This Is Probably The Best Pop Song Ever Written About Today’s Failed iOS 8 Update
The songbook of history is filled with countless odes written in response to this morning’s disastrous update to Apple’s iOS 8 operating system, but this one has to be the catchiest of them all.
The failed rollout of iOS 8.0.1, which was supposed to fix a bunch of stuff and activate some new features but just ended up turning off wireless service and the Touch ID fingerprint sensors for iPhone 6 and 6 Plus devices, inspired Brooklyn songwriter (the third most popular job in Brooklyn, behind Instagram photographer and unmarried Wall Street twentysomething) Jonathan Mann to pen and record this ditty, which is really much better than it has any right to be.
Enjoy. Or don’t. No one forced you to watch it.
