Seriously, whoever made popular music popular, go fuck yourself.

Regardless of anyone's opinion, she is going to be rich as fuck off of this one song. Most of the time having terrible lyrics, making a cheesy video, but having a really good beat to a song is a recipe for success. The fact that her voice isn't that great is irrelevant.
One hit wonder? Yes. 15 minutes of fame? Yes. Her actually continuing a career as a singer? NO.

You're kidding, right?

Because the opinion of a highly-educated, intelligent and thoughtful woman, gave me insight into the situation that my knee-jerk reaction hadn't considered, I'm "pussy whipped?"

Wow, congrats to the lucky girl that ends up with you.

And to all those saying "Miley Cyrus/Lindsay Lohan started out innocent" it's true - they did; but just because they're total fuck-ups doesn't mean this kid has to be too. There are other pop-stars out there who manage to keep it together despite the pressure to be completely objectified.

I still think that if I had a 12 year old daughter, I'd rather her listen to this than the other trash out there.





Let's be realistic. Most 13 year old girls aren't listening to the Beatles or the Eagles.

A quick scan of the top 40 music out there right now, and definitely on the most popular radio station in my area (which panders to tweens), will give a good indication that most of what is played on there is crap like Kesha, and whatever other flavour-of-the-month pop star is singing the joys of clubs, drinking, partying, and gettin' laid. Rawr!

I also didn't say that this is "good", nor did my girlfriend. I just said that it's probably a better alternative than something like Kesha, for example. I highly doubt that any parent would prefer their daughter to listen to songs about drugs, alcohol and what-not so that their children have a better grasp on the artistic prowess of the songwriters. Save that shit for when they're old enough to figure it out themselves.

I also have to add, if Taylor Swift's music is more detrimental to a young girl than the imagery and lyrics of Lady Gaga or Christina Aguilera, I would love to hear that argument articulated.
