Black Eyed Peas
 
You know, I didn't know what the deal was with that "my humps song" and then yesterday they ahd it on in some store I was in.

Forget being a bad song with alot of name dropping, does that song make anyone else want to vomit?

I don't know about you but when I hear about "lady lumps" I thikn breast cancer. It doesn't appeal to me at all, and at one point does she say something about a "hump"? That inspires images of hunchbacks.

::shudder::

It always reminds me of camels, far from my idea of attractive. I've actually never heard this entire song, a direct result of not attending any school dances, which I don't regret in the least.

jibber 01-18-2006 10:59 PM

plus, if a guy walked up to me in a bar and asked "what you gona do with all that junk, all that junk inside your trunk?" I wouldn't find it to be a big turn-on.

SeaShells 01-18-2006 11:07 PM

Imma get get get get you drunk......

I love the song. It's catchy, it's funky, it's silly. It's just a fun song. It's about tits n ass not camels or breast cancer :)

jibber 01-18-2006 11:12 PM

I hate this song. The lyrics are annoying, her voice is annoying, the melody is annoying. This song has no redeeming qualities whatsoever.

TheBig3 01-18-2006 11:19 PM

I realize its nt about camels with breast cancer, thats not what we said though, thats what people think.

No jibber if I came up to you in a bar i'd be like "nice toque, wanna go abck to my fishing hut? I have my moose parked outside."

Maybe thats why i don't go to bars...or hit on women.

hahahaha, actually in all honesty that one would probably work, shows you at least have a sense of humour.

jazzfromhell 01-18-2006 11:26 PM

The best way to go about it would be wait for someone to try and use stupid **** like Black Eyed Peas lyrics, then pick up said woman on the rebound. You can't lose after Z-material like that. The art of the rebound is one of the finer methods, these days. Or so I've heard, never having had to resort to such methods myself. :cool:

TheBig3 01-18-2006 11:30 PM

I think we call you The Vulture at bars here, same for anyone who goes to slot machines after someones been there all day.

hahaha, right.....never used that technique before huh?
That song is among the reasons why I absolutely almost all clubs. All the music they play is sh*t, the drinks are expensive and watered down, and the whole atmosphere feels like a junior high dance with sluttier girls and alcohol.

I wear around a shirt saying just that, so any prick who wants to generalize'll have to think up something new.

As for slot machines, I'm not old enough to use them (nor am I old enough to go in bars, to clarify), but even I know that you haven't got any better chances of winning no matter how many times someone's pulled the lever.

Yeah I know you didn't say it was. I was just trying to point out that it is a light-hearted song.

I guess it is the type of song that people either love or hate. It definitely won't be one of those songs that have people talking about it for years to come, but that doesn't stop me liking it now.

It sort of reminds me of that Womack and Womack song "Teardrops". It was also one of those love it or hate it songs. Oh dear I have almost contradicted myself by talking about it so long after it was first released. :o:

never heard of Womack and Womack.

SeaShells 01-19-2006 12:11 AM

You're lucky! They were one hit wonders late 80's. "Teardrops" was a truly dreadful song that even google has pushed to the outer most limits of its memory.

FfEeeEeeKk 01-19-2006 07:11 AM

It is really obnoxious, I'm not gonna lie.

Generalize about what? And actually wouldn't you stand a better chance if for the last three hours the machine didn't hit. I mean, thats jsut the odds, the more you do it the better chances you have of hitting that low percentile of "jackpot"?

adidasss 01-19-2006 09:48 AM

yeah, the song, goes right up there with window shopper by fitty as the most annoying song....well...probably ever.....

::shudder::

haha! i never thought of that before, thats quite fooneh. i always thought it was the most annoying song ive ever heard & the lady lumpy humpy parts were...kind of disgusting in my mind. not sure why people like that song. that girls voice is so annoying saying the same crap over & over.

No, I believe the odds are the same every time you pull. It's not the kind of thing where it goes off every 10,000th pull or anything. The casino fellas want you to think they're better, but that's just to get you to spend more.

TheBig3 01-19-2006 04:20 PM

No I don't think so either, but it has to go off at some point. There are just natural odds. On paper it could never go off, it could go off every time, but im saying you have a better percentage of a chance if you vulture a machine.

If I pull up right after a huge payout, odds are, it won't go off right after.

SittingBehindYou 01-19-2006 04:53 PM

JEFFERY ahaaha, ffffeeeekkk... come laugh and sing my humps with me, J.J. style! bamamamamamamamamam (trumpets) ah aha ahah ahaha Watcha gonna do wit all dat junk all dat junk inside dat trunk?

Sabgoat 01-19-2006 05:45 PM

that song annoy's me so much when i hear it i could actually kill whoever is playing it.

i never really liked there music, i mean its not the worst music i've ever heard or anything but it could be better then what it is. but this song is like they ran out of idea's and couldn't figure out what else to write, and just came up with random annoying words put them together made a stupid dance to go along with it and put instruments behind it and called it a song(which is why its doing so well on the music carts). its songs like that, that show us there just out to make some $$ there's not one thing about that song that shows any talent what so ever, when we know they do have it. but that song just makes me disrespect them.

SittingBehindYou 01-19-2006 05:47 PM

I only like it bc it reminds me of this funny kid who sang the whole thing for me... trumpets and all... I actually hate the song. I have no a double s so its like what hump?! lol I guess I have an ass I just hate the song.

Well, yeah, of course they are that it won't go off. But they're the same odds as any point in time for the machine. It's just as likely to go off right after a pay off as it is an hour later. The odds aren't better if you vulture it.


P.S. I think this is going in circles.

Scarlett O'Hara 01-20-2006 02:14 AM

That song is the most unintelligent, female degrading song EVER. It's asking 9 year-old girls to dress and act like sluts.

Which reminds me of last night in a club, a girl with red hair, tiny outfit but not a tiny body, with white boots and she was dancing by the DJ and on tables by her self like she's some kind of stripper. I could see people pointing and laughing at her, she was absolutely unaware how many people were calling her a slut. I almost felt sorry for her.

I think pop music is getting more and more brainless.

pop music starting getting bad right around "Ima slave 4 you" Britney Spears is a tramp. I mean we all do wild things like dance on tables and party like its 1999 but only when you're really hyper and wasted. Poor girl sounds like my ex bestfriend, so sweet but could she be more trashy?!

So the entire genre of pop music was ruined by one song? How is that possible? Country Music sucks because kenny chesney made a **** song. Is that fair to say? Your views on music are wack. I for one, think the pop genre has produced some brilliant artists(The Postal Service)

SittingBehindYou 01-20-2006 05:46 PM

Well, Postal Service is my fav band but I've always considered them chill rock.

A new member recently posted about the Black Eyed Peas in a new thread (now closed), and coincidentally I was wanting to post about them, too...but my opinion is the opposite of that member's.

I don't care at all for the Black Eyed Peas songs I've heard. Partly I dislike the sound of many of their songs. I'm not a fan of dance songs and theirs sound very contrived to me.

Mostly, I dislike their music because I don't like the lyrics. The lyrics seem extremely simplistic to me. "I love you boo, I love you, too" or "Cause girl I want, I I I want you right now."

My current least favorite Black Eyed Peas lyrics: "I will fly, fly the skies for you and I. I will try until I die for you and I, for you and I, for you and I," from their song, "Meet Me Halfway." I never like it when people write "for you and I" (instead of the grammatically correct "for you and me") and use it in a rhyme scheme. Also, the song seems mushy, cliche, and exaggerated.

And then, as others mentioned here earlier, there is "My Humps" song...

Did you mean Hip Hop for middle aged white people?

DeathBreath 04-24-2010 04:33 PM

I like Where Is The Love? But after that their music started to dissolve into pure sh*t.

Anyone else think the new Black Eyed Peas tune is complete carnage...shocking

TheBig3 11-22-2010 12:06 PM

I haven't heard it, but I'd guess its not my cup of tea. I also like how Flo Rida got right on that cash cow.

the music video just came out.. it's actually the worst song they've ever made, worse than Ive got a feeling which I completely hated. It combines all the worst aspects of pop music today, lame drinking and club references, repetitive boring beat, and stupid incorporations of old songs

take a listen


The Bullet 11-26-2010 02:33 PM

The new song is club music, but it's not much more than that... It's not bad for what it is, though, but it's still what it is. It's basically what you would expect from BEP.

The fact that I havn't heard it before, and that it only hit #12 in America (which would be something if they weren't the Black Eyed Peas) signals that they're loosing popularity here. GOOD. I don't wanna keep hearing them over and over...

DoctorSoft 11-27-2010 12:15 AM

Holy **** I heard their new song today on the radio and almost cut my arm off with a wooden spoon.
