Can Anyone Explain To Me What’s Happening In The New MCR Video?

My Chemical Romance have just revealed their ‘Na Na Na – Lyric Video’ and I have now watched it three times and am still just baffled.

Is this an actual serious song? Have MCR moved away from the whole ‘woe is me’ emo music that made them so famous and started singing jokey songs for YouTube? I mean, really?

Well, yes, I have been told, this is in fact a track from their forthcoming album, ‘Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Kill Joys‘.

Hmm, I don’t think I’m quite sold yet, first Gerard dies his hair bright red and looks like some weird Hayley Williams copycat, and now this…

Rihanna WTF Are You Going On About In Your New Rude Boy Single?

Rihanna did alright with that Umberella song a couple of years ago didn’t she? And thanks to shacking up with off-the-rails boyfriend Chris Brown and becoming celeb best mates with Jay-Z and Beyonce in the last few years she’s done alright for herself song-wise. But Rude Boy? WHAT is going on??!!

I’ve never really been a Rihanna fan, I don’t know what, she’s just not my cup of tea, I don’t feel any warmth from her, so I just tend to skip over her when it comes to listening to my Now That’s What I call Music CD’s… but she DID catch my attnetion with this, quite frankly, rubbish song that’s just been on Radio One.

Now, I know everyone is trying to be different for the sake of it at the moment, but Rihanna, I thought you’re mantra was making accessible pop music – NOT pretending to be a ghetto princess and talking like R From The Block and that naked single cover… leave that to Lady Sovereign yeah?

I mean; I’ve just found a selection of these literary marvels on Google, and now I start to wonder if Rihanna’s Umberella-ella-ella’s repetitive, short and unimaginative lyrics would be the key to another successful single. The answer is, No.

Come here rude boy, boy, Can you get it up? Come here rude boy, boy, Is you big enough? Take it, take it, Baby, baby, Take it, take it. Love me, love me…. Number one, it should be ARE you big enough, not that you’d want your kids to be singing that on the way home from school.

Do you like it boy, I wa-wa-want, What you wa-wa-want? Give it to me baby, Like boom, boom, boom, What I wa-wa-want, Is what you wa-wa-want, Na, na-aaaah. Like Boom boom boom?… Well done Chris Brown.

Tonight, I’mma give it to you harder, Tonight, I’mma turn your body out, Relax, Let me do it how I wanna, If you got it, I need it, And I’mma put it down… are we having song porn now?

So giddy up, Time to giddy up, You say you’re a rude boy, Show me what you got now… could you clarify what a rude boy is please Rihanna, you seem to have missed that out amongst all out claptrap lyrics.

Whatever happened to making songs that actually don’t make you sound like a wannabe gangsta chav slapper these days? Bring back The Beatles I say!

Do Aqua Disrespect Jacko On New Track?

Quite whether Aqua can re-crack the charts is anyone’s guess, if it was up to me, they’d be at number one in a shot though… I can’t get enough of their bubblegum pop!

However, after listening to their new single, Back To The 80’s – which basically features a list of their observations of life in the 1980’s – I have started to wonder if the lyric; “back when Eminem was just a snack and Michael Jackson’s skin was black” is a little too soon after the stars death?

Whilst the debate over the changing colour of his skin goes on, the problem is that this was obviously something which plagued Michael’s life, and should this lyric had been written when he was alive it might not be quite so offensive as now that he has died.

I know Aqua are all about making funny songs that make us laugh, and the M&M’s (or Eminem) lyric is superb, but it think making the follow up lyric rhyme at the expense of a dead music legend could be seen as a little too much?

I am interviewing the band at 11am so I’ll come back to you when I’ve heard what they’ve got to say… I’m really hoping it puts my mind at rest because Aqua really are one of my guilty pleasures (considering my favourite band are ADTR and Nightwish!)

I don’t know what to think on this one guys, because I know Eminem takes the p*ss out of his fellow stars on a day to day basis, and Aqua never meant this lyric to be seen as offensive, but what do YOU think, is it disrespectful, or is it just a light-hearted song lyric?

UPDATE: Okay kids, just spoken to the band, and they have informed me that they changed the lyric to “back when Eminem was just a snack and Arnie said I’ll be back” – All is forgiven!
