ALSO want you to "wave them like you just don't care."

The other 11% could not be reached for comment.

1. I like throwing my hands in the air
and waving them like I DO care. I really DO care.

20. Me too.
Where are the rappers who speak for US, the party people in the house who both care AND wish to indulge in hand-throwing-in-the-air?

4. It's obvious that they don't live in a house with ceiling fans.
How inconsiderate.

21. I dunno....when I see 50 Cent on TV....
the first words that come to my mind are "Modern Dutch Colonial." Maybe that's just me, though.

8. 91% of all classic rockers who are "movin'"
are simultaneously "groovin'". These numbers have baffled the scientific community. The trend has been established but the antecedents remain a mystery.

13. Let's not forget those reggae singers......
86% of all reggae singers who decry "fussing" ALSO decry "fighting." There is a +/- .3% margin of error in this study.

plus a smidge of gnashing of teeth

26. But can, say, Horace Andy or Jacob Miller wail WITHOUT weeping?
Or vice versa?

Hmmm...there's the rub.

28. Allow me to add...
Edited on Wed Apr-06-05 12:13 PM by SouthoftheBorderPaul
the same 91% of classic rockers who claim it "felt so good" also "knew it would." This alarmingly high rate of clairvoyance among "rockers" has similarly baffled leading scientists.

30. You've done your homework, I see.
Did you know that 67% of all soul singers who wish to be "in your arms" ALSO miss their lover's "tender charms?" I didn't!


Thanks for the impetus for this thread, BTW.

35. On the other end of the spectrum....
a mere .5% of soul singers who "long to hear your voice" added "cause it sounds so noice."

36. You're making that up.
The latest figures from the Pew research center have indicated that that number may be on the rise due to the recent influx of Sri Lankan soul crooners.

So you're a damned liar.

9. I believe you should put your hands on your hip,
let your backbone slip. Do the Watusi like your aunt lucy, then shake it to the east, shake it to the west, shake it to the one who loves you best.

But my opinion doesn't count for anything around here no more.

Let me hear you say "heeeeey"

You bring your knees in tight.
But it's the pelvic thrust
That really drives you insane.

15. And 9 out of 10 country singers suck "harder than a bagless cyclonic."
The remaining country singer sucks "wildly."

from crying on his back. At least that's what it sounded like.

14. i dunno RZC
sometimes i get really intimated. exposing one's underarms like that? it really makes me feel vulnerable. i'd much rather wrap myself up in cell-o-phane and sit next to the speakers.

alone?

25. It'd be nice if more rappers used "I feel" statements.
"I Feel that you sould wave your hands in the air...."

"I Feel...that life ain't nothing but bitches and mone, as well."

29. I just think it's sad....
Edited on Wed Apr-06-05 12:44 PM by SouthoftheBorderPaul
that rappers feel life is merely about bitches and money. Clearly there are a lot of "hoochies and hoes" out there just waiting to brighten someone's life...

By the way, RCZ, I'm stealing the line about the spats and using it as a lyric.

33. Shooore. G'head.
And it's "RKZ."

As rapper "Bonecrusher" has stated on myriad occasions, "there are plany more fish in the sea. Why should I limit myself to 'hoes' when there are literally dozens of 'trick-ass bitches' with whom to entangle onself romantically?

Shit."

37. I suspect Rock and Roll has led to an uprising, as far as....
..statistics go, to a rash of "Shakin' Baby syndrome".

These uncaring fools have got to quit spouting the term:
"Shake it up Baby"
