That was quite awesome.

Funny how choir dude's voice obviously gets tired around 45 seconds in because he probably doesn't have to yell like that often.

Was that supposed to be better, or worse than the original ?
 
2009-06-10 06:28:06 PM
An a capella cover of a parody. I'm also going to go with "meh."

That was great. But the T-Pain chick looked like she just came off the "Night Trap" set.

Man, that was not good.

And not to go all Studman69 on everyone, but that chick was stretching the definitition of cute. Not to it's breaking point, but streched nonetheless.
 
2009-06-10 09:13:33 PM
That was bad. 10 fewer people in the background and it might have been bearable.
 
2009-06-10 09:20:11 PM
A bad acapella cover of a bad song. We are lucky it did not form a black hole and swallow civilization.
 
2009-06-10 09:29:03 PM
meh.

Just because I'm saying "meh" right along with everyone else doesn't mean I wouldn't spank the little A-Pain girl.
 
2009-06-10 09:54:26 PM
Whatsup with 'meh'? I think it's pretty bad ass :D

As an ensemble piece it wasn't really very tight.

A capella groups covering "hip" songs should be added to the list of "Stuff White people like."

TrevorValentine: A capella groups covering "hip" songs should be added to the list of "Stuff White people like."

Not THIS white person.

Aside from the fact that I usually don't like covers, I have no idea what this original song sounds like and from the sounds of it I really don't want to. If your vocabulary is so limited that every sentence needs several swear words in it to make the rhythm or rhymes come out right, you have no business writing music. I've got no problem with occasional swearing (if I did, I probably wouldn't be on FARK) but that's just ridiculous. Also, what's the big deal about being on a boat? I know it's fun and all that but is it a big enough deal that you need to write a bad song about it?

along with a +1.

This stuff is just getting boring, cute girl or no.
White kids singing the words 'motherfarker' and 'shiat' just isn't that impressive.

It's finals week, my face feels like it is melting off from studying so much and these guys are doing an acapella act? I chose the wrong major.

I fail to grasp the overwhelming appeal of this song. Oh yes, I keep forgetting...EVERYONE IS A FARKING MORON. Seriously, what am I missing? Why did this song attract ANY positive attention whatsoever?

I've got a new song I'm writing right now. It goes something like this..."I'm takin' a shiat! I'm taking a farking shiat! It's a big farking shiat, yo, a smelly shiat yo! Gonna farkin' shiat that shiat, yo!"

I should be famous by the end of the week with this masterpiece.
 
2009-06-11 02:51:23 AM
Umm, what's the black chick doing in the background? White people have no excuse but she should have better things to do.

I guess I'm officially old, because I just wanted to start smacking those kids, and suddenly realized that this is the pool of talent I'm going to be dipping into in a couple of years when I need to hire new employees.

A buddy and I used to make fun of crap like this - to the point of leaving voice mails of our "gansta" rap:

(insert white guy beat box attempt)
Farkin' mutha farker!
Farkin' mutha FARK!
Farkin' mutha farkaaaaaaahhhhh!
Farkin' mutha fark!
(insert more white guy beat box attempts)

/Sounded better that 90% of all rap

Only if you collaborate with T-Pain that is. Seriously did the point of the "I'm on a boat" video escape most of the population?

That's what I was asking. I couldn't even stand watching most of it. When I ask anyone else about it, they don't seem to know what exactly it is about, all they know is that they think it's a cool song. No one seems to be able to explain the point of the song. I assumed it was satire, but so many people just like the song that I am not so sure anymore...

The point of T-Pain's existance got by me, so yeah, I guess it's possible the video did too.
