Rebecca Black is the name on everyone’s lips at the moment, but for all the wrong reasons. If you haven’t heard of her, she’s a 13 year old from California and released her song “Friday” a couple of weeks ago. To date, the video has amassed over 35.5 million YouTube views!

The song has all the right current features to make it a pop hit – a teenage unknown American, Auto-tune, a rap, catchy pop tune with simple(!) lyrics. Such lyrical mastery as:
