		<description><![CDATA[Listen, we know a lot of you voted for Barack Obama because you thought it'd stop Will.I.Am from writing crappy songs about him.

But, look, it hasn't worked. Even though Will.I.Am's awful habit of roping in celebrities like Jessica Alba and Scarlett Johansson to perform sappy Hallmark-style songs like Yes We Can and Omigod Obama Just Touched Me (I'm Never Washing My Hand Again LOL!!!1!!) probably put Barack Obama's chances of becoming president in greater jeopardy than any of that William Ayers stuff, he's at it again.

Today Will.I.Am debuted his new Obama victory song It's A New Day on Oprah. It might seem incredibly precient of Will.I.Am to have written and recorded such a song as timely as It's A New Day so soon after Barack Obama's historic election win, but it's really not - he also had another song lined up in case John McCain won. But sadly I Hate You, Stupid Old Man (And Jessica Alba Agrees) will now never see the light of day.]]></description>

<p>But, look, it hasn&#8217;t worked. Even though Will.I.Am&#8217;s awful habit of roping in celebrities like <strong>Jessica Alba</strong> and <strong>Scarlett Johansson</strong> to perform sappy Hallmark-style songs like <em>Yes We Can</em> and <em>Omigod Obama Just Touched Me (I&#8217;m Never Washing My Hand Again LOL!!!1!!)</em> probably put Barack Obama&#8217;s chances of becoming president in greater jeopardy than any of that <strong>William Ayers</strong> stuff, he&#8217;s at it again.</p>
<p>Today Will.I.Am debuted his new Obama victory song <em>It&#8217;s A New Day</em> on<em> Oprah</em>. It might seem incredibly prescient of Will.I.Am to have written and recorded such a song as timely as<em> It&#8217;s A New Day</em> so soon after Barack Obama&#8217;s historic election win, but it&#8217;s really not &#8211; he also had another song lined up in case John McCain won. But sadly <em>I Hate You, Stupid Old Man (And Jessica Alba Agrees)</em> will now never see the light of day. Video after the jump&#8230;</p>
<p><span id="more-17106"></span>What&#8217;s the worst thing about Barack Obama becoming president of America this week? His supposed lack of experience? The sense that the poor man&#8217;s going to have to spend so much time behind bulletproof glass now that he&#8217;ll probably end up developing some sort of terrible crippling social isolation disorder? No.</p>
<p>The worst thing about Barack Obama being elected president of America is that we&#8217;re all going to have to put up with about six solid months of listening to celebrities crow on about the great job they did of getting him elected in the first place.</p>
<p>We already got a hint of how unbearable it&#8217;s going to be when even <a href="http://www.hecklerspray.com/the-view-elisabeth-hasselbecks-concession-speech-unites-america/200817076.php" target="_blank">Elisabeth Hasselbeck declared her support for Barack Obama</a> this week. <em>Elisabeth Hasselbeck</em>, for God&#8217;s sake. A week ago she looked as though she&#8217;d actually consider burning his house down if it meant he&#8217;d lose. So if she&#8217;s behind Barack Obama now, just imagine how insufferable Will.I.Am is at the moment.</p>
<p>Will.I.Am was there right at the start, remember. When Barack Obama said <em>&#8220;Yes we can,&#8221;</em> Will.I.Am wrote a song called Yes We Can. When Barack Obama said &#8220;We are the ones we&#8217;ve been waiting for,&#8221; Will.I.Am write a song called We Are The Ones. When Barack Obama said that thing about getting his daughters a puppy, Will.I.Am toyed with writing a song about that before realising that the only word that rhymes with &#8216;puppy&#8217; is &#8216;guppy&#8217; and that&#8217;d be stupid, even for him.</p>
<p>And now that Barack Obama is the president-elect of America, Will.I.Am has decided to write a song about that as well. Today on <em>Oprah</em>, Will.I.Am decided to give the song its official debut, as <em>Forbes</em> reports:</p>
<blockquote><p>Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am debuted his new music video celebrating President-elect Barack Obama&#8217;s victory during a live broadcast of &#8220;The Oprah Winfrey Show.&#8221; The lyrics of &#8220;It&#8217;s a New Day&#8221; include: &#8220;I woke up this morning, feeling brand new/Cuz the dreams that I&#8217;ve been dreaming has finally come true.&#8221; A video featuring photos of Obama played on a giant screen behind the Grammy-award winning artist.</p></blockquote>
<p><em>Profound</em>. Personally, we&#8217;re pleased that the dreams we&#8217;ve been dreaming haven&#8217;t come true because we&#8217;ve seen the damage that can be caused when bear vaginas grow teeth, but if that&#8217;s what Will.I.Am wants then good luck to him.</p>
<p>Although we will admit that <em>It&#8217;s A New Day</em> is slightly better than Will.I.Am&#8217;s other Barack Obama songs &#8211; mainly because Jessica Alba doesn&#8217;t come on and waffle about Darfur for an hour and a half in the middle &#8211; we do worry that Will.I.Am is never going to stop writing songs about Obama, even though <em>he doesn&#8217;t really have to</em> any more..</p>
<p>Because, seriously, as endearing as it seems now, just imagine how annoying it&#8217;s going to be in 18 months&#8217; time when Will.I.Am releases his double album inspired by Barack Obama&#8217;s trade negotiations with Belgium. No, really, imagine it.</p>
