'Friday' Removed From YouTube

2011-06-18 by DaveyBoy EMERITUS | 92 Comments
Those looking to re-live the video for what many dubbed "The worst song ever" will only be met by a countless number of parodies, since Rebecca Black has been forced to remove her video for the viral sensation that was the song 'Friday'.

Watched over 200 million times on the video sharing website, the removal of the infamous video comes due to a legal dispute with the song's writers; LA based record label ARK Music.

Legal arguments over the track's rights have been ongoing, with a spokesperson for the singer confirming that they submitted a 'take-down notice' earlier this week.

The dispute is thought to centre around Ark's decision to list 'Friday' as a "rental" video on the website, with viewers being charged to watch it. This decision is thought to have angered Black's representatives, who then pulled the video.

They've been down for so long. Obviously, the Chinese government is against them and has thusly been holding mx hostage so he can't fix them. If we embrace communism, they'll let him go.

They've been down for six months? I really haven't been here but damn, that's pretty unimpressive. I think the longer they're down the more they should become news, to be fair. Being down for maintenance for a month is one thing, but half a year...

Beating a dead horse, I assume, haha. I just got acquainted with the horse though, you guys have been fucking it since January apparently.
