8 Wildly Popular Songs That Are Utter Nonsense

7. Like a G6 - Far East Movement

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvgJEznqtms Not too long ago this song was everywhere. After taking over radio for most of 2010 this song went on to sell 4 million copies in the United States alone. But it's utterly nonsensical. A G6 might well exist, that's not really the point... the success of the song is down to the fact that nobody really knows what a G6 is, but wanted one anyway off the back of the lyrics. If you've never heard this song and you needed a good description of it, it's basically the poor man's "Gangnam Style". This song's strongest point comes when it coins the term "slizzered". If that alone didn't convince you of its utter nonsense appeal, at one point in this song one of the members of this group even manages to drop lyrics such as "sober girls around me they be actin' like they drunk". What the hell is that? Is that like a superpower you can acquire?
