DT: My bad - it's not actually called "Sunflower", it seems (or it doesn't show up that way on uTube, but DOES show up that way in a lyrics search!) - YouTube lists it as "I'd Like That".

Quite trite. Again, it sticks in your head, though.

As to Lady Gaga, I don't hater her. I thought the meat suit was a minor piece of performance-art genius. She is, after all, being marketed just like fresh meat, for all her fans to devour.

As to smashing the corporate hall of mirrors (if it's the music industry, shouldn't it be a mirrored ball, or BALL of mirrors, though? ), look into FanTrail™, a new "app" launched at SXSW that offers fans a one-on-one point of contact with their favorite bands, and which offers artists a one-to-one point of communication with their fans. No fan clubs, no record labels, just you and your bands. And iTunes, if you really want. ;)

Must be Kwickie's personal theme song...

I lead, you follow.

And the Kwickie copy cat streak continues....

Not 1 original thought... per usual.

I would agree that Lady Gaga doesn't impress me anymore than any of those other pop artists, I wanna take a ride on your disco stick? Pa-lease. But her lyrics do make me laugh, just like Friday's lyrics make me laugh, I mean, a disco stick? That's funny because ... where did that even come from? But ... partyin partyin yeah! I do think though that Lady Gaga's lyrics are at least more original, she's the only one who'd call it a disco stick, and she sings decently, where as Rebecca Black sounds rather like some sort of automaton, very nazel, but hey, good singing isn't necessary for a hit, is it.

Good for her though, I do like the idea that anyone, anyone, can get famous if they put out something that gets attention.

Not attacking Lady Gaga, just the machine that created her, and Madonna. It feels threatened by random people on youtube.

Pop music itself is inane. Remember the Axis of Awesome?

ETA: Creation stars don't write their own lyrics. Probably Avril Lavigne came up with it on an off day ;)

Yes, I post an XTC video.

And you?


You post...


AN XTC VIDEO!


How very original of you. You're my original follower! :D

If you ever said "Support the Troops!", you are a socialist. You've taken money from me, by force and at gunpoint, and you've given it to people who are on a mission I don't support, and are murdering others in my name, and I am given no choice in the matter.

My post went in a totally new direction, and it burns you up to admit it.

So you won't.

You'll just squirm and dance, and hope no one notices your pettiness and 'simplistic' replies.

AU and Kwicks like XTC? Who'd have thought... more alike than different... funny... here's an XTC song for both:

That girl in that last video is hot, and reminiscent of Emma Peel
