You say ooh ooh, I say ban the Veronicas - WORST lyrics ever?

    I've had to listen to this ham for the last two weeks, it's so atrocious I'm thinking of moving to another country where they've banned it (probably plenty of them).

    Am I missing something with this song, it's huge, massive and yet has lyrics like:
    "la la la la laaa la la la la lalalalalala"

    "I wanna wanna wanna get get get what I want
    Don't stop
    "

    "See you, breathe you,
    I want to be you
    Alalalala alalalala"


    "Give me give me give me all of you you
    Don't be scared"

    Yeah don't be scared.

    I mean, Jesus, this is the kind of music 6 year old girls make up in their bedrooms when Blue was alive.

    This has bothered me for too long at this stage, and I've been hiding it and bottling it up. I need some kind of validation.

    That's undoubted song writing talent there I didn't know it was possible to transcribe the female orgasm into lyrical form!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,499 ✭✭✭Sabre0001


    I don't think it's a massive song on account of the lyrics. Most big songs aren't...

    🤪



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 274 ✭✭johnmacward


    Their song is clearly a "fake" orgasm.

    Welcome to modern day pop/dance ****e.

    Well Irish radio is crap. If you dont happen to live in Dublin all you get is this horse shyte pop on EVERY station. Ipod docks FTW in the car.

    I more so mean it's popularity on Irish radio, it's played to a "why have my ears fallen off the side of my head" degree, which is against health regulations. Listen to 98, FM104, Spin, TodayFM (slight improvement), they bang it out with incredible regularity.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,778 ✭✭✭✭Kold


    Don't listen to the radio. I found this a handier solution than the killing urge put into me by The Killers a few years back. God damn I hate those sh*t twats.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 274 ✭✭johnmacward


    More to the point, the pop music industy, fair enough, releases pretty bad music and lyrically most are hopeless (in my opinion of course) but the songs sound competent, they're catchy at least, the rythym's are syncopated, logical. This song on the other hand...

    See you,
    Breathe you,
    I want to be you.

    It's a strange deviation, Cascada make better music than this.

    My problem is, it's always ON in work. Occasionally i throw on Today, Phantom, even RTE1 but eventually an earthquake rocks and it slides back to the centre of the dial toward 98.

    Anyone else have this problem, you generally despise popular music and yet know every lyric.

    They remind me of two Sarah Jessica Parkers with darker hair, and more troll like. I'm afraid I wouldn't.

    Aaah lad. Do you honestly believe the stations in dublin are better than Culchie FM? 98/104/spin whatever are just comercial talking clocks. Remember how sh!te atlantic 252 was with its songs repeated every hour? Well just put a dublin accent on it and thats the dirge you get up here.

    I dont really see the comparison tbh.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 458 ✭✭I_am_Jebus


    to be honest I am not sure I care about the lyrics. I'm more interested in the video. Those girls are fricking hot. they can come lalalalala, oh ah ah, or breathe me any time they want. ;)

    Im sure ye have pirate radio stations that play metal or rock? Whenever I drive up to Dublin this is the case anyway.

    Theres NOTHING in the line of variety down here, its the euro pop SHYTE on Spin, Beat, 2FM, TodayFM orrrrr the fiddly diddly on the local stations and Radio1.

    Lyric FM, what a load of bollocks.

    Rock station FTW here.

    I mostly listen to talk shows and flick between Radio 1 and Newstalk for that.

    Ok, slightly wider faces but you're nit-picking.

    I reckon Lyric is the best of a sh*t bunch myself.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,369 ✭✭✭✭ejmaztec


    Perhaps the OP would prefer Marney Harney and Joan Burton doing a duet? The Veruccas?

    Our pirate stations are mostly the WORST dance music ever, no rock ones. Phantom used to be pirate rock, then got a license and now plays soft indie throughout the day. It's not the worst but it's not the best either. It's great when they whack on a bit of Thin Lizzy. I feel alive again.

    Current Sugababes song is pretty bad:

    When I'm shopping with my girls they say Hey Sexy
    In a two piece at the beach they say Hey Sexy
    When they put me on their arms
    So they maximize their charm
    Cause I'm shining like a star
    Yeah, I'm so sexy

    Pop music has always been this bad.

    Lemme hear ya say yeah! (wow!)
    Lemme hear ya say yeah! (wow!)
    No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no ,no ,no, no there's no limit!
    no, no, no ,no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no there's no limit!
    No no limits, we'll reach for the sky!
    No valley to deep. No mountain too high.
    No no limits, we'll reach for the sky,
    we do what we want and we do it with pride.
