Musicians have literally thought of everything over the
years. Between Vivaldi’s Gloria and
Miley Cyrus’ Wrecking Ball, we have
heard a wide variety of tunes and lyrics.
But, I think we have officially thought of everything. There
are so many musical compositions in the world that we have nothing else to sing
about. Nothing. Nada. Zero. Nope.
Yet, songs keep coming out. What is the topic of all of
these songs?
Animals.
I feel like we are creating a nice “Going to the Zoo” playlist.
Katy Perry’s new song Roar
is actually super catchy and fun. I love the message behind the song. It’s all
about strength and standing up for yourself. That is definitely a decent song
that is fun and uplifting.
“I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter, dancing through the
fire. Cause I am a champion and you’re gonna hear me roar.”
Nice job, Katy. You’re song gets 3 Emily high fives and 2
hair flips.
Another animal song has BLOWN UP the last few weeks. Now, I
just have one question to ask: What does the fox say?
The song, although absolutely insane, is so catchy! It’s
definitely the fun beat and hilarious lyrics. But, Ylvis kind of has a good point. What DOES the fox say?
Anyone? It’s a valid question. If you have yet to listen to this gem, the link
is posted below. The video makes it that much better. But, the fact that people
actually spent money on the creation of that concerns me.
“The secret of the fox, ancient mystery. Somewhere deep in
the woods, I know you’re hiding. What is your sound? Will we ever know? Will
always be a mystery? What do you say?”
Ylvis, nice try. Your song gets 4 questionable looks and 1 double take. Thanks for making me laugh, though.
Lastly, a song I was introduced to recently makes the list: Gorilla by Bruno Mars.
This song is extremely crude and inappropriate, but I’m not
going to lie to you. I love it. Maybe it’s Bruno Mars, maybe it’s the premise
of the song, maybe I haven’t heard any good music in a long time. But, I
seriously like this song. This is one of those songs that little kids will know
by heart, listen to ten years from now and wonder why the heck their parents
let them listen to it. We all know that feeling.
“You’ll never be the same, baby, once I’m done with
youuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.”
Sir Bruno Mars, your song gets 5 hair flips, my shirt and
ANYTHING else you want from me.
So, I hope you thriving musicians out there have better
ideas than questioning an animal noise or comparing sex to gorillas. Although
catchy and amusing songs, they are not anywhere near considered classics of
the day.
But, on those days you need to laugh, hear an uplifting
message or channel your sexual frustrations, here are some songs to get you
through.
Be happy, stay safe and smile always,
