tv commercial.
Then lady gaga hit. One part Madonna....one part Cher....one part transexual burlesque show....the god damn chick was weird. Is she super talented? No. But she's insanely creative and her songs are catchy.
So Christina aguilera showed her true colors and did it again. The chameleon of pop music assumed the identity of what is now the trend. She decided "I was Britney....I can be lady gaga now too" and put out the ironically titled "not myself tonight." have you ever been yourself, Christina? Do you even know what that means?
The saddest part is: she's 10x more gifted than the people she replicates....and in most cases, the musical style doesn't lend itself to her big voice. ANYONE can sing this shit with all the processing and auto-tuning channels it runs through....but BITCH CAN SING, man....for some reason though, she has chosen not to showcase that....
Listen to how that sounds. THAT WOULD BE LIKE GEORGE CARLIN, ARGUABLY THE GREATEST STAND-UP COMEDIAN OF ALL-TIME, SAYING "YES. MY MATERIAL IS BRILLIANT, EDGY AND FUCKING HILARIOUS....BUT I THINK I'M GOING TO VIDEO TAPE ANDREW DICE CLAY'S NURSERY RHYMES AND MEMORIZE THEM SO I CAN DO THAT INSTEAD.
Is it the same thing? No. Would christina's original music be any good?probably not. But in a WORLD OF AUTO-TUNE AND REALLY AWFUL KINDA RAP VALLEY GIRL SHIT** if you CAN actually sing, is that something to be ashamed of? It's not like you're writing anything anyway, christina.....Take off that silly mask, put on a mini-skirt and do something original....for once in your god damn life...even if that means telling your writers/managers/handlers "I'm tired of doing other peoples' act. I've got talent and a fanbase. Let's try something new."
*I'm not saying any of those first bands are terribly original...just saying coldplay made pussy rock popular at a time pussy rock wasn't popular. Everyone borrows from somewhere. Music's formula is pretty well set.
**I'm looking at you, Kesha. Your shit sounds like the first five seconds of sir mix alot's "baby got back" mixed with kangaroos raping eachother's mouths. Please die in a fire.
