The first song from Ashlee Simpson’s upcoming publicity revamp with superproducer (and now apparently pop-tart superwhore) Timbaland to show up in a grainy, YouTube’d version abounds with head-scratchers. Like why is the trashy queen of the knock-off-Avril/grunge-lite rock ballad now performing with rappers, even if it is the guy from Gym Class Heroes? Why would said rapper offer that “OJ is my favorite Simpson,” perhaps suggesting that an alleged murderer is less objectionable than the washed-up teenpop starlet he’s currently earning a paycheck from? Why is she is now singing like a..tuneless Siouxsie Sioux? (And then Fergie on the “monkey on my back” part?) What is a “sunshine concubine”? Why do I think the hand-drums-and-synth-bells-and-whistles beat–or what I can hear of it under the static-ridden bitrate–is kind of…okay?

Not much worse than some of Nelly Furtado’s recent hits, and better than Gimme More.
“Tuneless” is right. Yeouch! Who knew this would make me nostalgic for “La La”?
Sounds like Nelly Furtado to me. Except tuneless, as you said.
Her first CD was actually really good. The tunes were catchy. This is total garbage though.
is anyone else noticing some weird speech affectation?
Youtube police got to it. :(
