About a month ago, I let a coworker borrow my phone because he was tired of his music. Later, he came into my cubicle and started making fun of me for having LEN’s “Steal my Sunshine” on there.
Today, I borrowed his phone. Five songs in, and it’s “Yeah-ah-ahahah, it’s a party in the USA!”
It’s an unrealistic person who makes fun of another person’s music; we’ve all got a “Thong Song” somewhere on our iPod (and for the record, I LOVE that song - “Thongthethongthongthong…” ).
Well I looked up that song, its utter tripe, no, its worse than that, nope, its even worse than that.
No matter how much I lower my ideas of how crap a song can be, this song reaches below that, and with quite some ease, honestly, I haven’t come across something quite so shite in a long time, its so bad in so many ways and on so many principles, its not got one single redeeming feature, even the singer is nothing special, its not even teen fantasy under the bedclothes material.
The song is the best case for censorship ever, far exceeding anything wikileaks will ever publish.
I am truly torn as to whether “Party in the USA” is actually more, less or equally embarassing as “Steal my Sunshine”. At least Miley is from this decade…
“Thong Song” is a classic and always will be, though.
So what if it’s no Beethoven? It’s cute and peppy, though the tempo could be bit faster. At least it doesn’t have a shrill squeaky singing as does Party in the USA.
Hey! That’s a good song! Besides, it’s one of the few songs that I can sing along with without embarrassing myself because it stays within the same octave.
