Ke$ha Was Forced To Sing The Lyrics To "Die Young"

Because of the tragedy in Newtown, CT, movie premieres were canceled, TV episodes were pulled, there were disclaimers before the season finales of Homeland and Dexter, and radio pretty much stopped playing Ke$ha's song "Die Young," because of obvious reasons. (No, one of those obvious reasons isn't because it gives you chlamydia of the ears.) Die Young, which was released over 2 months ago, was #3 on radio playlists before the shooting and as of yesterday, it lost almost 19 million listeners. It had a good run, but that shit probably won't be heard on the radio anymore and will drop straight into the dumpster next to Ke$ha's regular sleeping place. Ke$ha went on Twitter to apologize for the song and then tweeted (and later deleted) that some mysterious being made her sing out those lyrics, which she co-wrote. The DEBUL made Ke$hit sing it!

So who ever forced Ke$ha (SPOILER ALERT: It was the Illuminati) to sing those lyrics, couldn't force her to get a flea bath too? Damn them. And Teen Mom Jenelle didn't show up to court or her scheduled visit with her daughter, because she was too busy doing something way more important like protest in the streets over this injustice!

I actually like her new song. But like a lot of her songs the music sounds like it was ripped off from Kylie Minogue.

I wish she would defend the song a little better, it's a good song and it's got a deeper meaning, ie playing with the idea that partying hard causes you to die young.. eh. this definitely takes her credibility down. these songs aren't at all what caused the tragedy, she should have ignored the haters.

"I Don't Like Mondays," "Jeremy," and "Pumped Up Kicks"--songs about school shooters (I'm sure there are more). "Die Young"--goofy party song.

crazyinjapan's picture

Her song has nothing to do with children being murdered. This is so dumb. Is she trying to capitalize on the shooting to get publicity for her album? Who cares?

That "Pumped Up Kicks" song is crazy and catchy. I think the songwriter was trying to get into the head of a person who would do such a thing.

Everybody wants to know why.

In 1998, I was starting my "career" (didn't work out) as a reporter for my hometown newspaper. I was sitting in the newsroom editing one of my ignorant colleague's error-ridden articles when the police radio started calling for ambulances, all ambulances, from our town and surrounding towns. We got the news quickly. An 11-year-old and a 13-year old shot up their middle school, killing a teacher and five children. The whole story is epic (in the true sense of the word, not the way kids use it), and I should probably write it up as a book. Anyway, I agonized and pondered over WHY. Fifteen years later, I realize now that there is no why. People who do this are insane. But I do think that they do this at least partly for recognition. How to stop it? Gun control won't work because this country is flooded with guns. Any insane moron can get them. Crimes like this are the price we pay for loving our guns so much. I propose we quit releasing the names or the identities of the killers and rob them of their notoriety. That would take away at least part of their motivation. Most reputable news outlets do not report on suicides because it has a tendency to somehow encourage more people to commit suicide. If they quit reporting on the shooters, I don't think it would completely stop the shootings, but I do think it might help.

@Whamo and MissJaneTexas,

Did you see that idiot John Lott on TV trying so desperately to prove EVERYONE should own guns and that the weapons used in Newtown were no more dangerous than a handgun? Fucking moron. You can shoot all those people in 15 minutes with a handgun.

If Amazon lowered the price of "Die Young" to 99 cents, I would buy the MP3. But I ain't paying $1.29 for that shit. That extra 30 cents is a deal-breaker.

It's kind of easy to always just call a minor or young adult a "monster" or something like that without understanding what could have drove them to that in the first place.

---------------------------------------------------
I agree. Just last night I was wondering how many "sweet little angels" grow up to be the guys that called Adam Lanza a "retard", stole his lunch money, and locked him in a locker? By no means am I callous to the deaths of those babies, but I wonder how much bullying Adam had to endure in his lifetime.

****

All of THIS. The same thoughts crossed my mind and I have actually been afraid to verbalize them because of how strongly everyone has reacted to the shooting. Plus, if he had just killed HIMSELF and no one else, we'd be hearing how he was a misfit his whole life and it would be all, "Bullying needs to STOP, we can't let any more of these poor innocents end their lives." I just find it interesting.

------------------------------------------
And this is why I love Dlisted ---RATIONAL HUMAN BEINGS. Like everyone else is saying...im not saying it's justified but did you hear what some of the shit one of the Columbine kids had to deal with in regards to bullying? Guys would literally throw their shit at him in the locker room. I mean...how fucked up is that?

I work with a guy that has Aspbergers and most of the staff doesn't care about his "condition" they just can't stand his ass. The things they say about him are horrible and they treat him like crap. Granted, it is nearly impossible to be patient with him because he says the most inappropriate, rude, ridiculous things and is terrible at his job....but still. It's not easy for him here. I wonder if he'll snap one day...though he seems pretty oblivious to people's annoyances with him.

I just read that there were no medications in the shooter's system. I'm sure every drug company is heaving a sigh of relief as whatever he would have been taking would have been blamed by today's loony MSM and politicians.

As difficult as it is to "defend" Adam Lanza's horrible actions we do have to remember he didn't just come out of the womb a mass murderer... Systematic abuse from society turned him into that.

Now if you will all excuse me I think my wretched cold is finally going to let me get some sleep.

In response to somebody saying Kesha was making this tragedy all about her---that's bullshit. TMZ and other websites kept reporting that radios were yanking the song and she was apparently being bitched at on Twitter for her song (by her followers which is hilarious). While the CT shooting IS a tragedy going after Kesha over this song is complete and utter bullshit. This song was 'popular' long before the shooting. It was played constantly on the radio. I'm not a Kesha fan by any means but this song had fucking nothing to do with this shooting. You know who the blame needs to go to for this shooting? The fucking shooter who went into a school and gunned down innocent children. I doubt this song made him do it.

I'm sure it's true she was forced to sing this song, but at the end of the day I doubt she was forced to be a pop singer. If she wanted to lead a quiet life she could have. These idiots sell their soul for fame and fortune. I have no time for them whatsoever. They're only job is to dumb down and pass on negative and low vibrational messages. Arseholes.

It's very interesting to see that Sandy Hook was shown on a map for the dark knight, and when someone pointed it out on you-tube it was pulled down as "violence". When it was a picture. Of a name.

I've reported genuinely sick you tube videos (as have others) and they're remained on there.

Sick world we live in at the moment. At least Kesha has pointed out something we've known all along. However I'm sure she's happy to go along with it providing she gets her big fat check. Bitch.
