Fergalicious!
Posted by Uhgii
On the radio recently (in a friends car, so I couldn't escape it), I couldn't help but hear this horrible tune that embodies everything that music should never be. "Fergie Fergalicious" by Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas. This song has topped off at #9 on the US Pop Charts fairly recently, which is sort of disturbing. Is this truly the type of music that a large majority of the US people believe is good? I asked many people about how they felt about this style of music, and they claim it's all about the lyrics... so here's a snippit of the song:
"Fergalicious def-, Fergalicious def-, Fergalicious def-
Fergalicious definition make them boys go crazy
They always claim they know me
Comin' to me call me Stacy (Hey Stacy)
I'm the F to the E, R, G the I the E
And can't no other lady put it down like me"
Amazing. It's nice to know she's such a fantastic lyricist. At least she can spell her funky nickname out loud, right? It's almost as bad as "My Humps," which was also a chart-topper. Or perhaps as hideous as Fergie herself.
I don't understand what happened to good music.
