My 17 year old daughter is the intended audience for this track. But she turns down the volume for the 20 seconds or so of the "sick beat" line. I asked why and she replied, "it's just too embarrassing."

Will it have all the plagiarized lyrics too? And maybe, unlike Dylan, cite his sources?

Maybe I'm amazed was "lighthearted"?

My favorite bit is: "Don't go cryin, to your mama, cause you're on your own … in the real world."

No actually. Craig Ferguson didn't come up with it. Spy Magazine came up with it more than 30 years ago. Bored now. Men and women sometimes resemble each other. Get over it.

It's perfectly acceptable to not like her singing or her music. Criticizing her work isn't "vitriol." It's a subjective judgment, the same as your judgments in favor of her music and art.

Double Fantasy was the beginning of what would have been John's adult-contemporary mush period. Songs like Wo/man are as sappy as anything Macca every wrote.

Paul McCartney is great, and he was the best thing about the Beatles.  He went on to make a large amount of music for people who like beautiful, challenging, occasionally goofy, glorious pop music.  That this website would retroactively give an epically amazing album like this an A, given how fond they are of unique…

I can't stand the man or his reviews. Gigantic blowhard. And some of the music he's dismissed over the years is mind-boggling. He shits on certain artists he doesn't like for no good reason. And besides, anyone who anoints himself as the "dean" of rock critics is, by definition, a self-absorbed pretentious twat. Not…

Yep. I saw the magazine's best of 2011 list and that ridiculous record was on it.

I just thought of a "he-man" as a strong, vain type. But maybe you're right and it has some broader meaning.
