U + Ur Hand, Dave
Posted by David Warner on Tue, Jul 10, 2007 at 11:16 PM
In Tuesday's NY Times: the dumbest piece of music writing ever. David Brooks, the booby who gave us Bobos In Paradise, is all adither about three of the summer's biggest pop songs -- Pink's "U + Ur Hand," Avril Lavigne's "Girlfriend," and (gasp!) Carrie Underwood's "Before He Cheats" -- because, essentially, the sisters are doing it for themselves. Righteous anthems by women who don't take shit and don't care who knows it? Nah. The characters in the songs, muses Mr. Brooks, are "obviously a product of the cold-eyed age of divorce and hookups." He pines for the days when "young people came a-calling as part of courtship" (yep, he really says that) and pities the singers for "posing" as "angry young women." Here's hoping all three of these "hard-boiled, foul-mouthed, fed-up" floozies get a gander at this fatuous column - then you'll see some angry, Dave.

I just wonder if any of the preteen girls singing Pink's song at the top of their lungs have any idea what the song's about. Same with all the lemmings who get up and do "YMCA" at ballparks without realizing why it's really "fun to stay" there.

I have read a number of posts of yours, but this is the one that I like the most. So expecting some more ideas from your side. Thanks ! Well said! This was a really quality post. In theory I'd like to write like this too - taking time and real effort to make a good article... but what can I say... I procrastinate alot and never seem to get something done.
Well said! This was a really quality post. In theory I'd like to write like this too - taking time and real effort to make a good article... but what can I say... I procrastinate alot and never seem to get something done. It's so funny that so many people are complaining about an event...not every event you attend is going to be exactly as you'd like it to be.
Comfortably, the article is in reality the best on this valuable topic. I harmonise with your conclusions and will thirstily look forward to your coming updates. Just saying thanks will not just be sufficient, for the wonderful clarity in your writing. I will instantly grab your rss feed to stay privy of any updates.

No one likes a Windows XP slow startup.When you startup your computer you want it to be ready to use immediately. I can not make it that fast, but I can help you fix Windows XP slow startup.First step to fix Windows XP slow startup is to find out what programs are loading when you startup Windows XP. To do this click start, run, then type in msconfig and hit enter. Look at the Boot.ini tab. In the box labeled Timeout change the time from the default 30 to 3. This changes how long it waits to before booting.
