I will gladly admit that I live in a nice little bubble. I refuse to think the worst of people so when I am bombarded with statistics and other negative comments (such as the news) I tend to sing Disney songs in my head. This may not be the best approach to life, but it has kept me pretty happy. In the process of shadowing myself from the negative I apparently missed a LOT.
I was listening to some of my favorite songs today on grooveshark and as I was jamming out while writing a paper I realized that one of my favorite songs cursed like a million times. WHERE HAVE I BEEN??? Literally it is so clearly in these songs that I seriously wonder if I have a brain tumor. Apparently in my happy bubble I have completely changed the lyrics to a bunch of songs. I will not go into detail, but I recently was told by my slightly disturbed husband that one of my favorite songs is not about picking fruit like I thought, but a very intense acid trip. I actually was super into Usher and Nelly in high school and it turns out life half of their songs are about sex. Do I live under a rock or has a lifetime of Disney movies just convinced me that the world is a peachy place?

ReplyDeleteLudicrous was one of my favorites including the two you mentioned. Are you kidding? Terrible.
Ha. I don't think my husband loved it when he found out I listened to that for most of my life.
I've had this problem as well. Being a musician, I tend to listen to the beat of the music more than the lyrics and as I've tried to listen to the lyrics more I've realized that a lot of the songs I listen to are not good songs at all. It's crazy how that can happen!
ReplyDeleteHa ha, you are just more sensitized to profanity after doing our profanity in books study!
