What's that supposed to mean??

[Phil Starr]

Four chords, what's not to love? Guilty as charged. Bet you all do Crazy too.

[Monckyman]

Done it, but no longer.
Not doing crazy, doing[s] f***[/s] Forget You,.

[louisthebass]

I think it could become the new "Mustang Sally" or "Sex on Fire"......

[thebrig]

Heard it for the first time just now, and if my band insisted on doing this, my gear would be packed up, and I would be out the door in a flash!
I know it's rather shallow of me, but there's only one [b]JJ[/b] for me, and he play's great bass, mind you, she does have better legs though!

[dave_bass5]

Never heard of it until i clicked on the youtube link. I quite like it but cant see my band ever doing it.

another brit school creation for the masses, but she got some fine legs and a wicked voice so who am i to complain.

[leftyhook]

can't believe ppl here have never heard pricetag! I don't frequent the charts, but this song was everywhere.

After another listen i think i do recall hearing it last year, it wasn't it used for a TV add?, maybe thats where i heard it. I never listen to the radio (at least not one that plays the current stuff) and my kids arent fans so im pretty much out of touch with who sings what these days.

[TomKent]

That track is massive, one of the best selling in 2011 and most probably 2012 too (even though we're early in).

The song is 'catchy' enough for pubs, so people can sing along easily.

I chuckled quite a lot watching her sing it on telly last summer, draped in uber-blingy diamondy stuff. For it's not about the ba-bling-ba-bling it is?

[the_skezz]

I refuse to play it on account of the fact it's pushing the message of 'Money's not important' when - as discreet and Dave Vader pointed out - it quite clearly is, and she's profiting from the ignorance of the masses whose failure to question her motivation lead to this pile of crap becoming a massive hit. And also because she doesn't return my calls.

[Oopsdabassist]

Now I've heard it, it does seem vaguely familiar, although I have NO idea where from as I avoid the likes of Radio 1 with a passion!!

If she wants them back she should try picking up the phone

[discreet]

I'll give you a tenner for them.

did they come fresh out of the drawer or out of the wash basket? That will determine their value

ooh.....can I borrow them.....?

[thebrig]

I think you should put them on the [url="http://basschat.co.uk/forum/21-for-sale-other-musically-related-stuff/"]For sale: Other musically related stuff[/url] section, and watch the scramble for them!

I've just watched the video again a couple more times, not to check out the legs of course, but to see whether the song will grow on me.
Unfortunately, it still does nothing for me!

I'm trying to push for a stripped down reggae version of it, should spice it up a little
[/quote]

We do it...standard chorus with a reggae style verse and rap section People dont recognise it until the vocals come in and then its "Aaah!" Goes down well with the punters.

Just turn the volume down to zero and watch it a few more times, for research purposes only of course
