Party with Jesus


LMFAO's Party Rock Anthem has become a pretty popular song these days, even despite the fact that the song came out in like March. It's part of the pop music culture, which a lot of people may hate, but even with that I feel like you have to admit that in this video it’s pretty creatively put together and really just draws out a happy, energetic mood in people. The only position that this video really argues you into is to liking LMFAO, which is a pretty obvious position the band and record company would like you to be in.

One subject I found in the video (which I just thought to be completely hilarious) was a character dressed as Jesus dancing at 5:48. This really had hardly any point being in the video other than just to be funny and therefore possibly making a few more people like it. In all reality, it probably just hurt the video in terms of how many people like it as some hardcore religious people might just find it offensive. It was funny enough that they decided to leave it in and even blinged out their Jesus figure.
