Noty necessarily. TLC's done some cheating songs. Monica has Don't Gotta Go Home with DMX, where she plays his mistress. There are plenty of cheating songs from the woman's point of view. You just gotta dig.

Anyway! To veer the topic back onto Gwen, I... don't care much for No Doubt but I still can't wait to hear what they come up with next year. Sucks that apparently, she's done with the solo stuff, but if The Sweet Escape is any indication, she really should quit before she truly screws up (and this album comes close on many occasions, something LAMB managed to avoid. Except for the catchy but EXTREMELY EMBARRASSING Harajuku Girls).

I heard WIND IT UP on the radio today, for the first time, and I cannot believe how generic and boring it is. I actually liked the Yodeling for some scary reason, but the song as a whole is very boring. It's a knockoff of Hollaback Girl with some What you waiting for smashed in, and it stinks. Sorry, not trying to bash cuz i love Gwen, but this single sucks.

Gwen's SNL performance was pretty good. The dance is neat, I think.

Wonder why she just performed once, though. =/

Ahh, really? Reminds me of when No Doubt did that with Rock Steady (and when Michelle Branch did it with The Spirit Room). Good thing, too, the normal cover sucks.

Course, I... won't be buying it for awhile anyway, so...

Yay! I got the sweet escape and it's the special edition.

It comes with:

"Wind It Up" (Harajuku Lovers live version) - 3:26 (iTunes pre-order version, Europe / UK / Australia Special Edition version, Japan)

"Orange County Girl" (Harajuku Lovers live - video) (Europe / UK / Australia Special Edition version, Japan)


I also think the alterate cover is better so i'm using it. For the moment.

Here are lame scans since my digital camera is broken.

She looks a little drag in the second cover, although that's a pretty angle and pose.

I agree, she does look like ew, sista. Ew. I absolutely detest the hairdo especially if looked at from the front. Sideways it's not as ew though.

Jesus Christ. That's hideous... reminds me of her pictures in the Rock Steady booklet.

It's even worse than when Nadia Turner wore a fro-hawk for American Idol 4:

Wind it up~

Yodel - lay - e - yodel - lay - e - yodel - o~

Anyways, I think that the song is annoying, but it's eerily.. addictive D:

I've heard tales of people who actually love The Sweet Escape - the song, that is - and think Akon sounds cool or is barely noticeable on there.

If only. I'm all for "different strokes for different folks," but that's ridiculous.

I love that song, and I also like Nadia Turner. But Akon sucks and so does Nadia's hairstyle in that picture.

It's got a bit of Queens 'ANother One Bites The Dust'. It's not sampled as such and I don't think it's credited in the album booklet.

Is the picture where the CD goes different on that version to the UK. Mines the UK edition with the bonuses but it's in a super jewel box and doesn't have the edge. Awwww your box looks cooler.
