Going out of your way to stay out of the herd is also a herd instinct. You either like something or you don't.

The "dumbness" of this song is what makes it brilliant.

If you don't like lyrics then that is just you. Why would you want to post how bad this song is again and again when you have a problem with lyrics in general?
Lyrics have been a major part of some of the world's greatest music. When your opinion of the world becomes a little less black and white, you will see that.
Yes, it is. Most pedestrian music loop ever.

yea, its a balance.
but lyrics ruin this song.
i hope i dont start seeing shades of grey
When we see a beautiful scene or when we listen to a melodious music
though we may apparently be cheerful, suddenly our mind sinks into a melancholic mood! (What can be its cause?)
The sweetness of the scene or the song brings back to the memory from the sub-conscious planes of our mind
all those sweet moments of the past (even from the previous births) which have been lost forever!”---(kalidasa)
My Tamil friends here will agree,
Can we compare any such song with .’ Malarnthum Malaratha”-One of the most melodious songs in Tamil which really gives most of the old timers wonderful nostalgic memories…This number from the movie “Pasamalar” had lyrics written by the legendary lyricist Kannadasan, composed by Viswanathan-Ramamurthi and sung by T M Sounderarajan and P Susheela…AND THE ever green greatest actor/Sivaji Ganesan, whose expression you seen on the screen evoke tears in the theatre, and even to day whenever this classic film released it always for ‘ladies only’ (Men have no stomach to cry publicly)
I have not sided with anyone, both who liked and disliked.. but you must admit this song affect both groups, thus they who disliked, come again and again give the excuse why they disliked, Some thing in this song which draw like magnet, I simply want to analyse what it is?
Here, what is the situation”, A drunken, semi-illiterate, youth bashing his girl, who rejected him; is the theme..There are thousands of films songs with this theme already there in pure classical form. But , only one song, this one, stand apart..only two words are Tamil others are random words from English and Tamil with mixed.. So it didn’t even called as ‘Lyrics’.. we may call it a dialogue..
Somehow, the ‘average semi illiterate American-black,’ some where in Newyork sub-urb, recognize this song as his own, He may conjure the meaning of”kolaveri di’ from the other English words,such as, White U GirlU, Black U Heart U..Lovuu,’ it was the same story from Japan, Malaysia, china..
They like not because of its ‘Music’.. But because they believe, the words in the songs are there own…
For the past week I read almost all the 60,000 comments appeared in the comments page and try to understand, so many time I have to log in and log out.. whether google count it single visit or separate visit
Many of the youth from various countries identify, it is their story…
So I concluded, Both who like this (song) and dislike this are having valid reasons..

True.
I never got the feel of hearing a english song while hearing it. It sounds tamil to me.
Its not. It's one of the first songs by the vocaloid engine Hatsune Miku.
