  • What I hate most about this song is that KIDS listen to it. I'm talking little girls between the ages of five and teen (I've heard a seven year old sing this song). WTF parents, wtf...

  • I like you :)

  • I'm not bothered by girls with high sex drives, but Ke$ha's just gross.

  • I love the mom at the beginning who drops the pancakes, she looks at Ke$ha like "OH MY GOD, you're the girl My son (or daughter) brought home and slept with last night, oh Sweet Jesus NOOOO!

  • Mick Jagger? Judging from all the guys she's grinding on in the video, apparently her criteria for a man is he look like Sewage Joe from Parks and Rec.

  • @dackattac You win the internets, sir.

  • Did you hear new Ke$ha hit named "Dick duck" ?

  • Town, lown, bown, clown, shown, rown, cown, bown, slown, sown, mown, pown, down....a few of those were real words and it took me three seconds pop music. Down isn't that hard to rhyme! AHHHHHH!

  • @Zero12900 sorry, in another few seconds I also came up with crown, brown and wown (in pop music it could be made into a word). Also...AHHHH!

  • Oh wow, apparently she actually IS from the Valley. Go figure.

  • I have mixed feelings about Ke$ha's music (and her name, because it sucks writing a dollar sign in her name when mentioning her in a paper and then try explaining it to a teacher), but I understand where you're coming from with this review. Also, can anyone tell me the name of the song at 2:27? I remember the video, but I don't remember the artist or the song. It's been so long. Anyways, Todd, great video. :)

  • This is about the only Kesha song I can stand and it's still pretty bad.

  • I always imagine Todd being horribly disfigured.

  • @WelcomeGhostsIV LOL, the phantom of the popera.

  • I swear at 6:23 when he says "barf me out" or whatever I hear the Steam chat plink noise

  • Todd in the $hadows?

    Sorry.

    At least Ke$ha is having a good time. We can't doubt that, at least. That gives her more credit than most people who make this kind of music in my books.

    I hate this kind of music, can you tell?

  • @Maiyrhia How does her having fun give her any credit?

  • 1. turn on closed captions.

    2. click "Transcribe Audio"

    3. go to 4:08

  • @TheAutisticGuitarist Dissatisfied ho. lol.

  • But Paris Hilton was famous.. kinda.. before hand... well kinda

  • @9000tommygun

    Ke$ha may be a musical non-entity, but she still counts, unfortunately, as a celebrity.

    In my previous comment, I just thought I would build on the Fight Club theme started in the video: "I thought you were going to a night club, not a fight club."

  • The beginning lyrics sound like a Rebecca Black song.

  • Does P. Diddy ever wake up feeling like Ke$ha?

  • YOU are the most ENTERTAINING Music Critic I know, and I dont know many but you are awesome!

  • Todd, I love you. I do <3

  • Does anyone else notice that the chorus sounds kinda like the Rolling Stones Start Me Up?

  • Ke$ha is what Britney would have been like in '98 had the record company not concealed her true trashiness. (Which, as we all know, would become painfully obvious a few years later.)

  • Yes, boys and girls.

    That is Simon Rex driving the car.

  • XD Is she yodeling?! Wow that's lame.

  • brushing your teeth with a bottle of jack thats damn sexy for an alchoholic like me

  • tehehehe? shut up.

  • Who ever wrote this song was secure in the knowledge that some people will listen to any lyrics, no matter how bad they are, to get to a good chorus. 

  • @Sewblon Also known as the 'flo rida song writing method.' See 'Club can't handle me'

  • I don't double-check. Add a NOT in there. e.e

  • "Like, omg! Ke$ha is like, the best rolemodel ever!". Ok, I know she isn't, but I swear to god that every girl I know (I'm 17 btw) acts like she is!

  • I LOVED the How I Met Your Mother clip in there.

  • Jack Daniels is the best mouth wash ever, nothing cleans your esophougus like 30% proof whiskey!

  • I'm still surprised she hasn't choked to death on her own vomit yet.

  • Svetlana Loboda sounds similar...

  • I had two girls in my art class playing this song via speakers EVERY DAMN DAY!

    Kind of hard to make a 3d sketch while your mind is full of images of a dance/fight clun.

  • ROBIN SPARKLES 3:35

  • Tik Tok, wow, whoever wrote this song must have been rolling- stoned.

  • Tik Tok: Bcuz por litracy iz kool

  • The "wrong person" to listen to this song... I think I actually know people like that... They even talk in a similar way to this lady... *shudder*

  • I've been waiting for someone to make the Fergie connection...

    Seriously, the only things seperating them are a few years, a dollar sign, and that obnoxious dialect alledgedly from the valley.

  • Lol turn on the subtitles they made me lol xD

  • I really don't see the problem here. The song is fun and I like to listen to it when Im having a good time. I dont see how anyone can like to listen to a song but at the same time think its a bad one. Thats never going to make any sense to me. lyric-wise I dont really care. "Smooth criminal" Is one of my favorites and I still to this day cant understand half of what Michael's saying and I still love it. And the way she spells her name with a "$" is nothing more then a harmless gimmick.

  • @SSJ3MJ

    I agree. The song works fine as a dance song. It's not a bad song at all. The singer is another matter. Her whole image scrapes at your nerves until they bleed raw.

  • @littlekuribohimposte Yeah. Im not going to debate much on her image lol. There are artist out there that I cant stand image-wise but I will give there songs a chance.

  • I have a love/hate relationship with this song

    part of me goes: UUUHHHGGGGGHHH I can feel my brain cells dying!

    but part of me goes: OMFG I LOVE THIS SONG ITS SO CATCHY AND FUN *dances like an idiot*

  • Yeah, the girls that go "Yeah! This is my song!" live down the hall from me and blast Ke$ha every freaking day. So . . . much . . . stupid . . . 0_e

  • @confusedpanda42 Be thankful they chose Tik Tok as the Kesha song to play. Every other song is worse.

  • Hey todd, you should abbreviate your username so it would be TITS.

  • @brendanman30 A THOUSAND THUMBS UP FOR THEE!!!!

  • @brendanman30

    I'm surprised he hasn't yet... Well, maybe he would if his abbreviation would be TITTIES

  • @brendanman30 Well, on TGWTG.com Todd's acronymed as "TIS", so that won't be happening soon...

  • Question: Why does Ke$ha spell her name with a dollar sign in it? Is it to add bling to her artist's name, or she really forgot to get a spell checker?

  • @VectorOmega Apparently it's supposed to be "ironic", and symbolic of how she doesn't care about if she has money or not (according to a quote on Wikipeida). But, let's face it, she just thought it looked cool, then made up a stupid explanation to keep from looking like a moron. Because there is no way that Ke-dollar sign-hah is capable of irony.

  • @VectorOmega Probably a bit late, but Ke$ha stated that she added the dollar sign to her name to be "ironic" since she's doing it for the money.

  • The best part was "Lets's go to the mall", by Robin Sparkles.

  • The Mick Jagger bit is hilarious! I had the same reaction when I heard it the first time.

  • I noticed the upside down flag in her video. Boooooo . ..

  • 8:32-8:34

    I doubt even Dr. Demento would find this song remotely funny. I remember listening to this song on radio when it first came out, and I don't remember laughing with it or at it.

  • lol look at that toe! She may not want to go back to that pedicure place because I think she got flesh eating disease

  • He didn't mention that if you play this at the same time as Katy Perry's "California Gurls", you're practically listening to the same tune with a different singer & lyrics.

  • @Aishizu1 That's because at the time this video was posted, "California Gurls" wasn't a song yet.

  • Mosh pit to dance music. It's fucking awesome. May also explain her liking Mick Jagger. XD

  • I like Ke$ha though beacuse of how catchy her songs are i even liked the you spined my head right round thing :(

  • You piano better than Ke$ha exists. Props.

  • Wake up in the morning feeling like P. Shitty...

  • Ma$e...ha, I think Curren$y is a better example

  • the saddest thing about all of his reviews, is that they are actually more accurate then most of the mainstream reviewers who take those shitty pop songs like candy and get paid for it, while good reviewers like todd are banished to the shadows.

  • Well, I find Fergie quite brain damaged, to say the truth...And, to be honest, I like Ke$ha better than many female pop singers nowadays. I mean, she's just as vapid and empy as everyone else, but at least she still has got some vestige of self-respect and her videos are not as self-humiliating as... Katy Perry's or Fergie's. Also, she doesn't try to be pseudo-gay-friendly as does Lady Gaga.

  • @Phastolph For real? If anything she's got the least self-respect out of any artist today, even less than Katy Perry & Fergie.

  • @DrGnockerz Oh, come on! All Perry and Fergie ever do is roll on the floor and rub their arses against some guy desperatly pleading for cocks (sometimes, explicitly)... All Kesha does is sing (horribly, I must admit) about having fun, being drunk and playing around with everything, including cocks... but then she's not crawling and pleading for anything. I mean, not that it's good, but, it's much less self-humiliating.

  • @Phastolph You have clearly never listened to the lyrics to Blah Blah Blah.

  • @NickoliLion Actually I have. Not that it's a good song, but in it Kesha's not begging for cocks, She's kind of ordering them... She clumsily tries to state that she's in controll of the situation. She does it terribly, but at least she tries.

  • @Phastolph Katy Perry doesn't plead for cocks in all of her songs. Don't know about Fergie, though

  • Have you heard the remix/parody version of this song by Rucka Rucka? It's called 'Go Cops, and has some of the most hilarious lyrics i've ever heard. And unusually for a remix/parody song, it is FAR superior to this sleazy valley girl trash.

  • You had Frank Zappa in your video.

    AWESOME!

  • i like the mix lyric version about cops

  • you are so frigging licky u didnt actually hear that song...GOD!

  • KE$HA. WHY U NO USE LETER S ?!?!

  • One thing to point out: the valley girl accent is a name for a californian accent. Other then that, hilarious Todd.

  • @BurningEclipse77 Maybe in SoCal, but up here in the Bay Area we don't really sound like that...okay we do use hella and like a lot, but we are not that bad.

  • @Asushlo I get my knowledge from TV Tropes about that fact so I don't know about where exactly, I'm Kentuckian.

  • @BurningEclipse77 California's a big place. And TVTropes, unfortunately, isn't always the most reliable of websites.

  • @Asushlo TvTropes just keeps you procrastination for hours on end. Believe me I speak from experience.

  • Ahhh... Frank Zappa. Nice dude. <3

  • Comment removed

  • The song is good, but some lyrics were really bad.

  • I believe you have the same type of keyboard as I do :D

  • THANK YOU TODD! I hated the destruction of You Spin Me Right Round! I'm glad SOMEONE agrees with me!

  • THANK YOU TODD! I hated the destruction of You Spin Me Right Round! I'm glad SOMEONE agrees with me!

  • Ew! Ke$ha really presents herself as a slob! Slobs really do come in all shapes and sizes!

  • I put on this song when I vacuum the apartment.....no wait, I put on the Vacuum whenever this song comes on!

  • It's irrelevant but... 404 people like that. Can't find them they might have been removed

  • Ah, I needed a laugh. Too bad I've got to listen to another song to wash this one from my mind.

  • Ke-Dollar-ha is the bar skank of pop singers, she is an even more vapid female version of Flo Rida.

  • The character of Ke-dollar sign-ha (assuming she isn't that way IRL) in her videos is every I despise in women and people in general. Every time I hear this pos unwillingly, because some idiots think this is suitable for the human ear, I have to get checked for STDs because of how trashy the subject matter is.

  • You should see her high school picture... Her name also probably was an issue in high school, where they really did call her Ketchup. :/

  • Tyler Durden: If you could fight any celebrity, who would it be?

    Me: I'd fight Ke$ha.

  • @seanmatthewrosen Ke$ha's a celebrity?

  • @seanmatthewrosen nahh ill beat up justin beiber or maybe GOT IT jenna rose

  • Is it just me or does she look like ashely tisdale.......sorry about spelling

  • This is the kind of girl i skin alive and leave to die.

  • I, for one, would LOVE a podcast about The Tick hosted by Todd.

  • "hey ron, u see those girls over there, will i here they got SWAGGER''..."They got swagger huh, well u know me, im always on the lookout for a girl with swagger, I just hope we're ugly, misshaped, and frog-like enough for her" HAHAHAHAHAHA I LOL'ED MY ASS OFF. Todd i tip my hat to you lol.

  • Dude, why all the hate on Mick Jagger?

  • @JenxRodwell

    He's jealous ;)

  • @JenxRodwell Who says he hates Mick Jagger? He's just explaining that Mr. Jagger isn't exactly the kind of guy a girl in her teens or 20s would fantasize about.

  • @DrGnockerz

    I uh know that....*sigh* sarcasm really doesn't transfer well to text.

  • @JenxRodwell Ooops, sorry. :(

  • Mmm... Mick Jagger.

  • I thought when you woke up in a bath it was because there was a house party the night before?

    From the looks of that actually quite tidy house, Ke$ha got drunk by herself the night before while her parents were in bed.

    Wow. How cool.. -.-

  • About that valley girl thing being "cool" now, it kinda is. Almost all the girls I know sound like that, with the word "like" being said unnecessarily too much. It's sad. Now, the guys are doing that.

  • @pat4luigi13

    That's like pathetic. In all seriousness, I have an ENORMOUS amount of ire against the excessive and misuse of "like" in my generations speech from pop-culture.

  • @ninjawraith17 I agree.

  • Ugh, it was a very depressing day when I found out that Ke$ha's debut album, Animal, went platinum. I almost started to cry. Almost.

  • Yeah, this song's pretty catchy, but I prefer Kylie Minogue's Love At First Sight (the one it sort of ripped off), because it's better lyrically and has a more colourful, varying synth background (plus better vocals IMHO). But to be fair, both songs were very fun to listen to over and over when they were most popular. Great review!! :D

  • @ZafiroRiverSpirit

    The Kylie Minogue song had dignity at least. I remember listening to it on the radio in the early 00s and liking it.

  • I've long since come to the conclusion she-be-trollin' and that she is in fact the prophecied AntiGaga.

  • What's ironic about the song is that it's really not that bad, but song by the wrong person. I've actually seen several covers on youtube that are much better.

  • @PsychoKrazyTime Forgot to say, I totally agree with this video 100%.

  • Todd actually makes this song sound good in the beginning of this video ... That's really something.

  • WOW its like fergie... only with sever brain damage... SO ITS LIKE FERGIE!!!!

  • @Tonman50 I think you might have "sever" brian damage if you spell it like that

  • @SamECircle Oh my god I spelled it brian. *slaps self in face repeatedly*

  • @SamECircle Sever brain damage is even worse.

  • haha great review. that song sucks.

  • I love Ke-dollar sign-ha!

  • thi$ $ong i$ bull$hit

  • i HATE girls like her! its like JUST STFU AND GTFO BEFORE I KICK YOUR SCRAWNY ASS!!!

  • Tik Tok: becuze poor litracy is kewl.

  • @TheShinyHitmontop don't forget Ke$ha, im sure thats spelld rong 2

  • @TheShinyHitmontop Indeed. The party don't start .I think my inner Grammar nazi has just tried committing suicide

  • @AlSidre Any mistakes can be attributed to severe brain damage due to being forced to listen to this song too many times. Her valley girl accent and her non existent grammar skills, make me consider ramming my head into a brick wall every time this song comes on.

  • @TheShinyHitmontop lol linkara

  • I got better chops

  • Hey Todd, if you can believe it, her other singles are even WORSE. Blah Blah Blah is one of the worst songs ever.

  • @Deliciousfruit233 He already did a review of that noise (I refuse to call it a song), it's on TGWTG.

  • tee hee he he hee, shut up. lol best review

  • whats very sad is my ten year old sis sings this and loves it..........yeeeaaaahhh.......­i don't see a bright future for this generation of kids.

  • WOW! It's like Fergie... except with severe brain damage... ...so it's like Fergie!

  • Fuck yea Zappa reference!

  • lmfao about the junk comment

  • What's really off about Ke$ha... I did a little digging and found out that she's actually SMART. Like, her SAT scores were higher than mine (and mine were not low.) She apparently says that most of her image IS a joke, although she is pretty much a real valley girl.

    But this song is still unbelievably catchy, and that won't EVER change. 8D

    On a completely unrelated side note, I think I know how to make that shirt she's wearing at the top of the video.

  • @StaticFactory23 who cares about that, her music sucks!! I have a pony, but, does that really matter?

  • @theperfectmorning Oh yeah, I'm not saying that her being smart really MATTERS in her music career, or that it makes my opinion of this song anything above "just this side of tolerable"... I just thought it was sort of surprising.

  • yeah, sorry, didnt mean to b a jerk, man,lol.

  • This song sucks, I don't like the rythm that much, though there's a metal version that fixes almost everything(except the voice, goddamnit I hate her voice).

  • who's furgie?

  • @CDDCX that chick from the black eye peas who had a short solo career a few years ago.

  • the album cover photo is even more unflattering

  • I have yet to find a single reviewer who doesn't comment on that Mick Jagger line.

    Nice review.

  • Frank Zappa is 1000 times better than Ke$ha. Kesha, do you honestly think I have time to put a dollar sign when I'm typing hate comments?!?!!

  • Bad Voice+Bad Lyrics+Bad Song All Around=Why is she popular???

  • @ninjawraith17 They put it everytime in the radio and also music was do delluted before that people got used to it, so basically this song is just another hit that will be forgotten.

  • I was hoping you'd clip into that Frank Zappa Valley girl song..you did not disappoint. :P

  • GAAAH! HER VOICE!! 

  • lol "too hard to find  a ryhme for down?....apaarently.."

  • actually i asked my sis who mick jagger was and she didnt know lol

  • @ThreeSpheres909 lol my friend thought it was micheal jackson XD

  • @ThreeSpheres909 Blasphemy I say!!! Mick Jaggar is the front man for the Rolling Stones.

  • To me, Kesha (yeah, I refuse to put a dollar sign where an S belongs) is the junk food of music. She's bad, but as long as you reconize that, and listen to more "healthy" music as well, it's all good.

  • tumbs up for Zappa!

  • The first time I heard this song was at work over the Muzak while doing busywork. I looked at my friend who adores pop music and asked "has she even seen Mic Jagger?"

  • How I feel about Kesha (I refuse to spell her name with a dollar sign) is the about the equivalent about how I feel about Hitler.

    Those aren't terms I use lightly people, I wish this girl to die a slow painful death.
