Kylie Minogue is the devil

“I Can’t Get It Out Of My Head”

Is that the most fucking appropriatly titled song ever? I think so. I heard it today, several hours ago. This is not unusual, as I hear it, and many other songs as well, several times per week.

But no, this one isn’t like other songs. I can’t get it out of my head. I’ve been through this before; I know what’s going to happen. I’ll be hearing this song in my head for the next couple days. It’s already ruined the part of today after which I heard it.

This happens every time. I hate it so much that once it finally does leave my head, I can’t even remember how it goes. Sometimes ignorance really is bliss.

I’m not the only one, either. My roommate was in the room at the time (poor soul!), and will be hearing it for at least the next today. My other apartmentmates, and my other friends, suffer from the same affliction.

And now the bastard is singing it out loud. Would any jury in the world convict me if I killed him? I doubt it; it’s a mercy killing at this point.

I wouldn’t mind so much if I could see the video. She’s hot, and even if the sound is on, I don’t hear the song. But with no video, I’m totally fucked.

So, Ms. Minogue, I would like to say this to you: Enjoy your fame, your fans, and your royalty checks. Sic transit gloria mundi. One year from now, you will have disappeared from the American airwaves. You have no staying power, because your only talent is annoying me. Fuck, I wish I could come up with some eloquent denouncement of you and the hellspawn you’ve produced. But I can’t, because your damn song is preventing me from concentrating!

Gah, I hate this shit. Somebody make it stop.

She did disappear for awhile (at least over here) after she outgrew her Debbie-Gibson-wannabe persona back in the '80s. She had several failed affairs, tried her hand and being an “indie” recording artist, and attempted several other combacks without success. She remakes herself into a “disco diva”, and wham – she’s baaaaaack…

I personally can’t stand the song. I tried listening to it once in the car and nearly tore the radio out!

La la la, la la la-la la. La la la, la la la-la la. La la la, la la la-la la. La la la, la la la-la la.

What do you expect from the woman who brought us that 80’s staple “The Locomotion?”

Dammit, cercaria, you’re not helping! Even those damn syllables are enough to put it back in my head! I can’t wait for her to disappear again…

I liked her best when Nick Cave was smashing her head in with a rock.

Okay, I’m officially frightened. You must’ve sent your hatred for that particular song through the air in brainwaves or something, 'cause I was thinking about it today without having heard it in weeks. Yes, randomly thinking of THAT song. What the hell? Why would I just randomly think of a shitty Kylie Minogue (redundant, I know) song?

And the video, which I’ve seen a couple times. I’m not particularly attracted to her, but if you like barely-clad Kylie dancing around stupidly, you’ll like it. And stupid back-up dancers. Who the hell choreographed? Come to think of it, who was the freaking costume designer on that nightmare? Oy.

But she sure is a cute lil’ devil, ain’t she.

Any guys reading this thread that haven’t seen it before: make sure you swing by her web site and check out the Agent Provocateur commercial in the “Video” section.

[sub][sup]You might want to check this out in the privacy of your own home. Oh, did I not mention – it’s a lingerie commercial.[/sub][/sup]

I’m sorry. I will try to use my powers for good from now on.

[sub]la la la, la la la-la…[/sub]
Oops. Sorry. :smiley:

You think it’s easy to get a Kylie Minogue song out of your head? You should be so lucky, lucky lucky lucky.

Auuuugh!

Oh my…

I’m tellin’ ya!

We took her aside a few years ago and suggested that (while we’d miss her most awfully, honestly) maybe she’d like to go overseas and bother the rest of the world. And she did. And now you have to put up with her too. Bwahaha, suckers!

ultrafilter - you’ll find the follow-up song is even more head-penetrating.

“It’s in your eeeyyyeeesss…”

And it is. In your eyes, and in your head, and in your brain, and in every single pore of your body, harder to get rid of than last night’s garlic…

Luckily I like both songs. Otherwise I would have had to split my own head open with a meat-cleaver by now.

I feel like the luckiest person alive right now.

I have no idea who this person is, if I have heard any of her songs I have no recollection of them. I am completely and utterly clueless. I don’t listen to the radio (except for the Classical station, when it comes in). I have eclectic and unusual musical tastes, and this person (whoever she is) is not among my tastes, apparently.

Well, carry on with your expressions of torment about her. And envy me my oblivious ignorance! :smiley:

If Kylie Minogue is the devil, I don’t want to be good. I’m going to go watch that Agent Provocateur video a few more times.

I gotta get me some of that !! - damn that sizzles
[/hijack]

ultrafilter - so you’ve got the problem of a tune that’s driving you to distraction. Well, now because of ‘that link’ I’ve now got a tune and a visual that will make driving to work in tomorrows rush hour a tricky task - think I’ll take the train

White Lightning - my hearfelt thanks for providing me with tonights, ahem, mind picture for, ahem those, ahem personal activities.

I’m shocked by the power… oooo… shocked by the power of that song.

[Men Behaving Badly]Kylie![/MBB]

Is the US only just discovering her then? She does have the best arse this side of Saturn.

I dunno… Didn’t Dick Nixon use this very same tallent to fuel an undead political life lasting several decades…? She may keep coming back to life, no matter the stakes driven through the heart of her career.

Laa la la la la la la la la la

Damn! Now I’ve got it, too…

Kylie Minogue is most definitely not the devil.

Because, as we all know, the devil has all the best tunes…

Tru-dat.
