Lily Allen – Fuck You

yes, this is about Lily Allen’s new record. the princess of turning the unbearable lightness of being into musical arts returned with a new decree for shallowness at an new degree. whereas her début was a masterpiece in the crafts of turning the grey world outside into a place where everyone and everything is nice and happy this new presentation is about mastering the next level. the art and craft she is competing in now is getting your brain to work without spoiling the party. she is accomplishing this task by using carnival music to accompany but not distract from the lyrics. anticipated by the closing track of her first album, the little polka tune “Alfie”, this did not really come without a warning.
but i never really like “Alfie”. and so for a few seconds i was wondering “what am i listening to? and why?” when the words “so you say it's not okay to be gay well i think you're just evil you're just some racist who can't tie my laces your point of view is medieval” started to slowly sip into my grey matter. now i began to realize the true proportions of Lily’s greatness. by using this annoying music i am more than willing to blind out she made it just easy for me to ignore those funny sounds to focus on the lyrics and win a chuckle here and there.
