Have you ever noticed that the thing that annoys middle school kids the most is the thing they talk about (or sing) the most. It is only third period and I think I have heard Rebecca Black's Friday about five hundred times. I have heard girls singing, boys singing, teachers singing. I have heard the original version and a parody of the song, as well as 40 other versions. And, despite all this singing, every kid has come in saying "I hate that song. It's so annoying". OK, so then why are you singing it? Is this a new middle school thing---sing songs that annoy you? Or, is it that it's Friday and singing this song is the only way middle school kids know how to find it on the calendar?
I happen to like the song. Catchy little tune. Totally age inappropriate for me. Seems relatively clean. Then I realized why teachers love this song----
It's Friday, Friday
Gotta get down on Friday
Everybody's lookin' forward to the weekend, weekend
And . . . . . now I can't get it out of my head!
