As for the absurdity of the video, I had always assumed that she was parodying the hedonistic tendencies of today's youth. OK, you think it’s all an image — well that’s so not true. I would hope to come off as a walking celebration of f**k off irreverence and youth and fun. — Kesha http://quotekiss.com/kesha-quotes/ You can see that in the video, at 2:29, when Ke$ha falls, she falls into the loving embrace of dancing teenagers. She does not die. In the aftermath we see an explosion of cosmic proportions. Now many including Kant, believed that this enlightenment came from death, but Ke$ha is not known for believing in knowledge carrying over death. In fact Ke$ha is known for her unique of spritual reincarnation epistemology. I’m pretty sure that I was JFK in my past life -Ke$ha on how she is a born leader to today's youth http://keshaweb.com/2010/04/keha-interview-magazine-scans.html Ke$ha is saying that she has reached enlightenment that she can define her own purpose in life, and that that purpose can be as silly as living as a drunken dancing teenage youth. Lose your mind. Lose it now. Lose your clothes In the crowd. Were delirious. Tear it down til the sun comes back around. -Kesha And Please Mr. Show, use some sources next time. You should know by now that we do not tolerate such such unconvincing displays of evidence. edit: I am sorry Mr Show, upon a second reading of your essay, I've realized what you were saying... A+... | ||

For the record, I didn't like "the Stranger." I thought "the Plague" did everything "the Stranger" did, but with more subtlety and better. But no, go on. I am really curious to know what else you know about me so well. Do I wear all black, and hang out at Starbucks with a beret on all the time? | ||

That's all I asked of it, and I'm sure that's all the author intended. I don't know what you're talking about. I came here to have a serious discussion about the existential themes in Ke$ha. O_o This is the philosophy section of TL, right? | ||

Further ironic is that I happened to have Nietzsche opened up in another tab. | ||

What surprises me is that people are trying to counter-argue with the OP to convince him that the Ke$ha song is actually meaningless pop music. Like, duh. I thought a web community made up of geniuses would've "got it". | ||

Seriously though, why does everyone assume that because I mention Nietzsche I am in high school? I'm not, but even if I was, that is some age-ism right there, and I don't like it. Age should be irrelevant to any sort of debate or analysis. And art is subjective! | ||

Awesome OP. the pictures were the masterstroke, lol. One criticism: "Morallessness" isn't a word... I think you're looking for "amorality." | ||
