Hello one and all! This week brings all kinds of new music and some of it is quite good and like always there is the usual shit. I really just can’t stop listening to Little Boot’s “Stuck On Repeat” I fucking LOVE that song and if you haven’t listened to it then you’re just being silly! This week we have everything from the new Katy Perry single, that would put Richard Rimmons Simmons to sleep, to Kelly Clarkson’s return to her pure pop ways…. let’s get it started.
Not Thinking At All!
A quick question: Why do singers/groups feel they have to release a boring sappy ballad in order to show that hey are “real” musicians?
I just think it’s stupid that after a great single like “Hot’n'Cold” Katy Perry is out to show the world that she is more than just a crazy faux dyke. And, sadly for her this just proves she is BORING. This song just screams Avril throwaway. There is nothing really to salvage from the song, I thought it might be the video but even THAT sucks.
I hope Katy goes back to her more up beat songs cos when things slow down you realize that she is not the most gifted in the ballad writing department. I mean comparing your lover to a” hard candy with a surprise center” is not the way to a man’s pants, Katy! I thought you knew this, well maybe you were too busy sticking your tongue down some dirty lezbo’s throats.
My Rating: Getting your makeup done by Katy Perry herself (and judging from the single cover , you ain’t gonna look pretty)
Someone Turn her off.
I don’t get the UK’s fascination with Lily Allen. It seems she can do no wrong. She is known for her drunken fiascos, fighting the paparazzi, and … ummm.. oh, yes, her music.
I just don’t get this song. it’s about all the TERRIBLE things people do to get famous, like stripping and showing your tits (which she has done) wanting to be rich (which she is) not caring about being clever OR funny (which she clearly is neither) so then… is this song about her or about other people? Just a mess! Too much to think about when all you wanna do is dance with somebody. She is set to go head to head with my favorite skank Lady Gaga, next week for the No.1 single in the UK. I can say it will prob be her due to the strange love peeeps got for her here.
I really didn’t want to say anything about this cos I just don’t like it, but it’s on the radio every 5 seconds so I just couldn’t resist. If you are still interested in Lily’s way to become famous check out her video that will surely send you off to sleepy times.
My Rating: 5 hours of watching her canceled “talk show”.
Tranny Mess.
I like that Kelly looks like a tranny mess on the cover of her new single. FACT. I like that she is airbrushed to the point of no recognition. FACT. But sadly I’m not so sure I like this song.
Could this be another classic case of my single cover is better than my actual song? Well.. no it’s not that bad really. But I can’t help but wonder (thank you Carrie Bradshaw) if this return to pop is all a bit forced. Last time we heard from this little bundle of joy, she was one pissed off American Idol winner and you so don’t want to fuck with them. Her song “Never Again” went nowhere and it was just a bigger mess than her eating habits. She then said all this shit about important people in the music biz, her album flopped, she downsized her concerts, from arena to her local 7-eleven. So a defeated Kelly probably thought, “OK so no one liked me angry so I might as well do another version of “Since U Been Gone” and be famous a-gain” and that is EXACTLY what this is. This is currently the new No.1 in the US now and as you can see her plan worked.
My Rating: 3 semi happy gay monkeys (but not too happy)
Single Of The Week:
"If You Seek Amy"- Britney Spears
Oh Britney! How I love thee…..This is Britters 3rd single from the OK-ish “Circus” album (sorry, nothing will top 2007 drug induced “Blackout” for me) and what a song it is. It’s pretty much Britney telling everyone that no matter what people think about her skanky ass all of the boys and all of the girls still want to fuck her…charming… isn’t it?
This is why I love this song so much.. cos it’s so true. I mean not in my case, (unless Britney has a penis she hasn’t been telling us about) but everyone wants to be with her, and that is pretty clear. This song is a new classic for her and many think “oh it’s just Britney trying to get attention” but HELLO, She doesn’t need to do ANYTHING and people will still pay her attention so I highly doubt this is a cry for attention. It’s just a cry to dance your ass off to a rockin’ disco beat.
And OF COURSE people are getting their panties in a twist cos of the title of the song, so the single version will be ‘If You See Amy” instead of “If You SEEK Amy” My god! I sometimes don’t believe I’m living in the year 2009! I mean what is this shit? the 50′s? Give me a fucking break.
This and “Shattered Glass” should be released and note to Britney: Please! No Ballads!
