"F*** You" Is a Hit

...and of course, there are some who say it's name is over the top, but what is you opinion? Is the name appropriate, or does Cee Lo Green deserve jail time for "corrupting our youth"?

I personally am addicted to this song. It's kick-ass. :)

Before I click this link, is it a pop song?

No, it's a soul song... actually sounds a lot like classic Motown, other then the lyrics.

No its a crap song.

I believe the radio version of this song is "Forget you" which is most likely what the children will be hearing, unless they buy the CD or the explicit song of iTunes or something of the like. Then, its the parents fault if their child winds up listening to it.

I find it annoying and repetitive. I guess our music tastes are worlds apart; seeing how I prefer good music. ;)

Edit: Personally I find it more corrupting that kids are listening to stuff like Ke$ha. That girl is a whore.

That's an understatement. She's such a consumerist piece of shit that she puts a doller sign in her name.

It is incredibly repetitive, I liked it at the start, and then it lost me.

The sogn does hold a certain likeness to some of the musical styling of the temptations and such, except the content is significantly different.

Much, much, MUCH better song with the same title.

I like it. I agree with the OP, I could listen to this song all day. The ending of the song isn't that good, though.

I like it. Its probably one of the few songs I've really enoyed this year which has bothered the top of the charts. I quite like the whole theme as well, 'fuck you' is an underused sentiment in soul music and I don't know why.

The original offensive version is so much better.
