Yes. The song is cute. I'll admit, it's catchy. Yes, the singer's adorable. She's just so cheerfully, charmingly batty in the video.
However, as much as I'd like to say the video as a whole is "cute", I can't. Every time I see it (and I happen across it a WHOLE lot on TV), I can't help but ask myself - would I think it was so cute if it portrayed a guy stalking, kidnapping, and eventually striking a female victim? It fails the "good for the goose, good for the gander" test in my head. And there's just been too many horror stories in the news lately about this kind of thing. It just kind of gives me the willies.
