    Default So Bieberfever may have come to an end...

    "It holds the Guinness World Record for the most "liked" song ever - currently with a little under 5.4m likes on YouTube.

    Previously, Justin Bieber's 2010 teenybopper hit Baby held the record for the most YouTube views."

    Atta'boi!

    The sad thing is, most of the views will most probably people insulting him. I get that not everyone likes his music (I myself only like one of his songs, and it was a sample of another song), but I hate how much hate he gets...

    Oh Psy... Enjoy your moment now. In a few months you will be doomed to One-Hit Wonder Hell.

    I have never understood why people feel the need to attack the artist, instead of the music. What has Bieber ever done to anyone? He's as harmless as can be. His music is a donkey serenade, though.

    What, really? I've never heard anyone say anything negative about him. I mean, I know there are always people who will trout all over anything popular without giving it much thought, but I must be living in a bubble.

    I disagree. Like Shlup, I rarely see anyone with a negative word about Psy. And even though Gangnam Style has a lot of dislikes, the like/dislike ratio is still very high.

    I was totally part of the "OMG WE NEED TO BEAT BIEBER" crowd and told everyone I knew to watch Gangnam Style for that reason alone.

    I feel kind of lame about it in retrospect.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    I do think people rail him on abit too much (much the same with the internet railing against Nickelback) but in my opinion his music is trout and I think he dresses like a muppet pretty much everytime he's out in public. Also:

    Justin Bieber doesn't know what German is. - YouTube



    TBH I think he's a Lindsey Lohan style trainwreck waiting to happen. Being manufactured that young and flung as high as he's gone - feel sorry for him when that bubble bursts because that's a one way trip to China town.

    I was talking about Justin...

    To be honest, I never understood why everyone turned on Lindsey either, what she did was pretty minor, and the kind of thing that shows her own flaws rather than an excuse to hate her. Despite this, unlike Justin, I have absolutely no idea what Lindsey did that made her famous.

    Perhaps it's the whole idea that because Bieber is younger than most of us, he is exponentially more annoying. Because lets face it, there's nothing more annoying than someone far younger than you earning alot more.

    I want to see a study of youtube views adjusted for increase in internet connection, controlling for multiple views, and adjusted for population inflation

    these sorts of records are made to be broken just by virtue of waiting a short time
