To be fair, the song is from well before his time.

It follows that he would know much more about contemporary pop music than traditional carols since his whole background is one of a kid making videos of himself on YouTube singing pop songs at a very young age. He's probably never actually sung Santa Claus is Coming to Town anywhere other than the green room of the Today Show.

In a way, this is what we're bound to see much more of as people try to reach fame by focusing laser-like on a very narrow skill set that is marketable at the expense of general training that would provide the background and framework within which such skills would flourish naturally. We see this with American Idol and other reality shows which try to turn everyday shmoes into superstars when these contestants have very little to bring to the table except perhaps a natural gift for singing.

These days of instant fame have probably started something very bad for our culture. It cheapens and beggars this generation.

Well that explains why the lyrics to his songs are so repetitive. He can't remember them otherwise.

Cut him some slack - he's had a difficult month.

Yes, it is.

Is he really a Pop Superstar? I thought he was a pre-teen masturbatory aid. There's one every generation.

You don't know much about Beiber do ya? Say what you want about his musical style (trust me, I hate it as much as anyone), but Beiber is a very talented musician for whom singing is a secondary pursuit that happened to pay off. He's got skills, believe it or not. Both he and Lady Gaga are both way more togwether than they show.


/got it hurt to write that.

I guess as a Canuckian I should apologize for the Bieb - and Nickelback performing at that Lion's football game - BUT you 'merkiuns share some of the blame for hiring these ass-clowns.

So that's how low the maturity bar has been set? A "singer" decides to actually "sing?"

At least he tries, unlike Muse (new window)

He was on David Letterman last night and I watched just to see if he'd address the paternity test stuff. He did, for about two seconds. (Agreed with Dave with he smelled a weasel, and then said that he was famous, and people would do stuff like that.) That was about it. He wasn't on long.

Seemed like a pleasant enough young man. His pants were pulled up.

well, that's what I get for posting before coffee--"agreed with Dave when he said that he smelled a weasel."

Recent comments on Popbiatch suggest otherwise, that's he's gone into "don't you know who I am" stage.

He is truly history's greatest monster.

Pleasant enough yes, but dumb as a bag of rocks. Seriously, you're 17 years old and can't name all 7 continents? Sheesh.

/durr, Canada?

I just wonder if (s)he is going to breast feed that crotch fruit?

It's a teenage pop sensation, but that's not important right now.

/this is now an Airplane thread.

To be fair, he *is* from Hell, and they don't usually sing cheerful songs there.

/someone needs to shave him bald, paint him green and scream "MARTIAN ATTACK!"
//or wear a Bieber mask and hold up a jewelry store, i really don't care

That's right, Mike Patton, biatches. You want a talented singer, you got 'em.

Pink boxer shorts? How masculine. I bet he and Selena take turns doing each other's hair and applying moisturizer before going to bed.

At least you know his agent or whoever isn't dressing him. He does make some bizarre and unflattering fashion choices.

My fiance heard teenage girls screaming from 2 blocks away on her way to work Wednesday. On closer inspection she saw them bursting into tears when he hit certain lyrics ... the ones he remembered anyway.

He still looks like a lesbian, but now a different kind of lesbian. Maybe someday he'll look like a lesbian with a beard.
