Because it's cliche and not the least bit clever. As my friend put it, "It sounds like she was trying to think up something that would sound cool in America".
Whatever. Honestly, what isn't "cliche" to people nowadays? I'm pretty sure a lot of people are picking at the title just because they have nothing else to really pick at. I'm sure she has her own reasoning for choosing a title like this and deciding on it so early on, so I think we should at least wait until she says why it is titled the way it is before making assumptions about why she chose it and so on.

I wasn't so hot on the title at first, but rather than hate it, I chose to be indifferent about it. I think I'm going to love it now though. If anything, I think the only thing people will have a HUGE problem with in terms of this album for the most part is the title, which is a REALLY dumb thing to have a problem with imo.

(I sort of wish that people overseas took the title and thought of it as "cool" and "rockish" like the Japaneseas opposed to the weird reactions it's been getting, but we're not Japanese fans and I guess for the most part, people in America just really hate the titles that "seem tacky/whatever" to them a la (miss)understood and (don't) Leave me alone...)
