Were it to be eg about abusing a child in this way, it'd be off the air pretty quick (and I'd put money on DT not using it in an ad, no matter how chirpy the tune was). I pointed out the inappropriateness of using such a song in their ads, and also said that it seemed to be ok to play it everywhere, no doubt because it was about abusing a woman. I included a translation of the lyrics that I found on the internet. It's not only on the radio, it's on tv too.Īnd the usual sorts of songs that contain lyrics so sick and offensive do tend to be in a different music category altogether - as I said in the OP, not that that makes it better, but it does mean it is not quite as in-your-face as pop music. I believe there's been at least a couple of threads about it on here, in fact.īut what has bothered me most I suppose is that it is being played everywhere and is even used in an ad for Deutsche Telekom. Well yes, there are lots of dreadful songs, with dreadful lyrics, around.
I keep hoping that it is somehow ironic or something other than utterly sick, twisted and unacceptable in every possible way. Don't waste your time.It is a nice, catchy tune, played quite a lot on all major radio stations here in Germany (don't know if it's a hit or even released the UK). What were these guys taking peyote? Why did his fairly well to do parents put their ""on his way to med school" kid in some kind of rehab that was like a state mental ward ? I could pick it apart more here but whats the point of kicking someone when their down. I know something of addiction and rehab myself and it really did an EXCEPTIONALLY poor job of portraying either experience with any degree of authenticity. The cartoon characters in rehab, the awful forced romantic relationship, cripes. This movie started off with some promise technically but as it moved along it actually continually surprised me with each new unbelievable turn of plot, phony character, or contrived emotion. I expect that probably accounts for about half the votes though, so at about 6.9 without them voting your probably looking at a movie that's actually rated about 5.0 or so. I also can't believe its rated as high as it is, even allowing for the cast and crew to have all voted it up. Can't believe it won any kind of audience choice award.
