Shannon Breaks Down Song Lyrics: Terrible Songs

So I figure I'll take the best parts of songs and break down some of their lyrics. Just for my interpretation. Of corse, I'm saying these songs are terrible, if you like them I'm sorry to offend but they are terrible. I don't like most songs in general though... and if you think about it you probably don't either.

Keep in mind... I'm pretty literal. And just because I don't like these songs doesn't mean I won't like them more that I listen to them and it doesn't mean I'm insulting the artist at all. These just aren't my cup of tea and they deserve a lyric breakdown. This is just for fun, so don't take it too seriously or get mad at me if I'm poking at your favorite song or artist. I'm probably going to make fun of some of my favorite songs too... no one is safe from me making fun of them. Not even Pete Wentz. Lol. David Bowie is probably pretty safe, Stevie Wonder is probably safe... but not everyone is safe.

Human by The Killers 
Lyrics in question: "Are We Human or Are We Dancer?"

Are those the only options? If we can dance are we not human? If we can't dance are we more human than those that can dance? Can aliens dance? I can't dance, so I guess I'm human. I don't think thats the way to answer that question though. I feel like most people are probably human, even if they can dance. Most aliens are probably not human even if they can't dance. I feel like this just puts a lot of pressure on people and especially aliens. If I were an alien, I wouldn't want to be called human just because I can't dance.

Honey I'm Good: By Andy Grammer
Lyrics in Question: "I am sure ya, sure ya will make somebody's night. But oh I assure ya assure ya that sure as hells not mine." 

... So then why are you leading me on. You're just gonna dance all up on me and then be like "ohhh sorry you're booty be banging, but I have someone I like a lot better than you so I'm gonna go with her now." No. Don't do me like that bro. This "me" is very hypothetical... but yeah. Don't think its okay to lead women on just cause women lead men on. As a woman that's pretty sure I tend to lead men on... I'm not going to stop doing it, but I would take great offense in it being done to me... so yeah. Stop doing it because #feminism. Right?

What Do You Mean by Justin Bieber 
Lyrics in Question: "What do you mean when you nod your head yes but you wanna say no."

Psh... yeah like I'm gonna tell you. You're just supposed to know and judging by the fact that you're Justin Bieber the answer is no, but you don't really want to say that to a rich, crazy dude... so you hope he has money and that you can somehow get something out of it and not get hunted in some sort of most dangerous game scenario. If you can tell that she wants to say no, why are you even asking what she means? Obviously you've figured it out. Also who just nods their head. If a girl's just nodding her head when you ask her a serious question you gotta get outta that. Can you imagine.

Biebz: Hey girl, do you love me.
Girl: *nods head*

That would just be terrible and not even Bieber deserves that.

Chinese food by Alison Gold 

Lyrics in question: "After Balling I go Clubbing, then I'm hugging then I'm hungry and I'm walking down the street and then I'm getting grumpy" 

Alright... this is just scratching the surface here... there will be some more. This is one of the gems of the infamous ARC Music Factory, responsible for great hits such as Friday by Rebecca Black.

So... what is balling? Why is it before clubbing? Who are you hugging after. Also aren't you like 12? What club's letting you in? Who you ballin with? Who you hugging? Are you that grumpy if you're still singing, you're 12 and somehow you have the social life to go balling and clubbing... and I'm old and don't know what those mean...so you have no right!

Anyway there's a bit more of this song I'd like to analyze...

More Lyrics in question: "I love Chinese Food. You know that I do." 
Yeah I know that you do. You just told me. Other than that, I don't know you! So yeah...

I think this is all I can handle to do right now... So thats all I'll do. Lol. Let me know what you think!

Byeee!

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...

Throwback Thursday: The Incredibles

This is one of the more underrated movies in the Pixar Universe... thatI think is actually getting more popular now than it was back when it was released... so that's good. I think it really stands the test of time... but it still isn't one of my favorites. This movie I think is pretty cool because it was the first time Pixar really used humans. When I was little I thought "Toys, Bugs, Monsters, Fish... the next movie will be about dogs!" And I was surprised it was this! I didn't know Pixar could do that! But I guess technically its about heroes and not humans... but then Pixar began to show more humans in their world and The Pixar Theory was started... and yeah. I just kind of want to state my opinion on the Pixar Theory here too cause why not: I don't believe that Pixar set out to create this elaborate world with all the movies connected... but I do still believe it exists in some way shape of form. It all adds up and checks out... so for me... somehow t...

Rereading My Favorite Thing I Wrote In College

Hey guys! I'd say "today's post is a little different" but they're all kind of different to begin with... so this might end up being the same- or at least something that can fit into this blog in a nice way. So I don't want to post the actual thing that I wrote... but in my college Creative Writing Class that I took at 21 we needed to write a fantastical realism short story. And I wrote something that I always liked. The lead character was a smart and sassy woman... the fantastical elements were exciting and unique... and the story as a whole had a cute ending and a good message... and I really liked the way that I took what happened in my real life and changed it into this amazing and fantastical thing. Re-reading it... it was still pretty good. I actually liked the ending a little bit better because it had a nice message about believing in yourself that I kind of just snuck in there without much thought... and there was a cute little love story. I liked ...
