Also the song may become a trending topic that much sooner, since otherwise the title would be ungoogleable.

I guess at least it has that much going for it... It sets itself apart from the 9000 other songs called "Beautiful."
not outmoded in the since that hashtags are ephemeral, but outmoded in that twitter is already established and sedimented, it's sort of web 1.5 in a way xp to myself
― 乒乓, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 17:07 (eleven years ago) link
I feel like a lot more people are dropping hashtags ironically/jokingly this year? Like, the idea of doing this IRL / in contexts other than twitter is something that only just occurred to people? It seems a bit tardy to me but whatevs. Maybe Miguel and Mariah have timed it right in this regard.
― Tim F, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 17:08 (eleven years ago) link
xp Yeah, good call... It feels like something that should have happened in like 2010.
― billstevejim, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 17:08 (eleven years ago) link
but honestly if you have strong opinions against the hashtagging of song titles that just makes you look corny + reactionary
― 乒乓, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 17:08 (eleven years ago) link
oh my god the hashtag is dumb but it doesn't matter a tiniest bit and moaning about it is worse than its existence in the first place

I think its worth at least discussing... Gimmicks typically suggest insincerity. And it looks awkward to me.
I'll be over it within an hour though lol
― billstevejim, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 17:17 (eleven years ago) link
it's ... a mariah song. she loves gimmicks. she also loves rainbows, butterflies, and candy bling. and she's totally sincere about it. this should come as no surprise to anyone.

exactly
also why are we doing this over two threads, can we not
― flamenco drop (lex pretend), Tuesday, 7 May 2013 17:31 (eleven years ago) link
did people get out of their seats when nicki was rapping about number signs. if anything hashtagging a song name in 2013 feels almost kind of old and outmoded

I like that the new Mariah joint requires two threads running in conjunction to do it hype-justice.
― Tim F, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 17:33 (eleven years ago) link
well it should have gone in the mariah thread in the first place but also it should have had one of its own

the #THICKE flashing on the screen throughout the "Blurred Lines" video is def a more funny use of corny hashtags, although i hope that's not the name of RT's next album or something (no wait -- "Please RT" would be the ideal twitter-themed Robin Thicke album title!)

haha when Ne-Yo first came out with "So Sick", he came on the radio here for an interview and just about the first thing out of his mouth was "Hey, I just want to clear something up. My press bio says I'm 22. That's a lie, I'm actually 26." Endeared me to him immediately.
