My short story about foeeign music
Wife and 6-year-old get back from dance class:
6yo: I want to add that song we heard in the car to my playlist
Wife: oh what was that song again
Me: do you remember any words, we can search for it
6yo: no Wife: no
Me: what station was it on?
Wife: satellite, TikTok radio
Me: ohh ok, I guess we just need to wait or maybe if you find it on TikTok...
Days go by
Wife: It came on in the car but the title of the song was all weird characters
Me: was it like little stick figures or big slashes or just weird drawn characters?
Wife: just wierd
Me: Google: Russian songs on tik Tok
Moreart
Ohh!
I listen to it. It absolutely slaps
Google then mentions controversy
Then I translate the song's name.
LMAO. 'I will fuck"
Then I go to look for lyric translations
It's so fucking cringe and not in a naughty or dirty way, it's just lame cringe.
The beat of the music still slap though.
Reminds me of this funny commercial (nsfw language).
Zappa's Bobby Brown topped the charts in several European countries, with most people oblivious to the lyrics, people thought it was just some pop song :)
OMG you're right. Was guilty of that too :)
It's such a catchy tune.
Zappa remains great.
But also at least half of his songs are absolute smut, and we love him for it.
