Search - Adam Barta :: I Told Her

Horrible--no way is this five stars, more like ZERO STARS

"There is really no other way of saying this--this sucks. I would rather stick my head in a blender than listen to this crap any longer. I hope Adam is reading this because he needs to seriously consider a career change. Also, who is he trying to fool? "I Told Her?" More like "I Told Him", if you ask me."

Top 10 Reasons not to waste your money on this junk

"The Top 10 Better Ways to Spend Your $15.99 Than on this Discount Bin reject



10. Spend your $15.99 on the more than 455,645 items at Amazon that

people actually buy than this sorry excuse for a single. The facts

don't lie--"I Told Her" Amazon.com Sales Rank: 455,646. (Go ahead and

try to find something ranked lower than this)



9. For less than 10 cents a day, you can feed a starving child in a

foreign country for more than 4 months.



8. You can buy 8 gallons of gasoline, which will allow you to enjoy a

4 hour leisurely drive (if your car gets 30 mpg, at 60 mph) listening

to COMMERCIALLY SUCCESSFUL MUSICIANS WHO HAVE PROVEN THEMSELVES.



7. You can buy four drinks at a karaoke bar, listen to karoake

singers who stink, get up there yourself and botch a song, and realize

that even though everyone in this bar sucks, it was still more 100

times more enjoyable than listening to "I Told Her"



6. For an additional $15.99, you can buy the same formerly-starving

child a half-hour voice lesson, after which this child has a 99.9%

chance of SOUNDING MUCH BETTER than Adam ever will.



5. You can buy 120 earplugs (4.99 for a pack of 40) for 60 of your

friends in the event that they are ever forced to listen to "I Told

Her" on the radio.



4. Since when does an CD single with several versions of the SAME

HORRIBLE SONG cost $15.99? Last time I checked, singles by REPUTABLE

artists go for 8 bucks at most, and a typical full album with at least

10 songs costs way less than $15.99. Go buy two singles or one FULL

ALBUM with MORE THAN 2 SONGS on it.



3. Go to your local shopping mall, buy some cinnamon buns and pretzels

for the entire family, sit and enjoy mediocre renditions of your

favorite songs during the mall's talent show, which, sadly, even at

their worst, are still more tolerable than listening to "I Told Her"



2. Go to an online music service and buying 16 songs (at less than a

dollar each) that are actually WORTH LISTENING TO.



1. Donate your $15.99 to the Adam Barta College Fund.

"Ask yourself, have you ever seen this many 5 star ratings that are completely glowing for a no name artist? Hmm, perhaps someone *cough* *cough* is trying to dilute honest opinions from REAL reviewers.



Follow these steps:

1. go to www.adambarta.com

2. view the video for "I Told Her"

3. stop laughing

4. seriously, stop laughing

5. decide whether you would like to purchase the cd



As for me, I've decided NOT to purchase this album.



As a word of advice for those giving fake 5 star reviews: At least TRY to make it somewhat believable. Say the kid shows potential and it's a good start and give him 3 stars. That's horribly distorted but it's better than the blatant disregard for all things holy giving him 5 stars along with a comment like "puts real sizzle in the "pop"". Perhaps that's the sizzle from the steaming pile of poo this song really is.
