I have listened to “Rule Breaker,” the latest song to emerge from Ashlee Simpson’s forthcoming album Bittersweet World, about five times now, and much like when I was confronted with that other song by that other Ashley last year, I’m emerging from each listening session confused. The guitar lick–it sounds kind of sleaze-rockish! Would I enjoy it if someone who didn’t sound all drunken-sorority-karaoke was on vocals? The beat–it’s sort of reminding me of just-at-the-curdling-point Le Tigre! But am I being too hard on the song because the lyrics say things like “I just wanna color outside the lines / I’ve been reprimanded ’bout a thousand times”? This is definitely one of those tracks that needs an artist with less baggage to perform it, because the prospect of listening to it a bunch more just holds no appeal for me at all. Oh, overheated celebrity music world of today, you are so cruel to your listeners! [YouTube]

If she dances like the Deceptacon video I might stay interested for at least 30 seconds.
I rather liked “Autobiography.” Her career is certainly preferable to that of her sister’s. You go girl.
It’s like Le Tigra, except her voice is way more grating.
Call me old fashioned, but I really liked BIg Nose Ashlee Simpson a lot more.
This song isn’t great, but it’s almost as good as the last single, which was (and is likely to remain) the best thing she’s ever done.
I’ve never wanted to punch a song before.
“We like to break rules/we both have tattoos”
I think my problem with this song is what the fuck does she have to be angry about that she’s singing about “beef” and sounding all pissed? Cry me a river you rich twatwaffle.
Dude she would get so much cred if she grew a mustache, she could lipsync all day long
The funny part about the fact that she’s touting the fact that she has tattoos is the fact that she has really generic ones (a star, love on her wrist, a cartoon cherry). It’s not like she’s gotten work done by Paul Booth or anything. If that became the cool thing to do, though, she’d jump on the bandwagon.
