Emonem!

Anyone got any thoughts on this compared to Shysties version of / riposte to, Dizzee’s I Luv You? I think there should be more response songs in modern pop given how misogynistic and homophobic most of it inherently is.

I haven't heard the Frankee song yet. It got crazy hate on the local R&B station. There seems to be a lot of Eamon love in this town.

The unironic kind, frighteningly enough.

True dat, but first there have to be more women and gay men in genres like hip-hop and garage to do the response songs. (And more love given to the ones who ARE there - I've only skimmed the grime thread, but Lady Fury is only mentioned like two or three times!) Shystie is wicked.

This song is great.

I heard the unedited version and it ruined the mystery for me.

I love Eamon's release of F**k It (I don't want you back. Frankee copied his version! I'm not saying it's a shit reply coz her song is wicked, but Eamon just rules! I love him and so do all my mates. I love the way they have replied to each other, but is Eamon's song for Frankee? Apparently I heard it was fro another ex-girlfriend called Andrea? Is this right? Anyway Eamon's song is better - I love it and Frankee's song comes as a second in my personal chart at the moment!
Cara xx Love to all :P (I'm not a weirdo by the way lol!!)

Macho rubbish BUT the version sung by that bird is just the same (where she's telling a guy to get fucked) so maybe it's about time you had a song where a guy's telling some nasty lass to stick it.

omg omg omg omg omg

so the new single is the opening track, "I Love Them."

Only he's added a word to the title (and chorus).

It's now "I Love Them Ho's."

The video is on launch.com.

omg.

Milk Dee is prominently displayed in the video, you Audio Two fans.

CeCe Peniston (Anthony Miccio), Saturday, 26 June 2004 13:48 (nineteen years ago) link

ok actually I just discovered that he didn't ADD the word "ho's" the promo copy I got when I reviewed this was clean so they had taken out the word "ho's" (what is up with that apostrophe?). For some reason they're keeping it now (at least on Launch). I really wish this was added after the fact.

Revive, as I just got a copy of the album.
It's terrible in a fascinating way. As I listen to it, I can TELL I'll be tired of it in two days; but it's great for the moment.
Utterly disposable... just like he turned out to be.
Whence Eamon these days? Opening for William Hung?

Forksclovetofu (Forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 20 October 2004 20:48 (nineteen years ago) link

Though truth be told, there may be a few keepers on here: "Fuck You" is still pretty tasty and I like "Get Off my Dick" and "Ho-Wop" enough that they may stay in rotation.
"Fuck You" seems like a likely OMGWTFLOL winner of the future.
Forget dub Hung, E. should be opening for Snow.

I heard this blasting out of someone's car today.

Ho-wop lives on.

Fuck this song, I don't want it back.

Listening to "I Love Them Hos," "Over And Over" and "Fuck It." Miss this guy so much.

"Over And Over" is actually called "On & On." It was recently sampled chipmunk-style by Flo Rida!

ugh I just had the displeasure of hearing this goddamn song again this morning for the first time in 4 years! god I thought it was horrible when.

but whether or not the Frankee version was staged (uh, it totally was), some really lame disses throughout. She faked orgasms? OMG AN "EVERY WOMAN IN THE WORLD" SHOCKER. even my most recent ex admitted she did on occasion (but wouldn't tell me if she did with me, lol).

"What I did was your fault somehow"= I'M RIGHT BUT KANT BE BOTHERED TO COME UP WITH A SUPPORTING ARGUMENT SO LIKE FUK U...

lol at the "your sex was wack". i'd rather be told I sucked in bed by a female than be told nothing at all by a gym towel or a sock....

Ballistic, Sunday, 7 March 2010 18:03 (fourteen years ago) link

"fuck What I did, it was your fault somehow" - this line made me totally hate frankee and decide eamon probably was right for calling her out as a ho. anyway i found this song mildly amusing when it came out, and i'm kinda getting nostalgic for it now. wonder if it's still on my hard drive somewhere? (probably not)

messiahwannabe, Monday, 8 March 2010 12:06 (fourteen years ago) link

That's like getting nostalgic for having vomit and turds thrown at you.

aww, now you're making me remember the first time i saw gg allen, bless.

what, you guys never got screwed over by a ho and wanted to listen to a song that succinctly summed up your feelings for the bitch?

messiahwannabe, Tuesday, 9 March 2010 10:39 (fourteen years ago) link

Wish Eamon could take Mark Linkous' place...

I just wish he hadn't adopted the "ilxor" moniker (ilxor), Tuesday, 9 March 2010 14:11 (fourteen years ago) link
