New Favorite Song

This is Emily's new favorite song..... RUDE BOY.

Inappropriate as usual. There are not very many appropriate songs on the radio these days.

A few weeks ago Emily and I were in the car and she said, "Oh my god, I love Rihana's new song!"

Not hearing it yet, I didn't know it was about to play on the radio.

I said, "Oh yeah, I wanna hear that CD. I heard she wrote it about Chris Brown and her new boyfriend. What's the album called?"

Suddenly the most inappropriate song that my daughter could ever sing along to came on the radio and she answered, "Rated R."

"Hmm..." was all I could think of as a response.

But I must admit... I do like that song.

We've Got A New Favorite Song

The kids and I love the song Tik Tok by Ke$ha. If only the words were a little bit nicer. I mean truthfully it's not as bad as some of the other songs out there, but you know these are my kids and they are 11, 9, and 5 and they are walking around singing...."before I leave I brush my teeth with a bottle of Jack." Emily asked Jessica what a bottle of Jack was. Jessica said she didn't know. I pretended I didn't hear them talking to each other.

I did volunteer that "Boys try to touch my junk" means they try to touch her butt. Because it could mean a whole lot more than her butt and I'd rather them think it's just her butt. I know.... I'm such a good mom. Not. I used to not let them download these songs from itunes, but they were listening to them anyway, and they knew them all from their friends at school, so what's really the point in making them try to figure out why I'm saying no. Although there are a few songs that I won't allow them to listen to... like Hotel, Motel... is that what it's called? Because that one is pretty graphic. And they decided that Don't Trust Me was too inappropriate to listen to. They actually told me that while I was listening to it. Hee hee. It's hard though, cuz some of these songs are good. It's just the words that are inappropriate. And truthfully I kinda like em.

In case there are some of you that have not heard this song, which I find kind of impossible cuz it's always on the radio, this is it...
