Tuesday Tunes: “Brokenhearted” – Karmin

Karmin has been most recently known for their song “Crash Your Party“.  They were the also recently the featured live performers on SNL on Saturday, February 11th. This song has been on repeat on my playlist since I heard it premiere on Z100 100.3 FM. It is so upbeat and disgustingly catchy. Karmin is a pop music duo consisting of Amy Heidemann and Nick Noonan, who are engaged to one another. Amy described the music video, which was recently filmed, as the story of how the two met. Awww, cue the song birds. I am definitely interested in hearing more of what Karmin comes up with when their album drops in the next few months.

LYRICS: “Brokenhearted” – Karmin

This is more than a typical kinda thing
Felt the joints in my bones when you were touching me
Oh oh, didn’t wanna take it slow

In a daze, going crazy, I can barely think
You’re replaying in my brain, I find it hard to sleep
Oh oh, waiting for my phone to blow

Oh oh, yo
Now I’m here in a sticky situation
Got a bit of trouble, yep but now I’m pacin’
Five minutes, ten minutes, now it’s been an hour
I don’t wanna think too hard, but I’m sour
Oh oh, I can’t seem to let you go

[Hook]
See I’ve been waiting all day
For you to call me baby
So let’s get up, let’s get on it
Don’t you leave me brokenhearted tonight

Come on, that’s right
Honest baby I’ll do
Anything you want to
So can we finish what we started
Don’t you leave me brokenhearted tonight
Come on, that’s right, Cheerio

What’s the time, such a crime, not a single word
Sippin on a Patron, just to calm my nerves
Oh oh, poppin’ bottles by the phone
Oh yeah

Add me up, pat me down, turn me inside out
That’s enough, call me up, baby I’m in doubt
Oh oh, now I don’t even think you know, no no no

[Hook]

Anything you wanna do, I’ll be on it too
Everything you say, it’s like go with the view
Business on the front, party in the back
Maybe I was wrong, was the outfit really wack
This kinda thing doesn’t happen usually
I’m on the opposite side of it, truthfully
I know you want it, so come and get it
Cheerio

[Hook+coda]
Come on, that’s right
Do you.. do you?

When you gonna call
Don’t leave me brokenhearted
I’ve been waiting up
Let’s finish what we started
Oh oh, I can’t seem to let you go
Come on, that’s right, cheerio, uh

Tuesday Tunes: Photocomfort – “My Mistake”

This is for all you music lovers out there. Those of you who are sick and tired of the same old auto-tuned pop stars who could be put to shame by a cappella singing parakeets. My cousin Justine just recently launched her first album entitled Photocomfort. It is the perfect blend of classical instruments mixed with ethnic tones and whimsical lyrics. The best part? All the songs are actually written by Justine.  CONGRATULATIONS to Justine, who will have a song to be featured in the new MTV film  called “Apart” staring Josh Danziger and Olesya Rulin of High School Musical.

Love to Hate Celebrities

Love them or hate them, they are what makes the paparazzi money and gives you something to read on the can.

Rachael Ray.  Don’t even get me started on this one. From her obnoxiously Fran Drescher-like voice, a Fran Drescher who has smoked cigarettes from the first day out of the womb, to her unnecessary abbreviations like “sammies” for sandwiches.  These abbreviations have affectionately been dubbed “Ray-isms”.  I still eat the 30 minute meals my mother makes from the recipes she gets from her, but with a sour taste of hatred and disgust on the side. 

Kate & Jon Gosselin.  Gracing the continental U.S. with their ever-present photos on the cover of every tabloid in your supermarket or local Quik-E Mart, these two has-beens are a divorce lawyer’s dream.  But you have to admit, these two produced Aaden (a personal favorite) and the other seven little devils angels. Just hoping that the apples don’t fall from the dysfunctional tree. 

Lindsay Lohan.  Talk about a train wreck. Are you a lesbian or barsexual (just looking for that male attention because you kiss girls when you’re drunk)? Are you team Dina or team Daddy Lohan?  How many more trips to Betty Ford will you make before your 40th birthday? Whatever happened to that sweet little Haley Parker from Napa California?  I think Aubrey from I Know Who Killed Me ate her. 

Miley Cyrus.  Shoot me know when I hear some screaming pre-pubescent girls saying they want to be like Miley (stripper pole or no stripper pole).  But, I have to shamelessly admit, I have been caught singing Party in the U.S.A. to myself while walking across campus…and nodding my head (like yeah) and moving my hips (like yeah). 

Heidi Montag & Spencer Pratt.  These two media whores have been made “popular” over doing nothing.  They are “stars” of a crappy not-scripted reality show on MTV and couldn’t even make it through the jungle without hospitalization or finding a new religion.  The combination of both personalities of stupidity and arrogance make them a monster couple, perfect for the tabloids.

Kanye West.  This obnoxiously, overrated (c)rapper stepped over the line for me when he interrupted sweet little Taylor Swift.  His big mouth has gotten him into trouble once more. The pretentious ass called himself the closest thing Hip Hop has to God. No, not so much.

Jennifer Aniston. I was never a Friends person. But she seems to play the same character in every movie, none of which I like/own.  She has made headlines of late because of her failed relationships with noted stars like Vince Vaughn, John Mayer and let’s not forget Brad Pitt.  She has a very beautiful outside, just her personality seems blahhh. Que aburrida.

Paris Hilton. I’ll admit I am hooked on finding Paris a new BFF every other season.  But enough is enough with the foo foo outfits and super high pitched voice. I don’t need to see your crotch hanging out of any $500 designer dress and million dollar Mazarati. The catch phrase “that’s hot” is growing old and spider webs on it.  And I doubt anyone actually followed the Simple Life.  But, Hey! Your perfume smells nice!
