Re: Songs with lyrics you hate but tunes you like (or vice versa)

[(Anonymous)]

In my angry teenager days, I listened to Anti-Flag. But it got to the point where I couldn't ignore the fact that while I loved their lyrics and agree with their messages, their singer is absolute shit. And apparently on purpose, because he's had moments where he doesn't do that gravely "angry garage band" voice and I just...I had to stop.

On the flip side, I'd love to still be able to listen to Linkin Park without cringing at my past self, because I love the sound, but...dudes, lighten up a bit, will you? (Again: perfect music for an angry teenager; not so much for a comparatively content adult.)

And then there's "Everything You Want," which would be an absolutely lovely song, if it weren't for the lyrical "twist" near the end that turns the whole thing into a Nice Guy's "WHY WON'T YOU LOVE MEEEEE" song =_____=

And Ke$ha, I love the hell out of your music, but "Grow a Pear" was really not called for. That could've been a funny wordplay song, but you went literal with it and got gross. Stop that.

Personally, I didn't get that vibe from the song at all. I thought it was more of a forbidden-love Brokeback Mountain-esque thing, where two people are clearly in love, but for social/safety reasons, the person goes with the "2nd best" option, and both sides are feeling empty and guilty because of it.

I like that interpretation. For me, due to the way the song is written, the earlier verses somehow give the impression that the titular "You" is an emotionally damaged person with abandonment issues who wants the other person and tries to make it work but simply can't manage to fully connect. The last verse is the other party's lament after the breakdown of the relationship.
