Music: DIE ANTWOORD ON TOUR
Celebrité: Taylor Swift hurt John Mayer’s feelings
John Mayer and Taylor Swift: A match made in tabloid heaven
I mean, shit. Yes, John Mayer had a couple of wild years there, but haven’t we all? John Mayer, in an interview with Rolling Stone, said he was “humiliated” by Taylor Swift’s song “Dear John”. Take a look at the lyrics:
“Dear John, I see it all, now it was wrong / Don’t you think 19 is too young to be played by your dark twisted games, when I loved you so?”
Mayer then goes on to say he didn’t know she was heartbroken or anything. Speculation about their time together aside, it’s pretty rude as a widely successful artist to write songs that are so thinly veiled about your celebrity dates. Why would anyone take a chance on dating her? If things went sour, she’d probably write a song called “Fuck You Dick Sucker: An Ode to My Ex” because he didn’t text her back right away.
Taylor Swift is the classic case of “I was bullied in high school, I’m a victim” who has now turned into the self righteous bully-victim. She gets hurt by a guy (ps everyone gets hurt in relationships, lady), plays victim, i.e. never at fault and writes a song trashing him. She’s done it to Joe Jonas AND took a stab at alleged boyfriend-stealer Camilla Belle in that one.( Slut shaming, nice move Taylor Swift! Female solidarity, right?) Taylor Lautner, John Mayer, and who the fuck else knows because I don’t follow her music.
I’ve never been a fan of Taylor Swift. I can appreciate her talent, but there’s something about her personality that is like broken glass in your mouth. At first it was kinda neat that she talked so much shit about her boyfriends, like a “fuck yeah, ex boyfriends suck!” type of deal. We can all get behind that. But after a while it became her ‘thing’. Trashing people after they’ve broken up with you over and over and over… yikes. Sounds like she needs some yoga and deep breathing somewhere in India for a while and a little growing up to do.
Watch this now: Your weekend luv inspiration
Find a lover this weekend. And if they know what this song is, they are fucking awesome and you can keep them. Otherwise, next!
Listen: Alex Anwandter “Como puedes vivir contigo mismo”
“How can you live with yourself” en español. This. IS. SO. FUCKING. GOOD. Holy shit. New favorite song. Freaking out. It just makes me wanna twirl dance around my whole house in sequins and fur. LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE IT. It’s Chilean pop. HOLY SHIT.
It’s reminiscent of Scissor Sisters, but stands alone by itself so well too. OMFG.
Thanks K!!!!!!
Words of wisdom
Running for your life is the only acceptable time to run without an iPod.
Listen: Kodacrome “Dance Malady”
Check out this live studio version of “Dance Malady” by Kodacrome. It goes from cray to cray cray to crazy sexy cool right before your eyes. It’s also cool to see an electronic group doing their thing live instrumentally. If you dig, check out some of their other electro tunes over at their website, because their other songs are bag of fun electropop goodies.
Listen: Haphduzn & Dimitry Killstorm “Brand New Nostalgia”
“Skinny jeans, can you believe this shit?”
Take a listen and a look at Haphduzn & Dimitry Killstorm’s “Brand New Nostalgia”. It’s Minneapolis hip hop done crazy good. I don’t know Dimitry, but I have met Haphduzn (pronounced half dozen, I was confused for like a week at first) when he performed with my friend Illab as the fab duo Conflict of Interest. Super nice and super cool dudes, check everything out!
Celebrité: Chris Brown’s new song title is shocking
Who the fuck in their right mind would ever believe a song called “Sweet Love” by Chris Brown? I guess if “Sweet Love” means “I’m a Fucking Dick” then he’s got it spot on! He is such a butthole sniffer, seriously. Beats the shit out of Rihanna, calls her a slut in a song, and then releases a song called “Sweet Love”. I’ve got some more realistic song titles for good ol’ CB to work on:
I Suck
I Don’t Deserve Anything I Have
My Fans are Delusional
I Don’t Sing Live (But I’ll Dance a Lot and Look Tired Doing It)
Remember When I Beat Up My Girlfriend (Me Too)
Jerkface (Imma get me some of dat)
I’ve seen everything now. Good Lord. Oy vey. Mamma mia. Dios mio. Chris Brown needs to please stop everything he’s doing. His anger issues, Rihanna, Good Morning America and God knows what else, are so sketchy man. Why is the industry promoting him? People make mistakes, but this guy is a fucking piece of dirty gum stuck inside a truck stop toilet that people are still chewing on. Gross. In the words of the great Liz Lemon, “I reject Chris Brown’s comeback!”
(and yeah, that is a video for Sisqo. The chord progressions are cool)
Madonna covers Gaga’s “Born This Way” on MDNA tour!!!!
HOLY SHIZ. The Queen of the Pop universe mashed together her amazing hit “Express Yourself” with Mother Monster’s similarly chord-progressioned love hit “Born This Way.” So very cool of Madonna, because it’s both an honor for Madonna to sing your song in concert AND a little “hey bitch, that’s MY chord progression. And everyone WILL know it.” I love my pop queens. Fucking fabulous. Watch it here on perez!!
Listen: Chris Malinchak’s “Brooklyn Bounce”
Sounds like what would be in your head walkin’ the streets of Brooklyn after a caffeine buzz.
