Has gotto be one of the worst songs on the year, how the hell did it get to #3 on TOP 40

Just plain, stupid. He sounds like a joker!

Agreed. There was thread on this song a while back which was quite fun

But I have to say I actually think his next single is ok even though it's another rip-off of a classic song

Good INXS sample. Crap the rest of it. That's all the attention I'm paying to that song.

I loved it before it was released, bought all of his tunes from itunes, as soon as it was released into the charts i got sick of hearing it.

I like it but I don't love it, I like it because of the sample and the hook but the verses are a bit boring.

The sample is easily the best thing about the song.

I agree about this song, always have to turn it off when it comes on TV or the radio. It's really stupid and irritating! Sometimes I wonder if this song is for real.

Isn't there some lyric in it that goes, "I'm no eediot - I'm not intermediate" or something like that.
Seriously, has to be among the worst songs of the year.

Meh, another song that takes another sample to base it's song off - originality can feel a little thin on the ground when you have songs like this in the current charts.

You have, is it Wiley with "I Could Never be your Woman", Jason Derulo with "Whatcha say", and "Why don't you" - Gramophonedzie, as some examples, all have samples.

I gotta say im likin' the track quite a bit, yes the lyrics to the song are quite humorous and a lil silly but that just adds to the appeal of the song for me.

This one needs to be added to my ipod!

How is Ndubz pointless? You seem to be confusing 'pointless' with not to your personal taste.
