In the last two weeks I've heard two new popular songs that I HATED when I first heard them, but upon subsequent listenings of the songs, I've found myself singing along. WHY??? They're still bad. One's a German rap song (L.O.V.E.) that is half in English and sounds completely STUPID in German. The other one's a guy whinging about how he doesn't want some girl back (I don't want you back?). And he's not even singing. He's literally brokenly whinging. Ug. I'm disgusted with it.
And this is the only thing I can think to blog about today. How bad is THAT?

He is so BAD that he now has a following and is making music videos and on tour! The guys go to the concert to watch the girls that he has a back up - I still have not figured out why the girls are there!

Posted by: Amanda at May 1, 2004 05:11 AMJanine - which guy are you talking about? Mr. Hung or Eamon? By the way, I've actually seen a clip of this Mr. Hung singing. Another blogger was b*tching Katie Couric out for s p e a k i n g extra s l o w to him when he appearred on the Today show, and linked to a MSNBC clip of his performance. I think it's neat how enthusiatic he was and how much energy he put into it, but yea, he sucks. I think people are rooting for him because he's _special_.

Posted by: Mom at May 1, 2004 03:21 PMLOL defentially special! : ), and yes I meant Hung hes terrible. I'm sure he understands english just fine, I'm not sure if he was born here or abroad but his english is not great. The dentist who does the dentistry on ABC Extreme Makeovers was trying to get in touch with him to fix his teeth for free, but Hung's brother is is "manager" and he doesnt speak english or at least not well and he couldn't understand what the dentist was telling him or something like that
