politely ask for another station and he politely declines and turns up the volume. He also likes that song by Cher Lloyd... or maybe that is the one. I'm so relieved to be away from a radio presently, it doesn't much matter.
You know, it seems to me that a lot of you tend to hate the most catchiest songs, but I don't know why... For me, a song that I would hate would be "I'm Sexy and I Know It" by LMFAO, which is a music group that I really can't stand.
Anyway, going back to Carly Rae Jepsen, she also collaborated with Owl City on their "Good Time" song.
Even if you don't like "Call Me Maybe," I'm hoping that you'll still like this song.Quote:

It's always a good time
Oh, and Krissy, that Superman/Batman/Nightwing parody image was hilarious! I'm pretty sure that Batman hates the song, but everybody else in the DC Universe likes it, including his own sidekicks and allies. I'd probably think that Wolverine would hate it too, but everybody else in the Marvel Universe would like it. The thing is, though, when it comes to superhero-themed parodies of "Call Me Maybe," I've seen more from DC Comics than I have from Marvel Comics.
Part of it is a song being Catchy isn't really anything to be proud of, I'm stealing this quote (I don't remember where from) but any corprate entity can write a catchy tune. Catchy isn't bad, but at this point it's pretty superfluous.Quote:

And I will agree with you on LMFAO. They are awful.
What is wrong with liking something that is just catchy? Maybe corporations can produce them, but it doesn't change the fact it's catchy. Just sounds like elitism to me.
There's nothing wrong with liking something that's catchy and good. The problem is that being catchy alone does not make a song good. It is perfectly possible for a song to be catchy and bad.
I have never heard this song and don't plan to, but there have been a number of relatively amusing memes that have sprouted from it, so at least there's that.

Here's an example of a song that's both catchy and wonderful.

Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy, but your fly is undone, so zip it maybe. :redface:
If you think that song is annoyingly catchy, you haven't yet heard this.
How is that even remotely a catchy a song?
Many times, I tend to hate a song because it is catchy. For example, I also dislike "Want You Back" by Cher Lloyd.Quote:

Just because she co-oped with Owl City, doesn't make "Call Me Maybe" a decent song.
Why should Owl City make anything decent?Quote:
