...is the worst, most shrill, irritating piece of breathless crap I've heard in fucking ages. She already had a strike against her for that White Stripes cover, but this is fucking awful. I was just out getting a cup of cofffee and it was playing in the deli I had the misfortune of standing in, and it made me want to douse the place in lighter fluid and torch it in protest of Ms.Stone's preachy, jerky rant.

Fuck bad music. Ruins my day.

That still doesn't tell me where it rates on the Alex in NYC scale of badness.

You're wrong, and you;'re a grotesquely ugly freak*. This song is fantastic, not quite up there with Natasha B's sublime "These Words" but dirrty all the same.

*Chris Morris quote - do not be alarmed.

Hahaha. I liked the "grotesquely ugly freak" bit.

In terms of how bad I think it is, let's say this.....it's even worse than Macy Gray's butchering of "Walk this Way" in the Walkman ad.

That Ms.Stone herself is a lithe, intensely attractive British schoolgirl does not alter the fact that her music makes me want to murder entire continents of people.

"Oh Alex in NYC, you hurt me in my heart."

She looks like Jacinda from the Real World London.

― M@tt He1geson (Matt Helgeson), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:06 (twenty-one years ago)

she looks like she needs a deep....ah nevermind.

― Velveteen Bingo (Chris V), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:06 (twenty-one years ago)

id like to see if her tonsils really are what theyve been made out to be.

― splooge (thesplooge), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:07 (twenty-one years ago)

I'd fuck her face.

― Jimmybommy JimmyK'KANG (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:18 (twenty-one years ago)

jesus.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:20 (twenty-one years ago)

I do not think Jesus would fuck her face.

― Dan Perry '08 (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:20 (twenty-one years ago)

Neither would I fuck Jesus' face.

― Jimmybommy JimmyK'KANG (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:20 (twenty-one years ago)

Also Joss Stone only lives up the road from me, and Jesus is from Bethlehem which is MILES.

― Jimmybommy JimmyK'KANG (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:21 (twenty-one years ago)

HE IS FUCKING TEH FACE!

― Dan Perry '08 (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:22 (twenty-one years ago)

(I have no opinion on the song because I haven't heard it.)

(Also, I just wanted to post "HE IS FUCKING TEH FACE!")

― Dan Perry '08 (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:23 (twenty-one years ago)

I'd fuck her cake, too.

― Jimmybommy JimmyK'KANG (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:24 (twenty-one years ago)

id face fuck her with a jesus mask.

― splooge (thesplooge), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:24 (twenty-one years ago)

Also the song is kind of OK, but I really hoped she'd do something much more modern and dancetastic.

― Jimmybommy JimmyK'KANG (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:25 (twenty-one years ago)

YES IN DE FACE!

― Velveteen Bingo (Chris V), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:25 (twenty-one years ago)

her cake?

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:30 (twenty-one years ago)

i'd like to send my bug around her pie.

― Velveteen Bingo (Chris V), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:30 (twenty-one years ago)

"cake" = "vagina"

No amount of disclaimer can extricate me from this thread now, I suppose. Sigh.

(xpost VB unleashes the fury!)

― Dan Perry '08 (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:31 (twenty-one years ago)

I'd like Sick Mouthy to pummell my vulva full of spunk.

― Joss Stone, Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:38 (twenty-one years ago)

But Joss, you're so young, and I have a girlfriend!?

― Jimmybommy JimmyK'KANG (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:39 (twenty-one years ago)

This thread has hit cervix bottom.

― Dan Perry '08 (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:45 (twenty-one years ago)

Hasn't it. That dirty little minx has ruined our day.

― Jimmybommy JimmyK'KANG (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 16:46 (twenty-one years ago)

She is the Mariah Carey of the new millenium.

― oops (Oops), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 20:28 (twenty-one years ago)

It's a bad song.

― jel -- (jel), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 20:31 (twenty-one years ago)

It would be worse if it was "You Had Me (At Hello)"

― oops (Oops), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 21:32 (twenty-one years ago)

DUH nuh DUH nuh DUH nuh...

― Thea (Thea), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 21:39 (twenty-one years ago)

that's the shark song btw, if anyone cares.

― Thea (Thea), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 21:46 (twenty-one years ago)

First of all, I would like to punch her in the neck for the way she pronounces the "ing" sound. Also for singing almost completely through her nose.

Secondly, she is not attractive. She has a face like a piggy and her body is sort of lumpy. She looks like she could use a shower and not in the good way.

Hate her.

― Talent Explosion (Talent Explosion), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 21:54 (twenty-one years ago)

God you're right about the "ing" thing though I could never before put my finger on it.

― Thea (Thea), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 22:08 (twenty-one years ago)

Secondly, she is not attractive. She has a face like a piggy and her body is sort of lumpy.

Burn her!!! How dare she appear on our television screens!?!?!?!?!

It's not like I'm a fan or anything, but Jeez, what a dick.

― noodle vague (noodle vague), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 22:11 (twenty-one years ago)

Hmmm...this thread honestly was less about how she looks than about how abjectly dreadful this song it (but i guess I did open up Pandora's Box by admitting that i find her attractive all the same). Lumpy piggy or not, its her bleating that i condemn, not her figure nor her visage.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 22:14 (twenty-one years ago)

I'll quite happily agree that her music is lumpen retro-soul for sales reps who find modern music threatening.

I just noticed that Talent Explosion is a cock-cultivator, is all.

― noodle vague (noodle vague), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 22:19 (twenty-one years ago)

"cock"? "noodle"??

To be honest, that girl looks like she wants a spanking and in my opinion hearing her music doesn't help.

Hot for some, not for some.

― Thea (Thea), Wednesday, 8 September 2004 22:28 (twenty-one years ago)

I was just responding to Alex In NYC's assertion that she's attractive. Maybe I was a bit too specific when I disagreed, Noodle?

But, really, I would be happy if she never appeared on my television again, though that's entirely because of her singing. Her voice makes me irrationally angry and would regardless of how she looks.

― Talent Explosion (Talent Explosion), Thursday, 9 September 2004 00:48 (twenty-one years ago)

Hahahaha Thea you are my hero.
