Am I Wrong is one of my favorite top 40 songs this year. I do feel like it's overproduced with the synth sounds that come in about 7 seconds into the track
this is really good. but it seems weird calling radiohead/thom yorke projects simply "really good." nothing was jaw droppingly exquisite like some tracks on In Rainbows though
exactly. i'm cool with coldplay, because they readily acknowledge that they are the most mainstream band in the world. and while they are "pop-y" and such you can't deny that they take risks with their sound at least some of the time (even if they crash and burn)
m&s fans bother me more than the actual band,because they think they're some sort of special snowflake for listening to guys who wear tweed vests and not ke$ha
in the words of actual riot grrrl kathleen hanna.:
"Beyoncé isn’t Beyoncé because she reads comments on the Internet. Beyoncé is in Ibiza, wearing a stomach necklace, walking hand in hand with her hot boyfriend. She’s going on the yacht and having a mimosa. She’s not reading shitty comments about herself on the Internet, and we shouldn’t either. I just think, Would Beyoncé be reading this? No, she would just delete it or somebody would delete it for her. What I really need to do is close the computer and then talk back to that voice and say, Fuck you. I don’t give a shit what you think. I’m Beyoncé. I’m going to Ibiza with Jay-Z now, fuck off. Being criticized is part of the job, but seeking it out isn’t. That’s our piece to let go."
I'm no expert, but isn't progressive feminism being able to do what you want to do? Whether it means wearing ankle skirts and turtlenecks or gyrating in a leather leotard?
