You can stand under my Umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)

How the hell is this popular? She sounds like a cavewoman with the Eh's.

What happened to the days where most popular music was good?

I think it's an AT standard to hate anything that the masses like...

Not everyone has to dive into music as deeply as others, for many it's just short and quick entertainment really.

I will say it's better than that crap where they just repeat, "I'm hot because I'm __________" fifty times and then add variation by saying "Your NOT hot because ______" - that's the worst ever, not sure how it's a song.

It's not bad, especially compared to those other "hit' rap songs out there...

I like it! :)

shes popular, songs got a good beat and lyrics are good. basically, you dont know what good music is. when she says eh eh eh she is just vocalising, like when michael jackson makes all those weird noises, its not the greatest part of the song but that doesnt make it a horrible song.

welcome to the suck.

I can't stand that song. Pure garbage. Is she even singing the repeats or is it just a cut and paste in a DAW?

I understand what she's trying to do. I also never said it was horrible. But unlike Michael Jackson's music, her vocalizing doesn't help the song. It hurts it. I mean with Michael you get the vocalization in random spots and he says different things ("Woo" "Ch'monga" "Getyabeatcha" etc.) This is just her going "eh. eh. eh"

oh ok, well all I read from your first post is that the song is not good and should not be popular because she says "eh" 3 times per chorus.
