Well, I stopped listening to Top 40/pop music several years ago, so I'm liable to listen to any of it with a critical ear.

Didn't like it. The beat was okay but didn't like the melody or her singing. Don't see the talent. And I thought the girl looked druggie-nasty in the video.

Rate this song? Sure...it's AWFUL.

Ke$ha is glamorizing drinking, going missing, dressing like a **** and she looks like a juvenile crack-*****. What's good about this song, or this so-called "artist"? Is this what music has come to today and is this supposed to be an example to our young people? This song is vomit-worthy and a sad representation of today's culture, i.e. young people drinking themselves into an oblivion and girls whoring themselves out at a way too early age.

This song is nasty, Ke$ha is nasty and putting a dollar sign in your name is the height of tackiness. Hopefully, this joke is a one hit wonder and will disappear from people's memories soon enough. Damn, I thought Lady Gaga was bad until I heard this awfulness.

Garbage. Ke$ha = Miley Cyrus on crack.

......and obviously, judging by the fact that several people have repped my post in the space of less than half an hour, I get the impression that many other Americans also feel that this song is completely depraved and wrong. As Americans, have we stopped listening to actual lyrics, just for the sake of a catchy tune? I listen to lyrics and if I don't understand them due to poor/synthesized vocals, I look them up online. Therefore, the lyrics of this so-called song absolutely disgust me. It's a girl who glorifies getting drunk and disappearing....way to go. Although she's 22/23, she looks a lot younger, so that's another bad example to teenage girls who may wish to follow suit. What saddens me even more is that people actually part with their hard earned cash to buy this crap. What happened to music, really???

I loved it from the first time I heard it. Being a male in my 40s I'm not in her typical demographic, but I have always appreciated good pop songs. Music of this genre doesn't need to be taken too seriously..it should be fun to listen to and this song is.

Does anybody remember an 80s song called "Cars That Go Boom"? her voice reminds me of that song for soime reason.

Some record company genius thought the time was right to manufacture an unabashedly slutty meth head popster. Cue the focus groups, cue the session programmers, cue the photographers, cue the marketing blitz.

Don't read much into the fact that it's "#1." That was the arrangement. A whole lotta people just want to be told what to listen to and the record companies are more than happy to oblige by setting up all the parts.
