On the Cutting Edge

Continuing my attempt not be a zillion years behind the times (and failing), I finally heard that Ke$ha song “Tik Tok” thanks to The Simpsons remaking their opening sequence to the first minute or so of the song.

(If you haven’t seen it, it’s well worth doing so. Surprisingly clever, and a search for Simpsons Tik Tok should do it. People are uploading faster than Fox can take them down.)

Anyway, curious, I listened to the rest of the song and three thoughts won’t leave my head now.

  1. Thanks to auto-tune, anyone it seems can be a hit singer. Seriously, could it be any more blatant?
  2. I could go the rest of my life, happily, without ever hear the word “crunk” again.
  3. Damn, that song sure is catchy. It’s been stuck in my head all day long.

Tune in during July 2015 when I finally hear a song by Justin Bieber.
