The answer to the burning question, “What happens when you take a Ke$ha song and remove all the references to alcohol and puking?”
What just what just
This is… um, this is like an alternate universe in which “How I Met Your Mother” actually began screening in 2030, and Robin Sparkles was a pop star in the ’10s instead of the ’80s, and this is what she did instead of “Let’s Go to the Mall.”
Or something like that. There’s also like the half-assed girl Bieber aspect, complete with guest spot from creepy older rapper, and the beginning looks like it’s going to turn into Stacie Orrico’s “Stuck,” except then it turns into Mandy Moore’s “Candy” but aggressively G-rated, and god, just watch it. 1000 per cent necessary.

i don’t even know how to react to this so instead i’m going to quote the first conversation angela chase has with jordan catalano in my so-called life:
jordan: this doesn’t seem like a friday.
angela: it’s thursday.
jordan: oh. …are you sure?
angela: well… yesterday was wednesday, so…
jordan: oh. right.
angela: so, that’s how i know.
From how the ONTD link explains it, it sounds more like a gift experience that you may get someone for their birthday or other special event - like glamour photos or a custom song or Paparazzi for a Day or Be A Burlesque Dancer or something like that. (Or you can go and sing with Abba.) I seriously doubt people are using this as demo tracks for the music industry, especially since the performers aren’t writing material.
It sounds like a fun idea; if the songs weren’t so daggy (and maybe written by someone like Andrew of Songs To Wear Pants To) I’d love to have one for kicks!
