Lindsay Lohan's "Rumors" - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Nighthawk76 · 09-26-2004, 03:14 PM

I heard the first single from Lindsay Lohan's upcoming album. The song is called "Rumors" and it is one of the worst songs that I have ever heard. She screams almost all the lyrics. Why someone gave this girl a recording contract is beyond me. And what's up with all these pop singers trying to come across as punk. Lindsay's just the latest in a long line of young artists who get themselves confused with punk rockers. I know that BuffySlayer has touched on this point before, and he is correct.

Because people want money. it's very ironic that every huge disney teenie (hilary duff, raven, lindsay) is getting a record deal, and none of them have any skill in singing. it's an absolute insult to the music industry, and like i said before i take music and singing careers seriously and i don't want to get signed if the company insists on digitally enhancing my voice or changing my image.

Oh my God... I heard this song. Horrible is not even the WORD.

It's more like atrocious.

I haven't heard it. I think she's a good actress. I hate when good actresses try to be singers and vise versa. It must stop.

AllIWantIsYourClutch · 09-26-2004, 07:45 PM

She's better than Hilary. I'll give her that much. She doesn't really bother me that much, but it's a stupid song.

Dean Winchester · 09-26-2004, 07:54 PM

the song isn't so bad, I like it better than Hilary, Ashlee or Avril. But why is her first single about "don't believe the rumors"? Believe it or not, she isn't enough on the radar that it matters. She is hardly in the position to write a "screw you hypocrites" song like Michael Jackson's Scream or Madonna's Human Nature.

For once John I actually think your wrong. Lindsay just screams the lyrics. This isn't music, it's someone yelling into a microphone for three or four minutes. And what on Earth does Lohan have to be so upset about?

Hollow · 09-26-2004, 11:26 PM

Oh my god. The song itself isn't too bad, but the lyrics are just APPALLING.

Quote:

Saturday, steppin' into the club
The music make me wanna tell the DJ 'turn it up'
I feel the energy all around
And my body can't stop movin' to the sound
But I can't tell that you're watchin' me
And you're probably gonna write what you didn't see
Well let me steal a little space to breathe
Can you please respect my privacy?

Why can't you just let me do the things I wanna do
I just wanna be me, I don't understand why
Would you wanna bring me down if I'm only having fun
I'm gonna live my life (not the way you want me to)

CHORUS:
I'm tired of rumors startin'
I'm sick of being followed
I'm tired of people lyin'
Sayin' what they want to about me
Why can't they back up off me?
Why can't they let me live?
I'm gonna do it my way
Take this for just what it is

So here we are back up in the club
People takin' pictures
Don't you think they get enough?
I just wanna get my crew (?) to the floor
And throw my hands up in the air to the beat like (What)
I would like to say respectfully
I would love it if you took the cameras off of me
Cause I just need a little room to breathe
Can you please respect my privacy?

Why can't you just let me do the things I wanna do
I just wanna be me, I don't understand why
Would you wanna bring me down if I'm only having fun
I'm gonna live my life (not the way you want me to)

REPEAT CHORUS

I just need to free my mind (my mind)
Just wanna dance and have a good time

I'm tired of rumors (rumors)
Followed (followed)
Why can't they (they) let me live
Take this for just what it is

REPEAT CHORUS X2

I'm embarrassed for whoever wrote that. It's the most poorly written song i've seen in my life and it doesn't even make sense. The idea of having a "singing career" isn't blabbing out rhyming sentences. didn't she only get signed a few months ago? and she's already releasing an album. the fact that she didn't put any effort into it shows.

I like it. Though I like the orginal 'Rumors' better, and I like My Prerogative a lot better too.

SBTB Geek · 09-27-2004, 02:23 AM

I'm a fan of her acting work, but this song IS horrible.

Lizzie McGuire · 09-28-2004, 02:33 PM

No one listens to me when I say that stuff. Just think I'm bitching or whatever. So it bothers me. I'm sorry.

I like Lindsay, I guess. She seems okay...but if one more talentless teeny gets a record deal, I'm commiting 1st a homicide, and then...a suicide.

That's because being punk is "in" now.
