The curse of Pandora

I have issues with Pandora. The stupid internet radio thingy. Don't get me wrong, I think the idea is ingenious. It's just that the execution is sadly lacking.

Every new station I start is cursed by the man who sings "Over the Rainbow." I think his name is Israel "IZ" Kaʻanoʻi Kamakawiwoʻole. I think the song is pretty cool. Anything accompanied by a Ukulele is freakishly awesome.



But when I have a station based off of P!nk's music I just don't see the correlation between the songs.

Anyway. That was not what I was going to talk about. While I am curesed by a Hawaiian man playing the ukulele on every Pandora station there is an even worse curse.

I have a really bad habit of tuning out any background noise when working on homework, this includes music. Well even though I am tuning it out occasionally (okay it's way more than occasionally, it's all the fraking time) I will start to sing along with the song playing, wither I like it our not.

I sitting minding my own business catching up on my blog reading when all of a sudden I notice I am singing along with a song. Then it hits me what song it was. I was singing "Whip My Hair" by Willow Smith.

What is wrong with Pandora that it would have even played that song? Why?




I whip my hair back and forth.
I whip my hair back and forth.
I whip my hair back and forth.
I whip my hair back and forth.
I whip my hair back and forth.
I whip my hair back and forth.
I whip my hair back and forth.

I really hope that song is going to be stuck in your head now too.

  1. Okay. I was going to try and narrow down what I agree with in this blog, but I agree with the whole thing. I cannot understand why Whip My Hair is even popular. *cringes*

  2. I know. It wouldn't bother me so much except that everyone had this huge hay-day because she is Will Smith's daughter. Only reason.
