What's with all the S-P-E-L-L-I-N-G in current music?

Seriously, W-to the-T-to the-F is going on?

I dunno. If you ask me, that shit is B-A-N-A-N-A-S.

Which, as a snack, are T- to the-A-to the-S-T-Y, tasty.

Today’s kids are all about literacy.

Not just current. Try D-I-V-O-R-C-E for instance.

Today’s artists are just looking for a little R-E-S-P-E-C-T.

S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y Night!

M is for the many things . . . .

I don’t know what you’re talking about.

Some examples would help.

M-I-C see you real soon!

…Nah

These lyricists just want to spare you from having to consult your dictionary (scroll down a tad).

What an appropriate post. What’s the new song that does this?

Spelling in music usually S-U-C-K-S, but look at the bright side: “This shit is bananas/B-A-N-A-N-A-S!” is the funniest thing in recent music history.

L-O-L-A Lola…

B
I
N-G-O
and Bingo was his name-o.

It’s a F - A - D.

Has someone been playing Fergalicious too often?

Her name was:

G
L
O
R
I
I
I
I…

G L O R I A

Maybe the difference these days is that songs are spelled in teh l33tsp33k.

Gabe Saporta, the lead singer of Midtown and Cobra Starship did a dead-on parody of this song, called “Hollaback Boy.” When it gets to the spelling part, his version goes, “This shit is… Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! S-U-P-E-R-C-A-L-A-F-R-A … What?!” and then stops trying to spell and drops the idea completely. :smiley:
