Review The Song (20)Print the Lyrics
Three important rules for breaking up
Don't put off breaking up when you know you want to
Prolonging the situation only makes it worse
Tell him honestly, simply, kindly, but firmly
Don't make a big production
Don't make up an elaborate story
This will help you avoid a big tear jerking scene
If you wanna date other people say so
Be prepared for the boy to feel hurt and rejected
Even if you've gone together for only a short time,
And haven't been too serious,
There's still a feeling of rejection
When someone says she prefers the company of others
To your exclusive company,
But if you're honest, and direct,
And avoid making a flowery emotional speech when you brake the news,
The boy will respect you for your frankness,
And honestly he'll appreciate the kind of straight forward manner
In which you told him your decision
Unless he's a real jerk or a cry baby you'll remain friends

I'm head of the class
I'm popular
I'm a quarter back
I'm popular
My mom says I'm a catch
I'm popular
I'm never last picked
I got a cheerleader chick

Being attractive is the most important thing there is
If you wanna catch the biggest fish in your pond
You have to be as attractive as possible
Make sure to keep your hair spotless and clean
Wash it at least every two weeks
Once every two weeks
And if you see Johnny football hero in the hall
Tell him he played a great game
Tell him you like his article in the newspaper

I'm the party star
I'm popular
I've got my own car
I'm popular
I'll never get caught
I'm popular
I make football bets.
I'm a teachers pet


I propose we support a one month limit on going steady
I think It will keep people more able to deal with weird situations
And get to know more people
I think if you're ready to go out with Johnny
Now's the time to tell him about your one month limit
He wont mind he'll appreciate your fresh look on dating
And once you've dated someone else you can date him again
I'm sure he'll like it
Everyone will appreciate it
You're so novel what a good idea
You can keep your time to your self
You don't need date insurance
You can go out with whoever you want to
Every boy, every boy, in the whole world could be yours
If you'll just listen to my plan
THE TEENAGE GUIDE TO POPULARITY

I'm head of the class
I'm popular
I'm a quarter back
I'm popular
My mom says I'm a catch
I'm popular
I'm never last picked
I'm a cheerleader chick

I'm the party star
I'm popular
I've got my own car
I'm popular
I'll never get caught
I'm popular
I'm a teachers pet
I make football bets.

Review about Popular

so true | Reviewer: not important | 11/7/09

okay i heard this song and agreed with it all so i guess this means that i'm a cry baby. but finding weakness in youself is not so bad if you never allow your self to act in the same way again. i like songs that have truth that you can relate to even if it reminds you of a mistake or a regret.



I love this song. | Reviewer: Ashley | 7/21/09

I love this song. Quite a lot. It made me laugh the first time I heard it. I, currently being in high school, do see this. I also find it funny how people commenting this did not catch onto the fact that this song is actually mocking the popular people. High school is such a silly, shallow place. (: Actually, the world is a silly, shallow place. I'm okay with that. Hehe!



Caricature | Reviewer: Understanding | 6/30/09

This song isn't really that hard to understand - it's a caricature of a misguided outlook on life where ones values are based on shallow, transitory matters which will have little to no bearing on life (and usually only do to those who delude themselves in to thinking anyone else holds such a high opinion of them). Take the line about, "Being attractive is the most important thing..." Hate to let those young enough not to realize it, your looks will fade with time, you will not stay as thin as you are now, you may loose your hair boys, you may loose your figure girls. Even if you maintain it for a time, eventually you will succumb to the same processes we all do in life. So, if you evaluate worth on narrow, narcissistic criteria which will wane with time, what do you have left? If you're an awful human being, your looks leave you, but who and what you are generally doesn't. Hence why he speaks most of the lines in a manic, crazed manner - it's a form of delusional behavior in the end.



Ok, some people don't understand.... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/30/09

This song is not about being popular as much as it is about people dating. It's definately not about how twisted popularity is, and I don't even think it's bad (but that's only my opinion). It's about breaking up with people, and even if it's a short amount of time, if you make the break up all emotional, it will make the person being dumped more emotional, and if you just say "It's over", it may seem insensitive, but people are very able to forget about it if you are that direct. I believe this is very true, I was in this same situation. And I guess the rest is about popularity, like tell Johhny Football Star he did great in the game, because that just means you're being nice to somebody who's popular, I mean if you're a dick to one of the most popular guys in school you're not really helping your image.



Really | Reviewer: noone | 5/26/09

person at the bottom. your not even a person, you embody everything i hate at society. Personally i hope u get over your self, if not i hope u realize u will fail at life. your not as good as u think u are and someday some ones going to knock u down.



Get a Clue! | Reviewer: Sharon | 12/31/08

This song is mocking the standards that tell us in order to be happy and content you have to pretend to be something you are not.
I really thought modern teens would be smart enough to get the POINT of the song. But, DUH... they think the song is promoting this kind of behavior.
Can't you see that the song is saying that you can hurt someone by being FAKE?????? That being popular is like being a little cookie cutter idiot????
GOD ALMIGHTY! I am 57 years old, and even I can understand that!



What it means | Reviewer: Holly | 9/15/08

So this song is true..there are popular students at school but that dosent mean they are the best and all high and mighty, maybe for some time but that all fades away in time..lotz of people think dat looks is all that matters, which is sad cuz thats not true. POPULAR PEOPLE R STUCK UP SO DONT TRY TO BE ONE CUZ THEN PEOPLE DONT WANNA B AROUND U HAHA TAKE RHE ADVICE ITS TRUE



My thoughts on popular | Reviewer: Nolove | 9/2/08

You people are looking at the song the wrong way. I believe the song is saying no matter how popular you are your still going through the ups and downs everybody else does. You want to make it in life you have to be yourself.



popular | Reviewer: Zombie | 7/24/08

ummm...people?
aren't we supposed to be reviewing the song?
not fighting on if someones popular or not.
not fighting on if someone has a soul.
not fighting on if someone is cool, or a loser.
and if you're going to pick on someone...don't be an anon.
grow some balls.

get a life.
please.

this song is absolutely amazing.
i love it.
it has a lot of meaning.
a meaning which some of you have yet to figure out.



Johnnie Football Hero | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/1/08

I like this song because it has spoken words throughout which makes it interesting, it's humorous and deals with a time in our lives which some people don't want to let go, and others spend the rest of their lives trying to forget.
