Subject: Controversial Parody. Lol

Written By: Josh2 on 03/29/06 at 4:07 pm

LOL. A while ago I wrote a parody to I want Candy called I hate Lindsay.

Check it out, but most importantly, check out all the comments underneath, it's unreal.

Yeah, poke fun at pretty much any teenybopper bastion and they'll swarm.

I'd do that just for fun if it didn't kill my ratings...

Holy freaking crap, Phil.

I actually wrote a parody of I Love Rock & Roll called I Hate Britney Spears when I was about 11. I didn't know about AmIRight then though, and since I was 11 in 2001-02, there wouldn't have been any comments anyway. This is all I can remember of it...

When she first started out, she wasn't that bad
But now she is a slut, and it's really sad
Her "sing" is really moan (ing)
And I might have to groan
But the fans, yeah the fans
Their love for her is shown
But I-I-I'm still singing...

I hate Britney Spears!
She comes over and sings and drives me crazy!
I hate Britney Spears!
So come over and plug your ears with me!

Ah, to think how far I've come as a parodist in 5 years. ;)

And one thing I didn't understand about your version...Britney Spears isn't twee! She doesn't sound the slightest thing like, say, Belle and Sebastian.

Cat, why don't you sit down, rewrite it and submit it? One or two of my parodies go back to when I was 12 or 13!

Well Agri, I got a couple of reasons why I won't do that:

1. It would kill my ratings
2. I've gotten over hating Britney Spears and switched to simply not caring about her. :)

Yeah, but "I don't really care about Britney Spears" doesn't scan as well ;)

..and yes, you are writing *much* better stuff now :D

That song is etched into my mind philbo.  Whenever I hear either version on the radio your version starts in my head.
