THE debut single from an American 13-year-old has gone viral for all the wrong reasons.

Rebecca Black's saccharine song Friday went nuts over the weekend after Comedy Central's website posted a link to it under the headline "Songwriting Isn't For Everyone."

The heavily auto-tuned track has already had more than 10 million views, and while her age-appropriate fans may consider her the next Justin Bieber, other music fans have protested loudly about the banality of the track.

The ratings button on the YouTube clip has been disabled and Black has out-trended the Japanese earthquake tragedy for the past few days.

Listen to the song below and tell us what you think.

Reviewers have said "it's so bad, it's good" for its lyrical content which includes the unforgettable chorus:

"Yesterday was Thursday, Thursday

Today is Friday, Friday (Partyin')

Tomorrow is Saturday

And Sunday comes afterwards".

The singer seems to have been launched to online infamy by a Los Angeles company called Ark Music Factory, which operates casting calls for teen singers to record their tunes.

They have pushed all the right buttons with Friday, with songs counting down the days of the week proving hugely successful in contemporary pop.

Dance troupe Justice Crew had a platinum hit with their second single Friday To Sunday and The Easybeats' working class man anthem Friday On My Mind was voted the best Australian song of all time.
