the song at the top of this week's iTune's list is Carly Ray Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe". the song itself is pretty cute, just about a girl trying to flirt with this other guy, but the music video is HILARIOUS. i can't... i mean, she does all of this crazy stuff to get his attention, and the guy turns out to be gay! well, i guess it would be funnier if the guy himself wasn't so good looking., but it was still pretty funny. she's fanning herself at the window, singing to him in the end, and trying to get his attention by washing her car like three feet away from him. i didn't like the song very much before, but after seeing the video, i might have fallen in love with it - and Carly.

Because "somebody that I used to know" is STILL the top song in iTunes, I’m going to be writing about the second best song out right now, called “Payphone” by maroon 5. The song is about a breakup between two people who though they had it all. You know, a typical heartbreak song. They talk about how they miss what they once were, but cant go back to it because it wouldn’t work. So basically, just another sob story about how fairy tales are “total bullsh*t” because they didn’t get one. Sorry if I sound like it’s a bad song. The song’s great, but when seven out of the ten top songs on iTunes are either about love or heartbreak, the stories start to repeat themselves. The music video is pretty cute though. It shows how the couple was so perfect together but now they don’t have that paradise. You see pictures in black and white of them so in love but when the screen goes back to color, you see how sad the two people are. Eventually though, they throw away the pictures and walk away on an old road. I’d definitely recommend the song if you haven’t had enough of that breakup young love music on your iPod by now.
