Hello Goodbye

I want to watch Eve Graham sing Look What They've Done To My Song, Ma again...

This one just popped up on Spotify while I was running errands. I'd completely forgotten about it. When my ex and I were dating, he'd always play this on the jukebox just to annoy the journalism students, a rather stuffy, pretentious bunch (not me, of course  ;) )

The actual song starts at 00:40, after a bunch of "yo' mama" jokes.

because it was used in Heineken ads after it came out I added it to playlists, I get looks when it comes on for sure

I have some songs on my playlist that get me looks, too. One of them is Barbie Girl by Aqua.  :)

- the song, while annoying, is actually a beautiful message to teach

I just now read that it was written in response to the Cuban Missile Crisis. I hadn't known that.

Hmmm, I was getting ready to post this—a song that has always annoyed me—when I found out it has a Beatles connection.

I understand this song is popular—apparently it hit No. 8 on the U.S. charts—but it's always grated on me.

Before I post the clip, here's a quote from the artist: "For some reason the song was speaking to my unconscious and was saying, 'Believe in me. Hey, I'm down here, I'm good.' It bothered me enough that I re-demoed it with like a Ringo Starr reprise of 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.' On that album, Paul McCartney counts off at the last song, 'One, two, three, four... [drum beat].' That's Ringo."

That is annoying. And she commits a second offense by sampling one of my favorite doo-wop songs.

Joe Cocker's version of With a Little Help from My Friends. *shudder*

Blech! I listened just long enough to make sure it didn't start with church chimes and "Mother, you had me, but I never had you."

It is rather stylistically different to John's Mother.
