My apologies to Katy Perry. No longer does she have the most vapid lyrics in the Top 40.

My apologies to Katy Perry. No longer does she have the most vapid lyrics in the Top 40.
Witness Kesha--err, I'm sorry, Ke$ha, in her most recent single, "Your Love is My Drug":

"Hey, so I got a question.
Do you wanna have a slumber party in my basement?
Do I make your heart beat like an 808 drum?
Is my love your drug?
Your drug, uh your drug
Uh, your drug
Is my love your drug?"

Just to be clear, this is sung by a 23 year old woman, not an 11 year old prepubescent girl.

As I alluded to earlier, this crap makes Lady Gaga look like fucking Bob Dylan.

1. Bad but I think Fergie still holds the title for worst lyrics
Whatcha gonna do with all that junk
All that junk inside your trunk

I'ma get get get get you drunk
Get you love drunk off my hump
My hump my hump my hump my hump my hump
My hump my hump my hump my lovely little lumps

Check it out

I drive these brothers crazy
I do it on the daily
They treat me really nicely
They buy me all these ices
Dolce and Gabbana
Fendi and the Donna
Karan they be sharin'
All their money got me wearing fly
Whether I ain't askin
They say they love mah ass in
Seven Jeans
True religion
I say no
But they keep givin
So I keep on takin
And no I aint taken
We can keep on datin',
Now keep on demonstratin'

My love my love my love my love
You love my lady lumps
My hump my hump my hump
My humps they got you..

4. That is definitely one of the most irritating songs ever written
I worked doing shelving/stocking during an all night shift at a job and that song KEPT REPEATING on the radio someone had.

2. Young lady, please do not debase the venerable TR808.

Edit: I tend to click Amerigo Vespucci threads in the same manner in which I approach car wrecks....cringing, fully knowing ahead of time what I'll see, but morbidly unable to resist.

15. I have nothing against the 808.
It's Kesha that drives me to insanity. How can someone so vapid and devoid of talent become so fucking successful? I have nothing against electronica, 808s and autotuners, but there's a world of difference between Kanye West and this utter waste of space.

12. I like it too but
I can't stand Kesha. But the song is catchy. Pure pop fluff, but it has a good beat.

14. I didn't like that one
Edited on Fri Jul-16-10 08:52 AM by bigwillq
I didn't like any of Kesha's song until "your love is my drug". I don't really like Kesha, but that one song is pretty good.

6. Beatles.
Oh yeah, I´ll tell you something
I think you'll understand
When I say that something
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand

Oh, please, say to me
You'll let me be your man
and please, say to me

You'll let me hold your hand
Now let me hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand

(Fucking genius, right?)

Last night I said these words to my girl,
I know you never even try girl,
C'mon (C'mon) C'mon (C'mon) C'mon (C'mon) C'mon (C'mon)
Please please me, whoa yeah, like I please you

(whoa!)

She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

She says she loves you
And you know that can't be bad.
Yes, she loves you
And you know you should be glad.

----------------------------

Okay, yeah, they got better. But modern Top 40 ain't got nuthin' as bad as that crap.

9. Thats a million times better than ANYTHING the black eyed peas did
The Beatles could be mundane, but in my opinion they were never EVER as bad as the stuff we hear today.
London Bridge? Please.

18. Hardly. It's pure drivel.
If the Beatles came out today, they'd be Lounge meat. People would mock Sargent Pepper because they'd be unable to get past Meet the Beatles.

True, but it IS her job the separate those little girls from their allowance.

That's what pop music has been about for a loooooooong time.
