Do we really need a 'Thanksgiving' song? (apparently, since this one had 5 million hits in a week)
November 13, 2012
Remember the wildly popular viral video from Rebecca Black called "It's Friday?" (A clip that was never actually played/posted on TheBlaze.)
We think we've found something more vapid than that song. Something called 'It's Thanksgiving."
If the song has a similar feel to Ms. Black's one-hit-wonder, you can probably thank producer Patrice Wilson. Mr. Wilson co-wrote "Friday, Friday" and is listed as the producer and writer of this mindless ditty about Thanksgiving.
While you are watching the video, take note of a few things that stood out to me:
- Where are the parents? Only one adult is seen in the entire clip is likely Patrice Wilson.
- At least the kids seem to be saying a prayer before their Thanksgiving meal.
- The video sexualizes a very young girl. Nicole Westbrook she sings, "We're gonna have a good time" as she is shown sitting on her bed.
As stated in the opening. The video already has five million hits.
