I'll confess... look, I didn't mean to ok, it just happened. I let the dogs out. I thought I closed the gate but it didn't latch right or something. Anyway, that's not an excuse, just an explanation. I AM sorry, but I can't believe after all these years this is still an issue. We found all the dogs too BTW, it was only like 4 dogs, ok! I'm not gonna say anymore I just wanted to own up to it, that's all.

Shakey pulled Ashlee Simpson's name out of thin air as someone famous for being successful despite lack of talent, but that's more for the SNL debacle than her actual music (although "Pieces of Me" is a total piece of shit, just not a notorious one like "Friday" or even "Who Let The Dogs Out")

are we far enough away from "who let the dogs out" that "letting the dogs out" jokes are funny again? dad joke enthusiasts would love to know

I mean, I appreciate and understand 100% Jordan's defense of "Thong Song", but I was also on Spring Break in Texas during March 2000 and heard that goddamn song roughly 300 times per day and it was positively destroyed for me by that experience.

i've always like "thong song" - had it down as "favorite song" in my 5th grade yearbook - but i never really noticed how well it functioned as a straight-up r&b song until i heard it alongside the rest of shipley's top 50 r&b songs of the decade list

"pieces of me" and "thong song" are legit great (also, i thought we as a society were past the whole shameful ashlee-as-figure-of-fun phase?). i don't know how either could crop up when talking about the worst of anything. "friday" is highly entertaining. "mambo no 5" was annoying but it's based on a good tune. "who let the dogs out?" is actively hateful.

Ashlee Simpson. Prefer inoffensive MOR to extremely offensive and annoying novelty dreck. And "The Thong Song" is largely tuneless...

"Better Off" is A+++ amazing.
"Piece of Me" is one of her weaker singles I think, and only really makes much sense in the context of Autobiography, but its song-writing is still great: "Make me happy it's your mission/And you won't stop till I'm there" - the guy loves her so much that he tolerates all her flaws AND enduringly keeps going till she gets her orgasm.

― Tuomas, Wednesday, 6 April 2011 11:12 (thirteen years ago) link
Before coming into this topic I was wondering what "Pieces of Me" was doing in here because it is largely innofensive MOR type music.
Which is why I went for it. The other songs are all offensive, and inoffensive is, after all, much better than offensive.

like i know the song is about sex, but surely the construction of the song isn't a cutesy way of saying "i want to orgasm on the kitchen, on the floor."

still "Thong Song", though I suspect "Pieces of Me" and "Friday" would slide down and that underrated *classic* "Mambo #5" would skedaddle up to #2 if this was polled again
"Thong Song's" mandate only grows.
