What the Gloria Jean Hell is this?!
I just heard the most disturbing thing ever on my classic rock station. It was a song which went: "He hit me and it felt like a kiss / He hit me and I knew he loved me."
To this I say...WHAT THE #()*)%#(*)&%#)& IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE!?!
I realize that this song was recorded by Crystals in 1963, but still...this was ever acceptable? "He hit me and I was glad"? And people wonder why we have problems with domestic abuse today when lyrics like this were in popular songs only 40 years ago, in living memory of (my) parents?!
And you know what's even more disturbing? You can get it as A RING TONE. FOR YOUR CELLULAR PHONE. RIGHT NOW.
WHAT. THE. I REALLY WISHED I NEVER PROMISED TO NOT USE THE F-WORD OUTSIDE OF CUTS RIGHT NOW.
'Cause you know, I am not in the best of moods anyway because I just wasted my entire weekend taking a comprehensive exam so I can get my damned degree in August. All I want at this time is to have a hard cider or two, watch the end of Utena (which, as peace of mind goes, is probably not the best thing to be watching right now), and forget that my degree is on the line until I get that damn pass for this exam. And what do I get instead?
FREAKIN' DISTURBING MUSIC!
