I was visiting a friend last week and "Wait" was on the radio so I had him turn it up... when the song ended he switched stations, and IT WAS ON THE NEXT STATION TOO!

I love when that happens.

It's always been "Boulevard Of Broken Dreams" when it happens to me. :(

jacki-o's bit on the "wait" remix is the best thing to come out of this

― jones (actual), Friday, 29 April 2005 14:42 (nineteen years ago) link

I always thought of the remix w/ Jacki-O as kind of a knock-off of the Spoiled Rotten response song that came first (same "see my clit"/"eat the pussy up" variation and everything).

"My Dick, My Sack" thread.

'pull my hair' is pretty awesome but i hope nobody can overhear me listening to this.

― Hari A$hur$t (Toaster), Friday, 29 April 2005 15:25 (nineteen years ago) link

huh i never heard that spoiled rotten thing but now i want to!

― jones (actual), Friday, 29 April 2005 15:37 (nineteen years ago) link

Can someone explain to me what "totes" is supposed to mean?
(I bring this up because julianne shepard talks about "wait" in her pfork column today).

― deej., Friday, 29 April 2005 15:39 (nineteen years ago) link

benetton tote bags. they're all the rage down south!

― M@tt He1geson (Matt Helgeson), Friday, 29 April 2005 15:43 (nineteen years ago) link

(haha ok i looked it up and no i don't)

x-p totes = "totally"?

― jones (actual), Friday, 29 April 2005 15:43 (nineteen years ago) link

short for "totally." At least five people must find it cute, but personally it annoys me.

― miccio (miccio), Friday, 29 April 2005 15:44 (nineteen years ago) link

free country, though. I say "natch" like crazy.

― miccio (miccio), Friday, 29 April 2005 15:49 (nineteen years ago) link

tremend brill!

"pull my hair" is so boring!

i love that at least once a day, in this little town of less than 10,000 people, you can hear that "wait" bassline dopplering down the street. every day for the last three weeks.

if anybody's got an a capella version of wait PLEASE YSI or gmail me @ vaguelythuggish

― Fetchboy (Felcher), Friday, 29 April 2005 17:55 (nineteen years ago) link

Anthony OTM. I pretty much roll my eyes and groan every time I see a different blogger start saying "totes".

N.O.R.E. also did a decent, if predictable remix of it as "Wait Til You See My Gun".

― Al (sitcom), Friday, 29 April 2005 18:10 (nineteen years ago) link

looking at the united states of atlanta tracklist, i noticed

6. Live Again feat. Maroon 5.

hmmm. i never did hear that kanye remix despite knowing of its existence, this is still a bit of a surprise tho.

HELLO!

― miccio (miccio), Monday, 2 May 2005 18:49 (nineteen years ago) link

guh?

― Forksclovetofu (Forksclovetofu), Monday, 2 May 2005 19:02 (nineteen years ago) link

I think pull my hair is great! this is like some weird perverse subgenre of lewd-unsettling-amusing? songs, not outright funny because it has to work on a real dancefloor-sexual level and you can't be laughing while its going on, but in the sense that it is very ridiculous and also very well-performed. I read somewhere that this is part of a trilogy!

I posted the tracklist on the shrimp the other day. I was all wtf too. Britney is on it!

― Lethal Dizzle (djdee2005), Monday, 2 May 2005 19:06 (nineteen years ago) link

maybe not outright funny until "make nut come out your nose"

― Brian Miller (Brian Miller), Monday, 2 May 2005 19:15 (nineteen years ago) link

"Pull Your Hair" is Barry White for sub-doms. porn, quality depends on your tastes.

― miccio (miccio), Monday, 2 May 2005 19:31 (nineteen years ago) link

ha yeah that's where i saw it actually, dizzle! the britney track is just ('just') a collipark remix of the ying yang track on 'in the zone' tho innit?

― jermaine (jnoble), Monday, 2 May 2005 20:07 (nineteen years ago) link

The vulgarity of "Whisper in Your Ear" is really offputting, but it has a killer groove.. don't really like "Pully My Hair" at all.

― The Brainwasher (Twilight), Monday, 2 May 2005 20:09 (nineteen years ago) link

I like "Pull My Hair" because the bass is so unsettling.

― Lethal Dizzle (djdee2005), Monday, 2 May 2005 20:12 (nineteen years ago) link

has anyone heard the video mix with the sound inserts on the radio? My local stations are still playing "hey girl, wait'll you see this" or whatever the lame clean version was.

― milozauckerman (miloaukerman), Tuesday, 3 May 2005 03:30 (nineteen years ago) link

from what I can tell, BET Uncut plays the (better) edit with the sound effects and silenced bad words, but in the daytime they play the lame "show you this" version.

― Al (sitcom), Tuesday, 3 May 2005 04:51 (nineteen years ago) link

Pfork takes a stand

― Lethal Dizzle (djdee2005), Wednesday, 11 May 2005 17:33 (nineteen years ago) link

Good for them (or him, as the case may be). Fuck that fucking song.

― Candicissima (candicissima), Wednesday, 11 May 2005 17:34 (nineteen years ago) link

I'm fine with people not enjoying the song (I don't think its a classic myself), but pretending the line is anything other than a crass, unpleasant metaphor totally misses the point.

― miccio (miccio), Wednesday, 11 May 2005 17:45 (nineteen years ago) link

omg he said he was gonna fuck her brains out! that's murder!

― miccio (miccio), Wednesday, 11 May 2005 17:47 (nineteen years ago) link

They gave the original version a good review.

― billstevejim (billstevejim), Wednesday, 11 May 2005 17:56 (nineteen years ago) link

4 stars

― billstevejim (billstevejim), Wednesday, 11 May 2005 17:57 (nineteen years ago) link

weird that they added exclamation points to whispered lines.

― miccio (miccio), Wednesday, 11 May 2005 17:58 (nineteen years ago) link

Seems to me they're taking a stand against inferior remakes, which critics should speak out against more often.

― billstevejim (billstevejim), Wednesday, 11 May 2005 17:59 (nineteen years ago) link

dude it's amazing. it reminds me of "Family Affair"

― Roger Fidelity (Roger Fidelity), Wednesday, 11 May 2005 18:02 (nineteen years ago) link

It's not like it's the same reviewer. If anything, the part in the parenthesis is direct response to the original review. Maybe he didn't get to review it the first time around and/or naively hoped Jacki-O might have improved on it. And it reads to me that he quoted that line in particular while talking about the content in general.

― Candicissima (candicissima), Wednesday, 11 May 2005 18:05 (nineteen years ago) link

unlistenable novelty song

― jason., Wednesday, 11 May 2005 18:14 (nineteen years ago) link

Oh God I just read that review. What bullshit. That dude totally pees sitting down. Get over yourself, Tipper.

― Roger Fidelity (Roger Fidelity), Wednesday, 11 May 2005 18:22 (nineteen years ago) link

hiphop returning to producer-centric roots shockah

hilarious to me that we needed something as obnoxious as this song to prick ears. thing is crass unpleasant metaphors (as opposed to something remotely clever, that doesn't strictly jock shock) are different than defending misogyny as art (some people here seem to be doing the latter).

suum cuique miccio, i won't call you scum (wink wink), but jamin doesn't miss the point either. the song doesn't exist in a vacuum, it's played on the radio, and as its controversy steps into the lime people can and should say something without the threat of your sort of pinko no-solution fingerpointing.

xpost- haha wow what an ass

>Oh God I just read that review. What bullshit. That dude totally pees sitting down. Get over yourself, Tipper.<

The greatest retort to a piece of musical criticism ever.

― Alan Conceicao (Alan Conceicao), Wednesday, 11 May 2005 18:53 (nineteen years ago) link

I find it hilarious that all the people offended by this song seem to think that "I'ma beat that pussy up" is a threat of violence.

I've been really tempted to post this Ying Yang song called "Your Daughter Like The Dick" to GN just to further rile up the puritans.

Pitchfork not connected to the street shockah

― Alan Conceicao (Alan Conceicao), Wednesday, 11 May 2005 18:55 (nineteen years ago) link

Of course there's always the question of whether these songs, while not criminal, are any good.

― miccio (miccio), Wednesday, 11 May 2005 18:56 (nineteen years ago) link

I mean what are you supposed to do to "Pull My Hair," jack off?

― miccio (miccio), Wednesday, 11 May 2005 18:57 (nineteen years ago) link

I should have a thing about the recent Ying Yang tracks coming out soon so I don't wanna quote it outright but there's a musical touchstone esp. for "Pull My Hair" that people don't bring up.

pensises in voiciferously defending institutionalized sexism shocker

― strng hlkngtn, Wednesday, 11 May 2005 19:01 (nineteen years ago) link

i really do wonder what everyone feels is so important about defending such rampantly mediocre ugliness
