Or rearrange your cartoon stuff.
Or look for hornets and wasps.
Or go get some less disturbing bathroom equipment.
Or write "zombies are not real" a thousand times on a chalkboard.
Or, if everything else fails, GO CLUTCH YOUR DAMN PEARLS!!!!!

Ke$ha seems to be either 'you love her or hate her' type of artist. I have her CDs, and love to dance to her music.
I'm hoping she can break the 'bad timing slump' as I call it.
Ke$ha's first CD (Animal) was released in 2010, and put 4 singles into the Top 40. In 2011 her next CD (Cannibal) was released, and put 2 more songs on the Top 40 chart.
The last song posted above ("Die Young") was released in September 2012, and the lead off single of her 3rd CD (Warrior). At its release, Ke$ha told radio and TV personality Carson Daly that the concept for the song "was to live each and every single day like it's your last and to always remain having a youthful spirit no matter how old I get."
"Die Young" got to #3 on the Billboard Hot 100, looking to be her next #1. However, the week it was #3 was the same week that a shooter broke into Newtown school, shooting and killing 20 children. At that point, playing a song that was titled "Die Young" was insensitive, and the song was pulled from radio. When Ke$ha was asked about it, she agreed, saying she could understand why the song would be deemed inappropriate at that time.
However, the action seems to have stalled her career. The follow-up single ("C'mon") only got to #27 and the last single ("Crazy Kids") peaked at #40.

Well, maybe that would have happened anyway. Maybe those songs are in the place they deserve.

Perhaps......just seems like she was on a hot streak, that suddenly came to a halt. she was back at the top of the charts the beginning of this year, but the song wasn't hers. She was the "hook girl" (as they're known) on rapper Pitbull's song "Timber". He rapped the main parts of the song, while she sang the chorus.

Well, rap is definitely not my kind of music. Can't stand it, never could.
