Shortest Midget In The Game Shites All Over '06

Lady Sovereign tells Rolling Stone her pick for Worst Song Of 2006.

Anything by Fergie - 'London Bridge' in particular, because she's not from London and the song doesn't make sense. Also, that 'let me see your grill' song by Nelly was just too much. This year has been rubbish. Apart from me, it's just been shit.
Sov's just sore will.i.am can't spell "tasty."

Yes, Fergie is horrible, but at least she's not horrible to look at. Can't say the same about Lady Sov.

The lyrics to London Bridge by Fergie include the following line from the chorus:

"My London, London bridge, wanna go down like,"

Now, I've tried to decipher these words, and it's been very difficult.

How does a bridge "go down"? It would have to be a bascule (draw) bridge, right? LIfts up to let boats through, then goes back down again.

However, London Bridge is NOT a bascule bridge. It doesn't go up, and it certainly doesn't go down. You are probably thinking of Tower Bridge.

Fergie, YOU ARE A SILLY MOO WHO CAN'T DIFFERENTIATE BRIDGE TYPES, how you manage to breath and walk is beyond me, i shall phone you when you're ironing.....

Lady Sov makes annoying as hell music too; I lump her in with MIA and Cansei de Ser Sexy as "the most appealing dance music to loud fat rich girls in tight clothes", thus making it the worst music ever.

And I can't hate on Fergie since she came from my hometown. STRAIGHT UP FERGALICIOUS YO

"Yeah, but in her video she's all prancing around infront of TOWER bridge,"

'Cuz London Bridge just looks like, well, any old bridge. You're right -- people who confuse Tower Bridge with London Bridge are one of my Top 100 pet peeves.

Wow, you hate on MIA & CSS then support Fergie? Apparently the world has turned upside-down.

If you ask MIA, she knows her bridges, mate, she got it all sewn up.

CSS don't have no bridge knowledge, there are no bridges in Brazil (check wiki if you don't believe me, the brazillian word for lack of bridges is "gul le beul")

Sov is a novelty dwarf, not unlike napoleon.

London Bridge is a metaphore, look into it instead of critisizing something just because you don't understand. And yes, the song sucks.

Lady S. talks alot of shit for someone who isn't selling that many albums, perhaps she shouldn't talk shit about artists who are out selling her.

Either way they're both extremely overrated.

Lady Sov must be suffering from that same affliction that Foxy Brown had. Otherwise, she'd know how shitty she is, too. Either that or she's just jealous that she (Sov) would never be a part of a "London Bridge" in her life.

Sheila,

1. Do you mean "metaphor" rather than "metaphore"?

2. If you do, then you are wrong - it's a simile, not a metaphor.

So then Sheila, in your own words:

"look into it instead of critisizing something just because you don't understand"

People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

I'm going to phone you while you iron.
