Who would ever want to remake Eddie Murphy's cheeseball classic "Party All The Time"? Aubrey O Day, that's who.
The former Danity Kane singer/actress has teamed up with Snl (D.Woods's cousin) to remake that 80's song. O'Day, who rose to publicity in her turn with P.Diddy's "Making the Band" was fired from the group after many clashes with P.Diddy over her image. She's no stranger to ragmags like UsWeekly and many gossip sites, and she also brews up controversy when on shows like "Wendy Williams," "Chelsea Lately" and "Hannity."
But this is not a review of Ms. O'Day's bisexuality, her political views or anything else, like everything else of "Shennantics" this is about her music.
That being said, this is not a bad single. It's what they call a "club banger" meaning in audio terms, it's thickly produced with synthesizer and early shot outs to the guest appearances. The production here is nothing entirely new, and still has remnants of the original song which makes it clear that it is a remake. Both Snl and O'Day have strong vocals that are not filler vocals, which is a relief.
Also keeping in tact with the original version is the subject matter of the song. Instead of changing the gender pronoun to "My boy wants to party all the time," it still is "My girl wants to party all the time." The song decidedly flirts with lesbian tendencies as O'Day sings "She likes those girls that are like me." O'Day is not a demure type of person, and in the club atmosphere that this song addresses it makes sense. It also helps clear up those pesky grey matters of her sexuality. O'Day can't seperate her personal life from her music.
Whatever her motives, the single is catchy.
If the single can pick up radioplay, it more than likely will be one of those singles that everyone is talking about, for better or for worse.
