Aaron Carter vs. LMFAO - Aaron’s Party Rocking

I left Tumblr open overnight and this was the top post I came back to, and it feels like a reassurance (Thank you, all of you; I’ll get back to you when I can) that everything’s gonna be okay. It’s also fucking awesome.

Unexpectedly excellent at this precise moment.

Woman-beating rage-broccoli Chris Brown lip-synced his single “Turn Up the Music” (without being threatened by Sir Elton John) and danced roughly as well as a third-rate Chicago footwork dancer. He ended his performance by back-flipping off the stage, though sadly not off the earth.

Whatever the merits of “Set Fire to the Rain” as a song—honestly, to me, it’s one of the middling tracks on Adele’s album—it’s fascinating as a chart phenomenon, the culmination of the evolution of pop promotion in the post-single, post-digital era. For nearly a year, all the songs on 21 were laid out like a buffet for listeners. About 700,000 of them gravitated toward “Set Fire” with no outside prodding (not even a cover from the Adele-happy cast of Glee). The label listened and promoted accordingly. Arguably, it’s the first focus-grouped No. 1 song.

I can’t be the first person to see this and think to himself: “But what about Pitbull? Is he banned, too?”

I’m way more amused by dogs barking the Imperial March than I should be. Also, Volkswagen did not pay me to post this. (Though they can, if they wish!)
