Here ya go infidels for all of you who have decided to wear red today. A Rose. Today is the Hallmark day that folks are supposed to think about Love. Of course, folks should be thinking about it everyday. But we have to keep the flower, greeting cards, and Godiva Chocolate folks in business. Anyway, today is a perfect day for another round of compare and contrast. Today's theme is love. Let us compare the lyrics of a current hit by the artist (ahem) Fergie called: London Bridge:
All my girls get down on the floor, Back to back, drop it down real low.I’m such a lady, but I’m dancing like a ho, ‘Cause you know
I don’t give a fuck, so here we go!
How come every time you come around,
My London, London bridge, wanna go down like,
London, London, London, we goin’ down like…
Now As The drinks start pouring, And my speech start slurring,
Everybody start looking real good.
Now As The drinks start pouring, And my speech start slurring,
Everybody start looking real good.
Grey goose got your girl feeling loose.
Now I’m wishin’ that I didn’t wear these shoes. (I hate heels)
It’s like every time I get up on the dew,
Paparazzi put my business in the news.
And I’m like get up out my face, (oh shit)
'fore I turn around and spray your ass with mace. (oh shit)
My lips make you wanna have a taste. (oh shit)
You got that?
I got the bass.
Really nice huh? You should see the video. Now, for the contrast, lyrics by the Eagles:And I’m like get up out my face, (oh shit)
'fore I turn around and spray your ass with mace. (oh shit)
My lips make you wanna have a taste. (oh shit)
You got that?
I got the bass.
I was standing>------------------------------------------------------------
All alone against the world outside
You were searching
For a place to hide
Lost and lonely
Now you’ve given me the will to survive
When we’re hungry...love
will keep us alive
Don’t you worry
Sometimes you’ve just gotta let it ride
The world is changing
Right before your eyes
Now I’ve found you
There’s no more emptiness inside
When we’re hungry...love will keep us alive
I would die for you
Climb the highest mountain
Baby, there’s nothing I wouldn’t do
I was standing
All alone against the worlk outside
You were searching
For a place to hide
Lost and lonely
Now you’ve given me the will to survive
When we’re hungry...love will keep us alive
Is there any hope infidels? Is Music dead? Is the love song dead? -- can someone save it! Will the record companies market it? Is "dancin' like a ho" something to strive for?
Later folks
