I kind of liked Womanizer. I'll have to download this new one and determine how it sounds.

FTA: The Toxic hitmaker's forthcoming record features the chorus "All of the boys and all of the girls are beggin' to, if U seek Amy," with the last four words sounding like swear word spelled out when sung quickly.


wow, I probably would've never have put that together if the Concerned Parents had not pointed it out...

Yeah, I figured they lifted it, but that's where the middle-aged guys who write all of Brit's turgid crap probably heard it. i kind of doubt that they read a lot of James Joyce.

My favorite edgy band? I refered to a recent song with a similar concept. You, Marla,, should win a prize for showing how cool and varied your musical knowledge is for knowing about April Wine. I'm very proud of you.

I always thought Joyce was a fairly common read. Ulysses at that.

To add to the list of "edgy" people who did it before Britney, what about Steven Tyler in "Devil's Got a New Disguise". I remember hearing that when they released it a few years ago.

I seriously had to say it outloud at least a dozen times before I understood. Even after you guys wrote it out. I must have looked like an idiot.

Architecture Of Aggression 2009-01-13 02:43:54 PM  
ok ok ok, I know this is gonna sound terrible because people say this about a lot of music, but I have to say this only about THIS song. it's so completely generic and cookie cutter in every single way. It sounds like she's using a baby voice and talking to an infant that doesn't even know what its hearing. it's like she finally figured out how to use an auto-tune on herself after she watched the Dark Knight while the neighbors were listening to April Wine. it's so very generic that it's turn my completely valid comments in to more generic bullshiat because she's adding to the pool of "stars" and "music" that require this type of feedback. damn you britney spears!

BHG is awesome. Anyone who starts a song with, "If your ass was a Chinese restaurant, I'll have the Poo-Poo platter." is gold in my book.

However... Van Hagar does not approve of Brittney's shenanigans.

that is reTarTed with two capital Ts. The lyrics make no sense, they are just a means to get to the tricky/clever part, "If u seek Amy" . . . Way to go, mom of the year!

womanizer,womanizer,womanizer,womanizer,womanizer,womanizer,womanizer,womanizer , womanizer.... somebody taught her a new word.

I can't lie though. I'd still hit it. Many, many times. As long as she keeps quiet, that is.

FTFA: "It's not about us. It's about the mom in the mini-van with her eight-year-old."

The force is strong with this one... she knows her enemy!

Any parent that doesn't immediately turn off the station that plays crap like Britney has already failed, spelling lesson or not.

What are we up to now, three or four bands that have done this? =P (Although these guys stand on their own merit.)

 
down4afall 2009-01-13 04:44:33 PM  
Having just listened to this song, I don't understand why people continue to defend her as a talent.

I don't think you understand what's happening here.

 
DemonEater 2009-01-13 05:16:35 PM  
I'm inclined to agree in this case.

The "if you seek amy" part makes absolutely no sense, either grammatically or in context. However, "fark ME" fits both ways.

If it was CLEVER, even remotely, there'd be case. But in this instance, nope, she's just spelling "fark me" and hoping to put it on the radio.

And with the number of 5-year olds who love this type of music who'd be running around singing it and making adults have serious cows, it'd be a poor choice for the radio stations to allow it.

Now, I wish we lived in a society where a swearword on the radio didn't cause the walls of civilization to come crashing down. But I wish we lived in a society without Britney Spears, too. Can't always get what you want.

That sucked. SO bad. SOOOOO Very bad.
I am ashamed that I was even alive when that was made.

I had some 1st graders spelling it at lunch today. I asked why would she spell it if she knew not to say it. She told me thats what her mommy does and her mommy doesn't swear... *face palm*

a popular singer releases a song with some sexual innuendo that some kids will probably be singing? may even make it to one of those Kidz Bop albums

I found Amy.
She said if you have a problem with the song she can arrange to see you next Tuesday.

 
Sparkimus Prime 2009-01-13 08:43:47 PM  
When I first heard her song "Womanizer", I thought it was this guy singing:

/Seriously, if you need to have your voice modulated that much on a song, you suck.

The track sounds like the producers intended to market it to 16 year old girls. In 1997.

In other words, meh.

The vocals do sound like some old video game theme music.

You'd think that entertainment reporters would know that modern-day DJs have no say in what gets played.
