You know, for someone who is supposed to be such a pop superstar, dear Justin Bieber hasn’t really released that much music at all. He had that first album that came out two years ago, then that Christmas monstrosity from this past holiday season, and that’s pretty much it. That’s not a lot, is it? I really don’t think so.
But everything is about to change, you guys. This is the year of the New Bieber, and it is being ushered in with this very first single, “Boyfriend.” And it’s … well, it’s something. It’s quite a departure from his previous masterpieces – “Baby” and “One Less Lonely Girl,” to name a few pieces of art – but I think it’s going to work out well for him. Really, with lyrics such as “swag swag swag on you, chillin’ by the fire while we eatin’ fondue” and “I could be your Buzz Lightyear, fly across the globe,” there’s no way he could fail.
Ok, honestly, I was completely sure this was a joke when I went to look for the video. I was like “there’s absolutely no way that this is a serious song, somebody threw something together, Amber Tamblyn style, and I can respect that, but this isn’t the new Bieber song.” But it is. I double checked on the iTunes store and everything. This is an actual song that is being released, and not as a prank. That’s really hard for my brain to understand.
But hey, it’s “Boyfriend,” aren’t you pumped?! 2012 is definitely going to be Justin Bieber’s year, huh?
He’s extremely annoying and at the same time becoming dated and lazily repetitious
