Pop Culture Woman: How about a mini summer music discussion?

How about a mini summer music discussion?

I have a word for most of the music out today. "CRAPTASTIC." Meaning it's horrible yet strangely addicting. I think most hot singles are craptastic. This week it's Nelly Furtado's "Promiscuous" which is incredibly horrible with a terrible message. Like "Lady lumps," "The Thong Song," etc., this single is trash. And, yes, it's easy to dance to and hoochies everywhere are enjoying gyrating to it at the club much to the delight of the single sweaty guys looking for cheap feels. I remember those club days very well.

However what's on heavy rotation for me this week is the Gnarls Barkley single, "Crazy." It's for the adult crowd although it can't be too unhip because it's been all over MTV lately. It's an absolutely brilliant single. They lyrics are something I can relate to because I went crazy once. I'm still pretty crazy but in a much more positive light. These are some good lyrics and the beat is A+. Highly recommend it for those of you out there looking for something that isn't just craptastic but truly fantastic.

Gnarls Barkley Crazy


I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that place.
Even your emotions had an echo
In so much space
And when you're out there
Without care,
Yeah, I was out of touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough
I just knew too much

Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Possibly [video version]
Probably [CD version]

And I hope that you are having the time of your life
But think twice, that's my only advice
Come on now, who do you, who do you, who do you, who do you think you are,
Ha ha ha bless your soul
You really think you're in control

Well, I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me

My heroes had the heart to Lose their lives out on a limb
And all I remember is thinking, I want to be like them
Ever since I was little, ever since I was little it looked like fun
And it's no coincidence I've come
And I can die when I'm done

Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Possibly
