POP SONG REVIEW: "Eenie Meenie" by Sean Kingston and Justin Bieber

Eenie Meenie Miney Mo Lover???

[@jacobmtcastle5741]

'delivered with all the raw sexual energy of a first grader asking his teacher to marry him.' Older Todd's insults were fire.

[@nomobobby]

Todd should've worked a call back in the yummy review. Its lyrics are about as bad as first grader 10 years later

[@fredroberts8275]

He was such an self-righteous smug indie rock music nerd who just started liking pop music. Its so great.

[@nejdalej]

2009: Shawty is a eenie meenie minie mo lover. 2020: Girl you got that yummy yummy yummy yummy Never change Bieber.

[@davidcho6024]

The line from “Yummy” could also fit right into “Eenie Meenie” without much modification.

[@jaimedanielhernandezrios5398]

Actually, change Bieber, we have toleratred your bs for more than a decade already

[@DKdrop]

I feel like he’s gonna make some properly devastating art about his life’s story when he’s in his forties or fifties and has some perspective. Until then, though, I don’t think we’re getting much good out of him.

it's 2019 and it still makes me laugh out loud ^^

[@Musicradio77Network]

Remember what happened in 1971, there was a little known artist called Think where they did “Once You Understand”? They repeated the line over and over and over and it never stops from the beginning right up to the end, and they added spoken word to it. And then, in the late 1970’s, there was “I Gotta Hear The Beat” by Animal Jack and it was produced by none other than Buckner & Garcia would went on to have their only hit “Pac-Man Fever” in 1982.

“Eenie Meenie Miney Mo, Come on girl, let’s shock the show.” That line is from the end of Gregory Abbott’s 80’s classic “Shake You Down”.

Okay, can I just ask, does anyone know why all these songs sing about this Shawty? Who the hell is she, and how the hell did she manage to get into all these damn songs?

[@Jaceblue04]

+TheOmegaMinion It might be a counterpoint to all the songs in the world named after girls.

[@Feamelwen]

I always thought it was actually "shortie". As in, "a small woman". "Shawty" actually sounds stranger. Is that a name that really exists?

[@Momo_Minomo]

Okay, I'm not sure if this is sarcasm or honest confusion from middle class suburban white kids so... Shawty is just a catchall term for an attractive girl. It's the urban equivalent to darling.

[@vinyl_diamond7287]

Pera Medina Actually it means a young and attractive woman

[@hawleyolsen170]

@ULGROTHA It's pretty common for lovers to call each other 'baby', too, which I find just as confusing and nauseating. But didn't old timey people call each other 'pet'? Seems like patronizing and mildly insulting nicknames have been used as endearments for forever.

[@bojanglesfries]

"I listen to it cause you don't want to" should be Todd's new slogan. That's actually why I watch his channel.

[@Thedjbj2]

It's a reference to the Nostalgia Critic slogan "I remember it so you don't have to". This review is from early in his days on TGWTG/Channel Awesome. Todd has since left Channel Awesome and disassociated himself from Doug Walker/the Nostalgia Critic, so he's definitely not gonna use that slogan again.

[@synthiandrakon]

Honestly most of Justin biebers old music falls into a sweet spot for me where it's bad enough to be funny whilst also well produced enough to be listenable. Its a perfect combination which honestly makes me enjoy listening to it

[@jennifermoran1265]

I feel like a pink shirt alone isn't the kiss of death. Straight men can wear pink. It's the 21st century, it's fine. When you combine that with a red belt ...... red shoes ..... and lipstick. It's like he's trying to give Kingston a handicap or something.

[@phoenixfritzinger9185]

I discovered the original goth from like the 80's like The Cure or Siouxie and the Banshees after I got serious about going goth in early high school, like I had a MCR phase later in middle school after my Bieber fever died down and I do like some pop music like Lady Gaga and Grimes (and I actually like Miley in a guilty pleasure kind of way). I'm also into indie and I could just go on and on and on about it but here's just a short list of some of the odder things. TsuShiMaMiRe Sopor Aeternus & The Ensemble Of Shadows Hannah Fury Emilie Autumn and a lot more (plus because I'm a fucking nerd I also listen to Anime soundtracks and Broadway songs)

[@V4Now]

Good for you, Moira.👍🏾 I was far too eclectic as a teenager, and just kinda liked what my parents played and what my friends played. In 2010 when this song Came out i was in college, I went on a total 90s binge (and anime music🤭), best decade for music IMO

[@MorganMaybe]

This song was recorded in 2008, when Justin was 13-14. I never noticed the sexual undertones of the lyrics (haven’t heard the song since I was a kid), but it’s verrrry weird to me now 🫠
