let's not forget that the Beatles did not START OUT AS THE BEATLES really. at the beginning they too were just another pop product who outraged the easily outraged. She is following in the very same footsteps.

The Beatles outgrew it, let's hop Miley does as well....

And you know that can't be bad
Yes, she loves you

She said you hurt her so
She almost lost her mind
But now she says she knows
You're not the hurting kind

She says she loves you

Aug 2013

You think you lost your love
Well, I saw her yesterday-yay
It's you she's thinking of
And she told me what to say-yay

It's not the lyrics alone, it was one of the songs that ushered in the Mersey Beat era and the British Invasion.

Heck, they even sang it in German:

Du glaubst sie liebt nur mich.
Gestern habe ich sie gesehen.
Sie denkt ja nur an dich.
Und du solltest zu ihr gehen.

Oh, ja sie liebt dich.
Schoner kann es garnicht sein.
Ja, sie liebt dich.
Und da solltest du dich freuen.

Du hast ihr weh getan
Sie wusste nicht warum
Du warst nicht schuld daran
Und drehtest dich nicht um
Oh, ja sie liebt dich
Schoner kann es garnicht sein
Ja, sie liebt dich
Und da solltest du dich freuen, ooo

Sie liebt dich, yeh, yeh, yeh
Sie liebt dich, yeh, yeh, yeh
Denn mit dir allein
Kann sie nur glucklich sein

Du musst jetzt zu ihr gehen
Entschuldige dich bei ihr
Ja das wird sie verstehen
Und dann verzeit sie dir
Oh, ja sie liebt dich
Schoner kann es garnicht sein
Ja, sie liebt dich
Und da solltest du dich freuen, ooo

Sie liebt dich, yeh, yeh, yeh
Sie liebt dich, yeh, yeh, yeh
Denn mit dir allein
Kann sie nur glucklich sein
Denn mit dir allein
Kann sie nur glucklich sein
Denn mit dir allein
Kann sie nur glucklich sein Sein

Yeh, yeh, yeh Yeh, yeh, yeh, yeah

The shit I give about Miley fucking Cyrus is small. I mean really small. Like, beyond sub-sub-sub-atomic small. Electrons are the size of bowling balls compared to the shit I give about Miley fucking Cyrus. It is so small, in fact, that the greatest tools known to science cannot prove it actually exists. The shit I give about Miley fucking Cyrus is so small, it exists only in theory, like a superstring.

That every young female singer who initially appeals to kids, has to act out a caricature of some slutty tart, and appeal to horny old guys such as as those who run record companies, before they are accepted as legitimate "adult" stars. After all the progress of women's rights, we still make them dance to the tunes of powerful men.

She's a brilliant promoter, you have to give her that. This is like the 20th thread on Miley Cyrus.

Whatever else you say about her, her performance worked to get her attention. Sex sells, as it turns out.

Mon Aug 26, 2013, 07:32 PM

Because of course until she twerked on TV nobody knew what they were doing. Men couldn't get aroused. All women found sex to be boring drudgery. And now, because of Miley, women love sex and men's penises all work just fine!!!! Hooray for Miley!!!

Like that kind of giving a fick about Miley or just the who gives a shit kind? Personally, I'm just bored with stupid teenagers who think they've found something new and that their hooha is some mysterious thing that's a magnet for all males on the planet when we all know different. Give her 5 years, a lot of drugs and alcohol and everybody'll be shaking their heads over her and the next new teen trying the same sex stunt on TV.

So, that would be a no. But I'm sad about the endless parade. And I wonder why the music industry keeps doing this.

She, as well as the equally awful Robin Thicke, prove that one doesn't achieve financial success through "merit."

It's all about connections, especially familial.
