Extra - Top 4 Songs of the Week (August 17, 2010)
This is me attempting to get back on track with the good ole’ blog. Back to the regular stuff that I have promised. SO! This is another list of my Top 4 songs of the week (because Top 5 lists are for losers!). These are the ones that I can’t stop humming even when someone told me “if you don’t stop butchering those songs with your pathetic excuse for humming, then you’re going to find out why the Slap Chop guy went to prison!”. To which I replied “Are you calling me a hooker?”. To which it got really quiet… and awkward.
As always, have a listen to the mash-up and read my thoughts on each song below and then in the comments leave me your favorite songs of the week!
Number 4: Flo Rida ft. David Guetta - Club Can’t Handle Me
- Although I don’t understand the name “Flo Rida” or why it is even semi-cool to have your rap name resemble the state where old people go when they retire, the song is pretty good. It’s off the newest dance movie (which I have no intention of watching) Step Up 3D’s soundtrack . I saw the trailer on TV and the song got stuck. Next thing I knew it was on my computer and already raked up 30 plays.
Number 3: N.E.R.D ft. Kelly Furtado - Hot ‘N’ Fun
- N.E.R.D. had their first single “Everybody Nose (All the Girls Standing in the Line for the Bathroom)” and it did so… um…
well,great, horribly! Yes. It was perhaps the most stupid song I have ever heard. With lyrics like:
A hundred bills look - Ashoo! Ashoo! (x4)
Because
All the girls standing in the line for the Bathroom!
All the girls standing in the line for the Bathroom!
All the girls standing in the,
All the girls standing in the,
All the girls standing in the line for the Bathroom!
- Who knew it wasn’t going to do well. However, despite this horrible first attempt at song writing, they came back with this hot new song with Victoria native Nelly Furtado and it is MUCH, MUCH better!
Number 2: Mike Posner - Cooler Then Me
Number 1: Kelly Rowland ft. David Guetta - Commander
- Here is another person that had fame as a backup to Beyonce in Destiny’s Child, lost it, tried to come back solo (unsuccessfully) and is now teaming up with the new DJ prodigy, David Guetta, in hopes of reigniting her musical career. I personally think it’s working. This is Rowland’s second song with Guetta that has become popular, her first being “When Love Takes Over”. This song has amazing bass and really gets me wanting to break out in some awesome (and classic) white people moves. Just saying… if this song comes on, I’m not taking any responsibility for the ensuing “Sprinkler”, “Lawnmower” and most likely a failed attempt at “The Worm”. You’ve been warned.
That’s it for this week. I hope you enjoyed it. I realize David Guetta is on this list twice… he is just that good right now. Leave your thoughts on these songs in the comments below. Also if you have an idea for a Top 4 (like Top 4 90’s songs, Guilty Pleasures etc.) leave those also and I will try and do one of them for next weeks list.
Second post in a row HUZZAH!
