Imma Be Up Top

    Finally, Ke$ha's monster has slipped from the top spot of the Billboard charts. It held the throne for a good two months and may very well force it's way up for a few more on-and-off weeks. But the continuous reign of the terrible tune has ended, and can only fall further down the slopes, hopefully (though unlikely) into obscurity.

P. Diddy Must Feel Pretty Bad in the Morning.....

    Yes, my tirade continues. Normally I wouldn't be as caught up on a song so negatively, but it's just...... so terrible! And still, it remains on the top of the charts! I wonder if my animosity towards it inversely affects popular opinion. I would love to have a serious talk to someone who genuinely loves the song, but based on the lyrics I have a feeling I would get the same result by jumping in front of a bus.

Need a Lyrical Miracle! Part 1

    I am displeased to announce that Ke$ha's "Tik Tok" not only was the first number one of the new decade, but has thus far held the spot for the entire month of January. In case you missed the derisive banter, here's my schpeel about it. This, however, certainly isn't a post about revisiting former topics (still too new to be doing that methinks!), but if we're talking about bad lyrics, you can pretty much select any line out of that song. And we, indeed, will be talking bad lyrics here.

A New Decade (+Up Top)

    Another ten years have passed. Music has long been grouped by the decade songs were released in, with various genres being associated with the appropriate era. The 80's perhaps are best known for new wave and disco, the 90's for grundge/alternative and bubble gum pop. While it may be a little early to declare a trend for the newly finished ten-year set, the most obvious rumblings I can see are the rise of heavy electronic beats, auto-tune, and Indie music.
