aw, he's sweet. he looks like my nephew.

cute voice too.

bless. :D

that's kind of what happened when I saw the video too - I just went "look at his face!!!! He's so CUTE!" and then decided the song was good too.

I'm a bit sick of it now though - heard too many versions last night.

Am I the only person in the world who hasn't heard Umbrella yet?

No, you're not. I don't even know if it's sung by a man or a woman, that's how haloof ai ahm. :cool:

Mation - it was at no.1 for 10 weeks, apparently.

Really?!

Oh dear. Perhaps I'm a teensy bit out of touch with the world of pop! :D

Well I'm glad young people are getting all worked up about umbrellas and not hos. :)

I'm sorry you haven't heard it, at your age. It's only to be expected at mine. :(

Well you should, it's class. It's a pop song. Catchy. Nice lyrics not at all deep. It grows on you. It was timely in its appearance at the number one spot given the weather. That - especially the extent of the rain and the floods ("now that it's raining more than ever, you can stand under my umbrella ella ella") and the fact that a brolly was hardly going to be of much use during the floods, meant the song was somehow special in a hard to define kind of way.

Loads of people sing along to it.

2007 the year of the great floods. No 1 pop tune? Umbrella by Rihanna. :cool:

I'm guessing this Rihanna is a woman of some sort.

She's a young woman from Barbados. She has two albums out and has had a few hit singles, all pop music falling under the umbrella term RnB. She tends to sing happy little danceable ditties. SOS sampled Tainted Love. Umbrella is her biggest hit yet.

It's also her worst hit yet. the others have all been great, this is shit

Unfaithful wasn't all that great. She didn't have the voice for it, sounded a bit whiney. SOS was brilliant. But Umbrella is tops! Partly because it is a bit silly, possibly unintentionally, also because by chance - the weather! and also because it is a good pop tune.

Ok, I just found it and had a listen/look.

I may well have heard it before but I have no way of knowing as it is completely unmemorable.

What the hell kind of pop tune is lacking a memorable chorus?? A rubbish one, that's what kind.
