Heard this yesterday and tried to hope this wasn't his single. AWFUL.

I was expecting this to be a lot worse based on comments.
It's alright. Nice melody and the beat is kind of good, I hate the lyrics though. I'm sick of all this 2012 talk too. Also the chorus isn't that catchy. Sounds like a Backstreet Boys album track.

"Party like it's the end of the world". OMG - this is awful! I'm also sick to death of the 2012 bullsh*t. It's just another 1999 end of the world hoax!
I'll take Prince "1999" anyday over this trash. lol

Awful. His voice is really grating on this, and this is coming from someone who still loves "Down."

This is worse on second listen. I think reading all the negative opinions here first made me expect THE Worst song of all time, so I was slightly surprised by the better the first time. But again, damn this sucks,
They need to change the lead single asap or else he's done already.

This sounds similar to "Down", but watered down and with some scratches here and there.

This sounds a lot more teenpop than "Down" to me.

lol. It's not the vocals that made the song bad, it's that the subject matter is corny as hell.
And i'm all about nicki minaj right now, she's great and adds to everyone song she's on, but this is getting ridiculous. She's big enough she can start to be choosy and avoid crap like this.

lol, I didnt like this song at first aswell but after a couple of listens its actually really good. It's definatly a grower, who would have thought it with DOWN that was totally rediculous when I first heard it.
But that grew on me aswell. Somethimes the songs we loath when we first hear them "I gotta feeling" "Tik TOK" actually turn into good songs

The real version improves this and I'm sure Minaj will too.... but this is still really corny.

It's kinda catchy but really corny. It should be a hit though, I mean, a casual radio listener would confuse this with any new Usher or Taio track.

This definitely is improved by Nicki's rap, but I still wouldn't be surprised if it flopped completely.

If the video is any good to be truth it could improve the feeling of the song. I like the fact he has taken a RISK not just playing it safe. Risky lyrics!
Look "Down" was pointless if you think "Down Down Down Down Down", but sometimes the most pointless songs which you are not too fond of actually do very well.
I Gotta Feeling Tik Tok Pitbull "I know you want me" BEP - "Boom Boom Pow"

All those songs had gimmicks though. This one doesn't necessaily. We'll see how it does... even if it's a hit I don't see it being a huge smash like "Down." I'd be surprised if this even goes to #10 on the Hot 100 like "Do You Remember?" I think the best this can hope for is Top 20 there.
