Say What? : Justin Bieber

Say WHAT?: Justin Bieber

Have you ever heard a song that was totally ridiculous? And we're not talking ridiculous in a good way. Some lyric ideas should never see the light of day, but now we're gonna give it the spotlight it deserves. Sometimes we wonder why we do these things to ourselves....

This week: Justin Bieber.

In case you've had MTV turned off permanently (I know I have), you've seen this pint-sized kid making generic hip-hop/pop. This kid is Justin Bieber. Yeah, he got famous by being a self-taught musician who posted videos on YouTube, but his video for 'One Time' really took the cake. It was an opposite-pedobear thing, full blown and for the world to see. You get to see a pre-pubescent kid try to chat up a girl who's obviously what, 5 years older than him?

Even the worst of cougars wouldn't take that bet.

But here's one song of his that really provokes a 'WTF????' reaction, and it's called 'Love Me'. Hold on tight kiddos, we're about to enter a world of pain for which you are not familiar.

Sample lyrics:

"Tell me you love me love me say that you love me 
Fool me fool me, oh how you do me"
"And every time, I hold you near, I never wanna let you go. Ohh ohh"

Now do you know why MTV is dead? First, it samples The Cardigans. Yes, The Cardigans. And when sung by a 15-year-old who looks like he's 12, it's just so wrong. First off, 'My money is yours, give you a little more because I love ya'.  Let's disregard that Justin Bieber is a star and put this into context that a 15-year-old is singing this. WHAT MONEY?? Your average 15-year-old is pretty dang lucky if his parents let him have RM30 to top up his phone after sweet talking his crush for too long the day before. AKA, unless your parents are rich, the only money you'll be giving her is RM1 so she can buy sweets at the canteen.

Second. 'Oh how you do me'. If you don't think this is wrong in every way possible, I suggest you head to the closest sanitarium and plead insanity. Justin, who probably was 14 (13, maybe) when this was recorded, should not even be thinking about doing the nasty. The notion alone scares me. At 14, yeah, sure you notice girls, but mostly you're too busy playing football or running off to the cybercafe to be going heels to Jesus. Good grief.

Finally, 'I hold you near, I never wanna let you go'. Wow, I don't know how to say no to that. Any girl in her sane mind would probably run screaming from this proposition. It probably ranks up there with The Police's 'I'll Be Watching You' in terms of sheer creepiness.

But, the flipside is that if you're a young female of age 13-17, then go ahead. Justin Bieber is probably perfect boyfriend material for you. Heck, he probably could make good on the 'give you all the money you want' promise.
