    I hated it because south park mocked it and I was young and impressionable. It was also overplayed a lot on the radio.

    Listening to it years later though, in the context of losing Sonny, I don’t know it’s a pretty powerful song

      Also there would be no T-Pain if it weren’t for Cher. For better or worse, that song is the sole reason why the “robot voice” of 2000s hip hop was so popular (caused by turning the pitch-correction knob in the Auto-Tune VST to the max, which makes the singer’s voice unnaturally perfect).

      Have you seen the video, though? It’s about Cher eating a younger person and becoming them. Lizad people confirmed!
