Alanis Morrisette cover of Fergie’s “My Humps” says something about American culture, I think
You Tube ^ | 4/4/7

It's a seriocomedic commentary on the vatuousness and vulgar excesses of American popular culture. Watch it and see for yourself:

My Humps

A devastating and deserved shot at Fergie and the plethora of no-talent “stars” being pawned off on the world.

Typical Alanis, imo.

I want to see a rendition of London Bridge next.

I'd prefer Leonard Cohen doing Sexyback

She's a singer, and at age 12, was a star on the great 80s children's program You Can't Do That on Television.

You forgot to mention that Fergie Ferg was little Stacy Ferguson on Kids, Incorporated-- making this parody by Alanis even more perfect.

I have no idea, but she’s hot.

Sure, if you have a thing for loudmouthed, uncouth, profane, bitter, malnourished hags who would not spit on you if you were on fire- and who would probably soak you in kerosene and throw the match to begin with. Morrissette is a boring, ill-tempered creature.

Give me a joyful, emotionally-mature woman of noble character and natural charm any day. (And, what do you know... those wonderful attributes are found in abundance in my bride of 18 years. Hooray for me!)

I thought it a good cross between fatuous and vacuous. Both apply.

I have found respect for Alanis (although she is still a flaming liberal-Canadian).

I recently explored the lyrics for this oh so popular group....they are filthy. I think it says volumes about American parents allowing their children to listen to these no talent “sex sells” groups.

Should read, "Alanis Morrisette cover of Fergie’s “My Humps” says something about hip-hop culture, I think". Mind you, Alanis is a flaming lib, but even a broken clock is right twice a day.

I haven’t heard lyrics so profound since the heyday of the Spice Girls.
