"Barbie Girl" is actually my favorite Morgan James song partly because I find it very entertaining as it brings a smile to my face and partly because i played it up bigtime with Morgan by giving her a customized Morgan James Barbie Doll in Nashville:

pennylane & I & probably Patti & Harry will be seeing Morgan James at an intimate coffee shop in Milwaukee on her solo tour December 4th.

I really like it, too, and the video is hilarious (not to speak of excellent acting - how can Morgan remain so stiff when she gets tilted and carried away at the end, and all in the same take!? She's perfect in her role, imo.).
The only problem is: every time I hear it, it stays in my ear for a few hours and there is nothing I can do. And when I hum it, my daughter starts humming it too, randomly later.
A nice summertime playsong - it has slowed down on YT after its summer rocketing, and is set to be overtaken by Oops really soon. Which is so creepy. [Sorry, had to get back in sync with the topic of this thread.]
The problem with TMTC is that the original is also pretty good, not just Morgan's version (nice problem to have).

Yea, I don't love Morgan's version of TMTC. I think it's one of the best songs of the past...I don't know how many years, so I'm quite picky. There's so much too it. I love Morgan's voice, but I'm not sure she captured the soul of the song.
I also have a huge problem with pronoun or lyric changes in general (It's stupid. Glad Haley doesn't do it.) But especially in songs like this, or "Back to Black" where you actually change fundamental aspects of the song when you change the words. (The "her" in the song is not only a reference to his lover, but also to Goddess of Love/Venus)
It's not really a criticism of Morgan though, I'd put a high bar on anyone who covered TMTC. (Jacquie Lee's cover bothers me for similar reasons.)

My sister used to play the original ALL the time haha. Definitely why I don't like the song!

She has 772K YT subscribers. Something that Scott has probably noticed too.

I wonder if Haley will be in it - she was recording a while ago when Puddles the clown was recording too.
