"Lollipop (Param Pam Pam)" is the debut single recorded by Romanian recording artist
Background, composition and reception
Before being signed to a record label, Stan participated in various music-related contests, including the Mamaia Music Festival.
The recording makes use of elements from American singer Fergie's 2006 single "Fergalicious" (2006).[7] While Stan said that the track is "club-friendly" and features "funny lyrics",[1] German magazine Klatsch Tratsch named it a "catchy pop song".[2] Celeste Rhoads, writing for AllMusic, praised "Lollipop (Param Pam Pam)" during his review for Saxobeats, calling it a "club sensation" along with 2011 singles "Mr. Saxobeat" and "Get Back (ASAP)".[3] Mike Schiller from PopMatters described the production of the track "generic" and its lyrics "crude", while wishing "that it had been conveniently forgotten about [on the album]".[8]
