I am so FRUSTRATED all the time with songs that are good musically, but now I'm inclined to hate them forever because their lyrical content.
If you could "fall into the sky"? Really? What acid trip are you on? I wouldn't mind if this was some lyric on the side, but no! It's the freakin' chorus. She sings this over and over. Just to remind you people that falling into the sky had NOTHING to do with the rest of the song. Completely out of place, repetitive and annoying.
"I wa-wa-want what you wa-wa-want. Give it to me like boom boom boom" ......who writes this crap!? Don't get me wrong, the song is awesome, but good god, Rihanna, hire a professional writer next time.
Listening to this one makes me want to punch the wall. I think Usher was really just reading off 4-chan because it's not possible to write lyric like these. "omg,omg omg omg, :O"
Does anyone out there share my sentiment?! Or am I just insane and sad?
You think Rihanna writes her stuff? It's a rare for a top billboard song/artist to write their own stuff.
E: I shouldn't say rare, but they have professional writers. Alot of them.
That's dance music, neoghaleon55. It doesn't have to have any lyrical value, you just have to be able to dance to it. It also needs to be realllllly catchy.
Although we both share the mutual disgust towards such horrifying lyrics. It's like they have no writing tallent at all. I can stand singers in bands who can't sing as long as they can put out some good lyrics. If they can sing thats even better. Now if they can sing but have horrible lyrics I hate listening to that, but I will dance to it.
Edit: I thought I would contribute to the thread too. Here ya go!
Red Hot Chili Peppers - around the world "Wake up the cake / It's a lake, she's kissing me / As they do when / When they do in Sicily" This has always been intolerable because I am generally impressed by their lyrics. This song has a great guitar, but this one lyric makes it impossible for me to really enjoy the song

Hey, your complaint gives me an excuse to post this fantastic video (from a fantastic musician), which beautifully highlights just how inane the lyrics really are.

"Can I get that margarita on the rock, rock, rocks? Can I get salt all around that rim, rim, rim, rim?"
AHHHHHHHHHHH!!
And she does that annoying as shit "hurr durr" thing with her voice where it gets a bit deeper and affected. God I hate her so much at least Justin Bieber's songs are catchy.

Man, ever since I played Robot Unicorn Attack, that song has risen to epic levels of respect. I literally get teary-eyed when listening to it. Due to joy. I am almost bursting into tears right now. Swear to god. Don't mock that song! :D
