rolling pop 2011

sorry I just love this track and I'd never actually seen the video before

"I Gotta Feeling" is better than either of those songs and I hate "I Gotta Feeling".

i think the only BEP song i properly like to date is "my humps" :/

It's "Imma Be" and nothing else.

("Joints & Jams" is what's up tho.)

"Edge of Glory" is the only song in the current top 5 I like and I only kind of like it.

I be hatin'.

given how boring adele fundamentally is, "rolling in the deep" being okay feels like some sort of minor triumph

"Meet Me Half Way" was great.

Meet Me Halfway was a great chorus paired with some of the most embarrassing, half-assed verses I've heard in years:

I spent my time just thinkin thinkin thinkin bout you
Every single day yes, i'm really missin' missin' you
And all those things we use to use to use to do
Hey girl, wuz up, it use to be just me and you
I spent my time just thinkin thinkin thinkin bout you
Every single day, yes i'm really missin missin you
And all those things we use to use to use to do
Hey girl wuz up, wuz up, wuz up, wuz up

should we redo the best Black Eyed Peas single poll?

most embarrassing, half-assed verses are the best parts of BEP songs

monday, tuesday, wednesday thursday

most embarrassing, half-assed verses are the best parts of BEP songs

take that shit to RONG 2

yeah the best parts are Fergie's bizarre enunciation...in embarrassing,half-assed verses

does anyone else think that ne-yo's phoned-in chorus on "give me everything" sounds uncomfortably like "hero" by mariah carey

omg btw i can now confirm that just can't get enough is NOT the bep song i like

i mean it's fine but

i was liiike ... who is this

were you thinking of a different song upthread or did you just change your mind about it?

i was thinking of a different song. i was in the office and it came on the radio, and i asked my coworker "who the hell is this anyway" and she said "BEP"

do they even have another song on the radio right now?

besides the "Time of My Life" one? i don't think so.

you know what - it honestly might have been "i just can't get enough"

i think i kind of like that song sometimes ... :/

i just came to say hello just came on

i mean the first half and second half of "Just Can't Get Enough" are practically different songs so i can see how that could lead to confusion or you'd be hot and cold about it. i personally only really like the first half.

i rly don't know how i feel about all these songs. like that bruno mars song. what is that

yeah there's some sketchy shit on the radio these days

for real! it sounds like a banana boat commercial!

I f/w their new one "Don't Stop the Party"

lol ramzi

got this on repeat. really digging

I'm into it.

i just came to say hello just came on

was so happy when i heard this out last night

I know I mentioned it upthread, but where were all you "Hello" fans last summer? (I get it...no radio play, etc...but it was hardly a secret.)

I don't remember hearing/reading about it

what is "Hello"?

apparently a song by something called Dragonette and Martin Solveig that charted in a bunch of countries last year and is now climbing the Hot 100. more insurgent Eurodance i guess?

ship you might dig it -- it's as much rock as it is & dance

i compared it a few weeks ago to one of those dance remixes of a big kelly clarkson single except "hello" is great because the song was written in that fashion & not remixed

i heard some dragonette shit last year i dug

oh it was the fabian remix of the dragonette song 'easy'

Here's "Hello"

And here's the song they did together in 2009 (which I actually liked more)

Beyonce's trying to salvage her "Girls" song-- performed it on the Billboard Music Awards tonight

is it really "salvaging" if she was going to perform her current single on the next big awards show regardless of whether it was doing well on the charts or not?

I meant salvage the success of the song in the marketplace.

yea i mean hello is the kind of song that is soo obvious but it works

yeah, and my point is that "salvaging" is most likely an entirely exterior narrative, and she probably booked and started rehearsing that performance before the song was even out and would've done that song that way whether it was #1 on the charts or #100

lots of people being total sheep w/r/t dismissing "run the world"

more like total sheeit
