5'd cos Blue Da Ba De is the greatest song of all time period full fucking stop.

"Blue (Da Ba Dee)" is a song that will never leave anybody's head, no matter the gap in years or time overall; the inane lyrics, that unforgettable chorus, and the Auto-Tune on Jeffrey Jey's voice is one gigantic memory harder than bricks - and especially even tougher to suppress. If for some inexplicable reason you can't memorize any part of the track, then I implore the simple-minded to see what Todd in the Shadows has to say about it. Europop is unsurprisingly danceable, as its catchiness seems to know no limits. But after a while, Italian act Eiffel 65 will tire you out. They're all style without any of the substance or grace, and for a vocal minority, the material is pretty friggin' dense. For instance, as ridiculously fun as a number like "My Console" can be, I'm detracting points solely because the "brains" of this triad didn't mention Crash Bandicoot or Twisted Metal anywhere in the lyrical content, but he *does* receive a strawberry-coated brownie for name dropping Tekken 3. Is it any wonder now why I grew up on the Nintendo 64 instead of the PS1?

Blue is a genuinely catchy song. Everything else? Well, meh. It's all pretty much trash. They takes good european techno artist ideas (Ladytron and Miss Kittin ftw), and craft it into some weird mainstream pop album, that doesnt have the strengths of either but the weaknesses of well everything. It's boring, overdone, too intricate for its own good, lyrically retarded, and musically you can only dance to it for about 5 minutes. Then you kill yourself. I don't make the rules folks, God does. God hates this album.
