^ I actually think that's a pretty decent song. Wouldn't mind listening to that if I was stuck in a place where I had to listen to the radio.

Yea, if you take it literally. I think it's more about fame and about the hate that comes with it.

But I admit I like it mostly because of melodies and the music ;)

I just don't think Kanye is that deep (dude named his kid North for crying out loud), but I could see that interpretation.

"Let me take you to rio, rio
Fly'o the ocean like an eagle, eagle
And we can chill in my gazebo, gazebo
Oh oh oh oh oh, na na na"

Ester Dean going for the easy rhyme with gazebo ladies and gentlemen. Gazebo.

"The father's speak we might as well be castrated. (castrated)
Oh it feels so good from where I stand.
The one abstaining from all human needs and pleasantries is the one I'll never will be."

Luck as a Constant from Periphery. Spencer is one of my favorite singers and I love this song instrumentally but his lyrics generally aren't my favorite.

Taylor Swift - Out of the Woods

Nothing says shitty lyrics more than repeating yourself over and over because you couldn't think of anything else.

What? Like the Rise Today chorus?

I like the repetition better in this version:

Repetition is catchy. It's still a pop song.

Indeed. In the Taylor Swift song it's supposed to have that almost robotic sound. In WDTTW it does sound like "they couldn't think of anything else".

If we're talking pure creativeness, Myles Kennedy's lyrics they are not.

Creative and good are different things. He isn't very creative though. He's not like revolutionary. Solid lyricist though. I've heard much better, but plenty of worse lyricists are out there.

He hasn't sold out yet, though (only on a few). So props to him for that.

Myles' lyrics with The Mayfield Four were worlds better than nearly all of his AB lyrics. Way more emotional and introspective and interesting and creative. So he can write some amazing stuff. AB's lyrics are fine, but they aren't the best I've seen from him. Maybe it was a product of what was going on in his life at the time.

Shitty lyrics...

Stacy's mom has got it going on.
She's all I want and I've waited for so long.


The entirety of music should have been given a one month time out after that atrocity.
Another photobucket casualty... :(

I equate the music video to a tv appropriate themed stripper performance, thereby giving justification to the song. "For without shitty music, there would be nothing to strip to."
