I was walking through a mall store last week and a pop sounding song was playing. The singer was a young woman, and at points she would yell “errr” or “grrr”. I didn’t think much of it, but I woke up yesterday morning and kept hearing that part of it, so now of course I’m obsessed with finding out the song! I wanna say she was singing about relationship issues, then let loose with that frustrated shout/scream/whatever. If someone knows it, I’ll be shocked. Also I’ll be 3 for 3 for nearly impossible song id help success! ---

I had never heard of Miss Lloyd before, but I clicked on that link… and… it’s a song by a crazy woman about being a crazy woman but she, being crazy, doesn’t realize how crazy she sounds; she just thinks she sounds normal and reasonable. As such, this is prolly the scariest thing I’ve seen all year. ---

Errrr! _Dear Og, Why Did I Click That Link?_ Please someone break it with something REALLY heavy. In 10 seconds, it made me wonder why the world had never developed a working tranquilizer rifle for human beings. > [@Snowboarder\_Bo](#): > > As such, this is prolly the scariest thing I’ve seen all year. “But we don’t know whether to load it with Ritalin, Lithium, or Thorzine…” _sounds in the distance coming closer_ “Errr…!

With the autotuning, grunts and grrs, jersey shore accent and heavy processing I can’t understand why this talented young lady is getting so much grief in this thread. ---

Three minutes. This place is amazing. ---

If you think my three minutes was fast, just imagine how quickly I would have been on it if it had been a Ke$ha song. ---

Also, don’t ask me to listen to it twice, but that twang is All Bayonne, baby… ---

Y’know, I never noticed the “grrr!” in the [UK version](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inwAc-ZBpx0). I listened to enough of it to find out that, yes, it’s there too. And now I’m deeply amused by the differences in the two videos - is that what our record companies (UK) really think would appeal to the US market? ---
