Listen here, Vanessa Hudgens: I’ve got more than enough disposable pop on my iPod. And you’ve probably got a sickeningly large bank account from all your High School Musical successes. So the bottom line is, you can take your new single "Sneakernight" (what kind of wonky title is that anyway?) and your pop-star aspirations and…oooh! That’s a jazzy little beat you’ve got there. Nice organ riff, too. What’s that lyric, Vanessa? Did I eat? Do I have the energy? Well, that’s very considerate of you to ask, but fret not: I had a nice bowl of Honey Bunches of Oats earlier this morning.
Wait a minute. Cut that out. I’m wise to your game. And this is not how it’s going down. Although, I have to admit, your accompanying video is awfully cute, what with your nuclear shoelaces and the amusing side plot with the resident geek busting a move to try and win your attention. Kid’s got some moves!
But no…away from me, teenage temptress! I’m not parting with 99 cents to download your hypnotic three-minute ode to getting one’s boogie on. Yeah, I just attempted the robot while sitting in front of my computer, but don’t read anything into it. Nor should you get your hopes up just because I’m about to sing along with the "Sneakernight" chorus. Because I’m not the musical equivalent of the horror-movie victim who runs up the stairs instead of out the front door. I am totally in control of my purchasing power. And…Basically what we’re gonna do is dance/ Basically what we’re gonna do is dance / Basically what we’re gonna do is dance / Yeah that’s right it’s sneakernight…

Ahh! V Huds keeps trying to be this spicy songstress (a la Jennifer Lopez/Janet Jackson/other disposable pop/latin icons) and it fails. “Sneakernight” starts with her trying to do some runs, trying being the optimum word, and nope. Then I turned it off. Plus, what kind of song is this? SNEAKERNIGHT? Why would anyone put on sneakers to go to a club and dance? That is high-heeled/adorable flats territory, not sneakers. I like V Huds from High School Musical, and she has an okay voice for pop music, but this song…way too repetetive, way too trying to be something it’s not.
She’s not even at a club, she’s in someone’s rec room. it’s an annoying song, nothing cute, nothing catchy, just another annoying product that will sell millions on account of tweeners having way too much money.
She may have a sweet voice in HSM, but all I heard was a robot ala electronic voice modulation. Seriously, you were tempted by THAT?!?!
When I first heard this song, I knew it would be silly and cheesy. But it’s not bad … I still like Vanessa even after that whole photo mess, she’s supercute. Even so, I can take or leave this song.
love this song!
Eh, unlike the rest of you, I’ve fallen for it now too. Thanks for the heads up, Slezak.
Damn it. Goodbye, hard-earned dollar.
she’s all kinds of adorable and the song is pretty catchy.
I listened to this song for a minute and then had to turn it off. Okay, she’s cute and those neon sneaker laces are fun, but the song was just sort of bland in that way that you just KNOW it’s going to start irritating you in another 30 seconds.
Love this song, I’ve had it on my iPod for nearly 3 months now though =P
Wait, wait, let me get this straight. So, basically, what Vanessa is basically saying is that she and her friends are going to well, basically, dance. I am so glad that she cleared everything up by using the phrase “basically what we’re going to do is dance” three times – because I was confused about what she was doing.
i love it and the cd identifeid wow amazing
I can’t resist popy-beaty-no brainy-up beaty goodness for at the gym. I’ve never seen high school musical, and only checked out this song because she has the best hair in hollywood-so, logically(but not at all really..), I decided I should check out her new single. Love it, I like her voice, I was expecting something ala Heidi Montag and was presently surprised by her sound. So basically what I’m gonna do is dance…
this is so annoying and its a bunch of crap. buy some good stuff like billy joel!!!
I thought this was a 30-45 sec sneaker commercial not a 3 min music video…. and I thought she said “Basically, bubblegum, poo is dance…”
