21·18 hours agoThat would make me chuckle; I would still add it to my playlist, hahaha
restating the song’s message
Yeah, hahaha
Thanks for sharing this song with us!
Same!
You find an upbeat song that is really catchy, then you find out it is a really dark song when you see translated lyrics.
I still add it to my playlist though!
This song is an emblematic brazilian song, and brought world wide success to its creator, Sérgio Mendes. The song was recorded in 1966 as the name of the band suggest it. It is a cover of a 1963 song of the same name by Jorge Ben Jor, who was for a time a guitarist in Sergio Mendes band when touring in the US. The beginning anchor comes from an older song, Nanã Imborô by José Prates in 1958.
Despite the reputation of the song, the lyrics are a little bit cryptic.[1]

Sérgio Mendes, the pianist who gifted the world with the most famous version of the Brazilian classic “Mas Que Nada,” died on Thursday. Born in 1941, Mendes was a 20-year-old musician when he first arrived in the U.S. to perform at a historic Carnegie Hall concert that brought many bossa nova legends to New York in 1962. Two years after the show, Mendes moved to Los Angeles and never left the U.S. He also never abandoned Brazilian music, becoming one of the most significant ambassadors of bossa nova and samba around the world.[2]
It seems that censorship, echo chambers, and tribalism are no bueno and that diverse ideas should be welcomed in discussions.

I am right (I am right)
I am correct (I am correct)
If you disagree with me I’ll get really upset
Playboy Manbaby’s “Don’t Let It Be” is the contradictory soundtrack to your contemporary life experience. Grimly sarcastic - yet youthfully nihilistic - this music crashes into reality with a semi-coherent deliberation that can only be generated by a group of frail but over-caffeinated and eternally-anxious young adults. Playboy Manbaby is the theme song to the sentiment “what the f** am I doing with my life?” With a kind of spazzy, post-pop-punk sheen, this album is indecisive in both message and genre but never lacking in absolute intensity.[2]

Hip hop community might show more love for ICP!

Insane Clown Posse, often abbreviated as ICP, is an American hip hop duo. Formed in Detroit in 1989, ICP’s best-known lineup consists of rappers Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope. Insane Clown Posse performs a style of hardcore hip hop known as horrorcore and is known for its elaborate live performances. The duo has earned two platinum and five gold albums. According to Nielsen SoundScan, the entire catalog of the group had sold 6.5 million units in the United States and Canada as of April 2007. The group has established a dedicated following called Juggalos numbering in the “tens of thousands”. Originally known as JJ Boyz and Inner City Posse, the group introduced supernatural and horror-themed lyrics as a means of distinguishing itself stylistically. The duo founded the independent record label Psychopathic Records with Alex Abbiss as manager, and produced and starred in the feature films Big Money Hustlas and Big Money Rustlas.
Below made me chuckle, hahaha:
During episode 56 of Palcast, Shaggy 2 Dope was asked if the use of Auto-Tune in this track was meant as a criticism of modern rappers or if ICP were just trying out a new style. He responded:
“None of your business. It’s not a Q and A. Actually, it kind of is. I don’t fuckin’ know, man. […] I don’t hate on [Auto-tune…] If it’s over-used, it sounds like shit. It’s gotta be used very strategically, I think.”
Shaggy’s refusal to give a clear answer likely implies that he had little to do with the song compared to Violent J, who raps every verse.[1]
TIL, thanks for sharing.
It seems to be just more celebrity drama, broken families, and relationships.
It reminds me of all the stuff that happened with Eminem and his family as well.
Don McLean Lyrics - “The Meanest Girl”
- You’re the meanest girl
- That I ever knew
- Did you know it
- Well you are
- You’re the meanest girl
- That I ever knew
- By far
- You’re an empty vessel, you’re a loaded gun
- You’re a Nazi general, you ain’t too much fun
- 'Cause you are really stupid
- And you’re ugly too
- Your face is full of worry lines
- From all the mean you do
- 'Cause you’re the meanest girl
- That I ever knew
- Did you know it
- Well you are
- Yeah you’re the meanest girl
- That I ever knew by far
-
You’re a total stranger
-
You’re wasting time on me
-
You should spend some money
-
And buy a personality
-
'Cause you’re always using people
-
And you think they won’t catch on
-
You should wear that COVID mask
-
When the germ is gone
- 'Cause you’re the meanest girl
- That I ever knew
- Did you know it
- Well you are
- You’re the meanest girl
- That I ever knew by far
- You’re a hateful fireman
- Your situation’s dire
- Your Lucifer’s companion
- And you’re a funeral pyre
- You’re a [?] midnight
- You’re the living end
- You have been deleted
- Now I am pressing send
- 'Cause you’re the meanest girl
- That I ever knew
- Did you know it
- Well you are
- You’re the meanest girl
- That I ever knew by far
- You have no compassion
- No more happy bells
- It’s your hatred that defines you
- Your self pity smells
- You had a shining moment
- You had all the bests
- Now you’re an embarrassment
- You’re really just a pest
- 'Cause you’re the meanest girl
- That I ever knew
- Did you know it
- Well you are
- You’re the meanest girl
- That I ever knew by far
- You’re the meanest one I knew
- By far
Oh, awesome!
I put them between brackets, so that might be it.

What do you mean by tags?
Are you talking about tags on Mastodon?
I do know of Mastadon and the experiment with tags, but I did not know that they are implementing them already.
Thanks for explaining!
Oh, what is that?

Nice band name, hahaha.
Why naming your band as Los Bitchos?
Serra: It was the first name that popped into my head. it’s not too serious but still gives off a distinct vibe of what the band is about.[1]
Made up of lead guitarist Serra, of Australian and Turkish heritage, Uruguayan synth and keytar player Agustina Ruiz, Swedish bassist Josefine Jonsson and British drummer Nic Crawshaw, the group are united by a commitment to having fun. Since the band arrived in 2019, they marked themselves as one of London’s brightest bands to watch. Since then, they’ve found a home in beloved indie label City Slang, ripped stages across the most coveted stages the globe over, and radiated the verve of their personalities and cultures through their take on rock’n’roll.
Named after a fictional club, Talkie Talkie is a late-night paradise brimming with freedom and possibility; a place where partygoers can escape reality in the dance or daydream along to the invigorating soundscapes. If their electrifying 2022 debut album Let the Festivities Begin! was the rowdy build up to the big night out, then Talkie Talkie is the technicolor explosion of the dancefloor.[2]
Nice instrumentals, great for Halloween theme!
Ah, you are right.
That would really change my perspective and feelings about the song!
It has happened to me a few times, but such is life!
