Summer Song Hopeful #4:
The Big Bang by Rock Mafia
Pros:
- The casual whistling and the repetitiveness of this song make it incredibly catchy. I heard it first on the radio in Las Vegas over Christmastime and it stuck in my head for the entire vacation.
- The beat makes you tap your toe, but it is also interesting to listen to. It's definitely not a 'Ringo' beat.
Cons:
- Released in November 2010, it isn't exactly current, but then again this song still isn't huge as a radio hit in Maine even though in Vegas it was being played every 10th song.
- The content is dicey. The big bang could be a sexual reference, or if you've seen the video featuring Miley Cyrus it could mean a car crash that kills your crazy ex-girlfriend. You might be able to slip this song by grandma, but definitely not the video.
Fun Facts:
- Rock Mafia is a production team/band that has worked with several up and coming artists - including Miley Cyrus, which would explain why she is featured in the video.
- There are rumors of turning the music video into a feature film, also starring Miley. If the music video serves as the trailer the movie is sure to be about how dating Cyrus can turn you into a schizophrenic and should be avoided at all costs, no matter how much eye make-up and tousled beach hair she throws at you.
Does 'The Big Bang' have what it takes to be crowned Summer Song 2011?
