Check out the latest controversy over Spears' latest tune "If you seek Amy". Apparently the lyrics are not for 5 year olds (not even the title).
Radio has come a long way since Jagger spoke "tryin' to make some girl" in (I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction, which caused such a stir mid '60's. |

If she gets homesick she can stay in my mobile home anytime,I'm like Danny Shirley of Confederate Railroad,I like trashy women,I'll fix up a room in my single wide for her with every thing she needs,a sterno stove and a coleman lantern,she can feel free to run around in my yard in her birthday suit[bet she will love that]without the cops bothering her.They are afraid of this neighborhood[the last one was never seen again,after I caught him poking around in my garden.] I rather have ONE trashy woman that KNOWS what she doing,than those seventy two virgins I keep hearing about,At least I won't have to blow myself up to hell and back for her. DYKBC.

So who said 'hate'?
She's confused, and has serious 'entourage stroking' problems,
but there's no hate involved here.

| If you google the lyrics for that song it shows there where eight writers who put that masterpiece together. Quite possibly the dumbest song ever. |

Uh, NOT!  Foolish girl. Not my type at all.
I found a recording of the song on YouTube. It's the most unnatural sounding example of pitch correction I've ever heard. Doesn't sound remotely human or musical. If I were the producer, I'd be embarrassed to have my name associated with it.

b0b no doubt there is pitch correction,
but this is intentionally moding the voice
for weird effect. Anything to be different
than last weeks pop starlet's hit.
Bad song, bad production and bad video.
A triple threat, and sadly a likely hit.
Walt Disney rolls in his cryogenic crypt; one more time.

Guys, it's WHAT SHE DOES! She's a dancer, who got off track, and has little singing talent. But the "machine" wants her to be successful, and she will be. Look at Christina Aguilera, by comparison. GREAT voice, and she's stopped running around half-nekkid. Poor girl's having to rely on talent...
And besides, what business is it to a bunch of old steel guitar players? Y'all gonna play a Britney tune in between Ray Price numbers? |

Actually my last regular band DID cover one of her tunes.
'Oops', if memory serves.
But as a 60's blues style with latin intro.
It was a sort of 'shut up and leave us be tune'
countering the mindless requests of people who didn't
listen to what we DID actually play and would shut up.

I take a dim view of censorship of most kinds. It's a little weird to me that harmless crudeness is attacked so relentlessly while the supreme court is preserving the rights of the media to represent falsehoods as news. I know this is getting perilously close to discussing politics. But my point here is artistic. I have always enjoyed seeing people find ARTFUL ways around the censors. One of my favorites is the Three Stooges if at first you don't succeed, just keep on sucking until you do succeed. But this song ISN'T an artful dodge, although the concept had great possibilities.

Anyone of yinz listened to Peter Cooper's song called "One by One"?
I don't think that those lyrics are that correct either.

| If Robert Plant could only give her "every inch of my love" maybe she'd get some "satisfaction" - she needs to have her lemon squeezed til the juice runs down her leg, or at least give the girl a jellyroll. Umm, this isn't all that new, really.... if she won't do "it", her sister will.... ummm.... |

If you want to hear a song being brutally murdered, decimated and butchered, listen to Little Richard's version of "Silent Night". 
Criminal charges should have been laid. |

This kind of stuff has been going on for years,back in the 50's when they started calling the music we teens loved[and our parents hated] rock and roll,to this day very few knew what the term ROCK AND ROLL really meant,DYKBC.

Creamed Corn,
Mudshark Dancing lessons
and Dynamo Hum.
She needs some sugar in her bowl.
Then theres Mae West a singer not just actress
As said to Charlie McCarthy, with Edgar Bergen.
Mae:
Why don’t you come up … uh, home with me now, honey?
I’ll let you play in my woodpile. (Laughter.)
Charlie:
Well, I’m not feeling so well tonight.
I’ve been feeling nervous lately.
I think I’m gonna have a nervous breakdown.
Whuup! There I go.
Mae:
So, good-time Charlie’s gonna play hard to get?
Well, yuh can’t kid me. You’re afraid of women.
Your Casanova stuff is just a front, a false front.
Charlie:
Not so loud, Mae, not so loud!
All my girlfriends are listening.
Mae:
Oh, yeah! You’re all wood and a yard long …
Charlie: (weakly): Yeah.
Mae:
Yuh weren’t so nervous and backward when yuh came up to see me at my apartment.
In fact, yuh didn’t need any encouragement to kiss me.
Charlie: Did I do that?
Mae:
Why, yuh certainly did.
I got marks to prove it. (Snickering from audience) An’ splinters, too. (Laughter). ...
I think this got her a ten year ban from radio.
And select quotes:
When I'm good I'm very good, but when I'm bad I'm better.
A hard man... is good to find
It's not the men in my life that counts -- it's the life in my men.
He who hesitates is last.
I go for two kinds of men. The kind with muscles, and the kind without.
So many men... so little time
Too much of a good thing... can be wonderful
Why don't you come on up and see me sometime.. when I've got nothin' on but the radio.
I generally avoid temptation unless I can't resist
A man in love is like a clipped coupon -- it's time to cash in.
A man in the house... is worth two in the street
Marriage is a fine institution, but I'm not ready for an institution.
It's better to be looked over, than overlooked
Give a man a free hand... and he'll run it all over you
Good sex is like good Bridge...
If you don't have a good partner, you'd better have a good hand
To err is human -- but it feels divine
His mother should have thrown him away...and kept the stork
I don't like myself, I'm crazy about myself.
"Goodness, what beautiful diamonds !"
Goodness had nothing to do with it, dearie
I like two kinds of men: domestic and imported
When a girl goes wrong, men go right... after her
I'm the lady who works at Paramount all day... and Fox all night.
Is that a gun in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?
I used to be Snow White... but I drifted
Save a boyfriend for a rainy day, and another,
in case it doesn't rain
I've been rich and I've been poor...
Believe me, rich is better
It's hard to be funny...when you have to be "clean"
I like my clothes to be tight enough to show I'm a woman...
but loose enough to show I'm a lady.
She's the kind of girl who climbed the ladder of success... wrong by wrong
You may admire a girl's curves on the first introduction...
but the second meeting shows up new angles
You can say what you like about long dresses,
but they cover a multitude of shins.
Those who are easily shocked... should be shocked more often
When choosing between two evils,
I always like to try the one I've never tried before.
You ought to get out of those wet clothes...
and into a dry martini
Seems she sang Santa Baby too.
'Hurry down the chimeny to me."

Have you ever seen a lassie go this way and that?
All the lasses smile at me when comin' through the rye.
In Amsterdam there lived a maid. And she was mistress of her trade.
