Two mostly rational adults discuss Keshadollarsign
I had not heard miss Sign (per Kristin: first name Kesha. Middle name Dollar. Last name Sign.) until yesterday, so Ben joined me in the ardous act of hitting "play" on her single "TiK ToK".
About music and about writing about music. And sometimes about writing about writing about music.

I put Animal the album on my iPod to prep for today (oh god, it burnses us) and I genuinely did not expect what I got when I finally reached the final song, aka the titular (see, the word "tit" is in there, did you notice that?) track. She did it. She fucking surprised me.
The reason I like this song is that it's not indicative of the rest of her music at all. It sounds like a different artist, and in her case, that's a relief. So, maybe there’s hope? I know, I know. That’s a hell of a grasp at an impossible straw. At least she gave me one mildly enjoyable, guilty pleasure song.
Yesterday on the twitters, we got into a bit of a discussion about Ke$ha, the new drug-addled pop starlet that your sister wants to be when everyone's out of the house and she gets into mommy's methamphetamine.
I first became aware of Ke$ha, henceforth referred to by her Biblical name of Keshadollarsign, via posters plastered all over Canal street in Manhattan promoting her album Fuck Me In The Ass With a Chainsaw Big Daddy Animal.
