I can't believe I'm admitting this...


Call me crazy, call me Shirley, call me call me call me but don't you just love it when - every so often - a song appears from nowhere, whacks you on the side of the head and all musical heaven pours forth??

I may have had too much Red Bull over the weekend, sorry.

You know what I mean. A song so perfect - so clear in its' vision, so perfectly executed - that you wanna scream and shout, phone up your friends and runanadtellyourmommaboutthat.

Last night, my housemates went to bed and I was flicking through the music channels. What pops up? Fergie and her brand new song 'London Bridge' (which, for once, Dan is right in that it's obviously an ode to her vagina)(Or booty, I could be mistaken. I can't remember the last time I saw a 'London Bridge').

I hate the Black Eyed Peas. Or, I think their songs are annoyingly catchy. But - blimey - Fergie's song is AMAZING! Sooo good. I think I may even end up buying the album if they're all like this. I was transfixed.

Okay, there are similarities to Gwen Stefani's 'Hollaback Girl' but she's released a great lead single. I wanna go and dance to it right now.

I still can't believe I've admitted that but there you go... Sue me.

Does anyone else like this slice of pop perfection??

YAY!!!


Everyone loves this song, I see! Let's dance.

This song and video are a disgusting mess! It's as bad as My Humps!

How dare you!!


Just kidding.

Maybe it was the moment - and maybe I'll come to regret this in a few weeks' time - but, last night, I was all over it. It was a surprise, believe me.


But thanks for your pity post.

Everybody keeps comaring this song 2 "Hollerback Girl", but it reminds me way more of "Tipsy". It's okay I guess. I prefer 2 hear her sing. She sounds like a bimbo when she raps.

Just a quick note, any song blasted loud in a club sounds good, but then when you realize what you were just listening too, you really wanna forget it

It amazing that the song is #1 in such a short period of time...

I only disliked MY humps because, that boney chick has neither humps nor bump that i have seen Gwen Stefani is way sexier.

what is a london bridge?

Fergie went from KIDS incorporated to "Im a lady but i dress like a HO" lol

I finally saw a snippet of this video last night and I love the song It reminds me of a cross between Gwen Stefani and MIA! Da hotness yo! Can't wait for this cd to drop now.

The song and the video suck massive amounts of dog shit. The girl tries so hard to be sexy when she isn't. It's very amusing. I would never compare the mess that is London Bridge to Hollaback Girl.

Apologize to Gwen and M.I.A. immediately! Oh, wait....
Nevermind.
The song reminds me of Teairra Marie's "No Daddy".

Can't believe it left the studio.

I kinda like the song I'm becoming a little more tolerant of today's mainstream songs I can't get that stupid Yung Joc song out of my head either.....the I know You see it one

the terrorists HAVE won.

CinisterCee said:

S.O.S please someone help me

Fergie's actual rap style sounds like Shawnna's in this song.

AnckSuNamun said:

haha ok that was hilarious

AnckSuNamun said:

Add that song by Robin Thicke and Pharrell to the list too....the "Wanna Love You Girl" song I like it.

Ah, the one and only Fergie:

kisscamille said:

It almost makes "My Humps" sound downright tolerable...There is just no real effort in that new song at all.

this just sounds like some phoned-in mess to me. I like the sassiness but I can't really get with this song. And I hated just about everything about the BlackEyed Peas.

Yay! Everyone still loves this song!

It's a winner!

So is this #1 in the US??? It hasn't been released in the UK yet.

I haven't seen it since that first airing so I've yet to know if this thread is a hideous mistake.

dancerella said:

Me too. Let's piss off this entire forum in a few weeks and give it a 5-star glowing review.

Share the love.

I prefered the Black Eyed Peas before they sold out (or I guess bought in) and got fergie. I prefered Fergie before she that she was black, actually I prefered Fergie when she was on Kids Incorporated. What kind of lyrics are such a lady but I'm dancing like a ho? come on

you dont like hoes?

karmatornado said:

I'm glad they sold out, because Will.I.am is probably one of the worst M.C's ever. and his production is sooo bland.

Actually it's the ecstacy that makes it sound so freakin' good.

she sucks my arse with a straw.

Ironically,
that is what kids today refer to as a "London Bridge".
