For the final blog of this class let me tell you, I have been waiting for this one. WAITING TO WRITE ABOUT THIS SONG. For this blog I chose Hey Ya by the one and only Outkast. If you have not heard this masterpiece I think you have been living under a rock. This has been one of my all time favorite songs since I was little. Like literally 6 years old. This song is perfect truly one of the best songs ever made. Andre 3000 did what was needed to make an impact with this song. He is so amazing and he made Hey Ya! What it is. Not only is this song still played when it was made over 20 years ago but it is still LOVED. People from my generation and the generation before love Hey Ya. Everyone loves Hey Ya and rightfully so. The lyrics in this song phenomenal the beat is outstanding. This is the best dance and party songs ever made. Yeah I said it the best ever made. This song has a chokehold on me and I am proud of that. I actually judge people and determine if they are gonna be cool or not based off if they know all the words to this song. Is that morally correct? I don't know and don't care. I love this song so much it is so good and the funnest song to sing and dance and party too. If you do not like Hey Ya I don't think you like having fun. This is the one of the most iconic songs of the 2000s and of all time. It changed the rap game and Andre 3000 is one of the all time greatest for that. So, if you haven't listened to Hey Ya this week. GO! RUN! AND LISTEN BECAUSE IT IS THE GREATEST SONG MADE.
This was very interesting to read Jamie. You are very passionate about this song and that is awesome. It is definitely a certified slapper if you will. When Outkast said "Hey Ya" that really resonated with me. This song is really iconic, great post 10/10 would recommend.
ReplyDeleteI love how passionate you are about this song! I agree that it is a really good song and everyone should listen to it at one point or another. Like you said, I think it is super cool that the song came out over 20 years ago but people are still enjoying it to this day. That really goes to show what a big impact it had.
ReplyDeleteI like how much you love this song. I think that this unit is more fun because we are more familiar with the songs. I agree that the beat is really fun. I also think that the unique sound of this song make it one that people still listen to.
ReplyDeleteOk I have listened to this song since I was young and it's just so unique and fun! Like you said it makes me want to dance and just feels so positive. I think the tone of Andre 3000 is unique and makes this song memorable. I also like the addition of background singers for harmonies and the call and repeat in the song.
ReplyDeleteHey Jamie! First off, let me just say umm YES? It is of course morally right to judge people based off of their music taste. I mean come on! I LOVE how passionate about this song you are, I think it's crazy cool. I too love a good dancey dance song and this is definitely a golden one. For sure.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh!! To see that you are in love with Outkast brought my soul joy! In high school I really fell in love with them. One of my all time favorite songs from them is "Roses". That song is soo good! Most of their music is just iconic! Not to mention that anytime that one of their songs comes on the radio everyone in the car starts jamming to the song. In conclusion your post made my day!
