Four Minutes to Save the World

I’ve been listening to the Madonna/Justin Timberlake single. The beat is great but the lyrics are absolutely stupid.

Workout Playlist

Waiting for supplements to kick in. Exported my workout playlist to a spreadsheet then used a CONCATENATE function to make it purdy: Playlist title: Lean, Sexy, Strong. ‘Spitfire’ by The Prodigy from Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned ‘Disposable Teens’ by Marilyn Manson from Holy Wood ‘New American Century’ by KMFDM from Hau Ruck ‘Real Thing’ by [...]

Drinking Song Enigma Stole from Amis Tribesman on YouTube

Remember the voice of Enigma? They ripped off a few swatches for their second (?) album. 1996 Atlanta Olympic theme song performed by Enigma used his voice without authorisation. Difang is an elder of Amis tribe in Taiwan, and people regard him as national treasure of Taiwan. [youtube]uROdVAV1zQo[/youtube]

Britney Spears, Blackout (2007)

The good news about Britney Spears’s new album, Blackout, is it isn’t nearly as terrible as you think it is going to be.

Me Against the Music (Britney/Madonna)

I really like the music and beats behind the Britney/Madonna song ‘Me Against the Music’. I just hate that they are both in the song. And Madonna’s supposed ‘challenge’ singing to Britney sounds thinner vocally than any of her strained pop opera in Evita. Same reason I love the beat behind ‘Slave 4 U’ but [...]

Jordin Sparks is Obese?

She ain’t obese: she’s a tall, thick, Amazon, sexy, sasquatch that can sing and once she gets a few more years will have the emotional base for a long long career. This lady is an idiot. Thanks God Melinda or Lakisha didn’t win (granted Lakisha probably is probably technically obese but at the same time [...]
