Whore-y-dolls


Thanks to many images on CNN of all the slums in India, Americans have one impression of India: Cows on the street + poor, dusty, dirty people.

Whatever. It's not CNN's job to promote tourism and tolerance of 3rd world countries, but I digress.

The point is, after all the images of the slums being a bad thing, apparently it's now MAINSTREAM!

So the new movie Slumdog Millionaire has swept everyone off its feet. The soundtrack to the movie is AWESOME and it has been composed by one of my favorite composers: A.R Rahman. He's a very respectable composer in South Asia and has sold numerous records.

Tell me WHY the pussycat dolls have done a remix to one of his songs on his soundtrack?! Seriously?!

Here is the original soundtrack:

I can't find the PCD soundtrack on youtube because it's been taken down everywhere.

I just hope it's not a FAD to "slum" it. NOW that the movie has become super popular, all of a sudden, the slums are COOL! YEA!

A lot of artists have sung or written songs about the hardships of life or the world and how it is to come up in life. But, tell me honestly WHY the fucking Pussycat dolls want to remix a song composed by A.R Rahman that speaks of things larger than their breasts? It's one thing for maybe U2, or some other respectable artist who's actually wordly to adapt the song, but PUSSY CAT DOLLS?! SERIOUSLY?!

I like some of their catchy songs, but I do NOT consider their songs to have any lasting effect on me in any way. I think they should stick to singing about being hot, having groupies and call it a fucking day.
