Eight Simple Steps to Becoming a Pop Music Sensation

1. Change letters in your name to currency symbols. For example: Eric becomes €ri¢.

2. Can’t sing? Have a computer do it.

3. Substitute lyrics that have subtlety and meaning with Family Guy-esque references that make people feel smart for “getting it.”

4. Make the chorus at most five words.

5. Repeat the chorus at a minimum thirty times.

6. Liberally spread sensual gasps and/or moans throughout the song.

7. In other words: Appeal to the lowest common denominator: Teenagers.

8. Be an attractive blonde female under the age of 25, or a boy who looks like he’s 12. Either one.
