    First of all, who cares?

    Second of all, did anyone of you even read the article thing? They're saying the quote is most likely bull anyway.

    I don't know why everyone thinks this is funny. Bieber is 100x the talent of Kurt. Don't get me wrong, Kurt was a visionary and a true god of rock and roll, but Bieber transcends music. We are witnessing a new Golden Age of music with Bieber and GaGa. Enjoy it while you can. You're kids and grandkids will one day ask what it was like to live Bieber Fever.

    i have an 11 year old daughter... im already living beiber fever.



    though honestly with her being my daughter its more like the beiber sniffles. i bought her the album by request, she has a commercial poster and a couple of handmade i heart justin posters on her wall, and when she asked if id take her to his concert if he toured i said not if i could get away with it. shes too level headed to be gripped by the fever plus i do nothing to encourage her.
    hear my name
    take a good look
    this could be the day
    hold my hand
    lie beside me
    i just need to say
