Ive decided to put myself into song rehab 'cos this is killing. I didnt intend to blog today but sh*t is getting way ridiculous now. I'm sure most of you know what I'm talking about... You hear song once and you just can't get the damn thing outta your head... Or like me, you extend the torture by frantically searching for the song without rest and when you eventually do, you got that damn thing on loop... LITERALLY!!!
Thats the place I'm in with The Dream's "Playing In Her Hair". First of all, I am NOT a DREAM fan. I just thought I'd just put that disclaimer out there before we go further into this f*ckery that is my addiction. I'm averse to his constant need for repetition in his lyrics e.g Umbrella..ella..ella..ella.. or the word 'aye.. aye...aye' (re:'Shorty Is Da Sh*t') I think he does this for the Palin-like brains listening to his music. I personally might not be a fan, but THE DREAM has done very well for himself not only recently as a recording artist, but as a song writer, penning hits like Mariah's 'Touch My Body', Rihanna's 'Umbrella' (ofcourse), J Holiday's 'Bed' to name a few, and of course the subject of todays post, off his personal album LOVE HATE release December 2007.
My brother tells me I have an unwavering nack for making people hate nice songs as I'll play them OVER, and OVER, and OVER, and OVER, and OVER again till everyone's had enough of it.
Right now as I write this I have the bleeding song playing. Ofcourse It's played out at least 5times during the composition of this piece, but what do i do? ...I just click right back to my iTUNES page and double click that baby once again;
"Before the Sex pop-off, she rub my back, rub my back, rub my back
She never gone for long she be right back/be right back/Shorty be right back
And She keeps a bag full of goodies/Her Loves baked up like Pillsbury Cookies
It aint about the Benz or the money/She's my bee/I'm her Honey
DAMN, thats my homie/ And she's got Me Playing In Her Hair... aye..aye"
MAKEEEE ITTTT STOOOOOPPP!!! I'M WILLING TO DO ANYTHING... ANYTHING... ANYTHING... But not till after I hear it for ONE LAST TIME :-? *Kemi's eye-balls roll back as she scratches her arm like a 'feen'*
The Dream - "Playing In Her Hair"
And for (not so random) added amusement...

I LOVE The Dream. True talk he does repeat stuff in his songs - the ellas, the ayes, and the ohh ohh baby ah ah ah ohhh in "falsetto". I think he does that for a reason though - when you are in a club and wasted and you hear one of his songs, the only thing that comes to mind are his catchy-isms. Genius. The guy even wrote a hit song for Jersey McCathy (got the white kid singing like a black dude).
Anyhow, I think my fave of his is Ditch that Nigg* - love it.
btw - love ur blog. its real.
