Defeat - And Challenge

How was there any way for me to know a cute Barbadian girl would inspire so much vitriol in the blog reading public? Rihanna and her umbrella have been the hottest topics on Made of Trash since ever, and I'm finally willing to accept defeat. "Umbrella" is not the best pop song to come out this year, and therefore unworthy to be the official theme tune of my Summer of Dreamz.

So, what song should it be? Anything hot and danceable hit the turntables recently that has the moxie to catch the hearts and souls of dreamerz all around?

See, that's the thing, Ashley. Even if these lame-o's don't like the Umbrella, I challenge them to find a better pop song that's out this summer. There's not one.

Someone's going to hate me, but that Peter Bjorn & John song is Song of the Summer (yes, I'm aware it's been out for some time, but I dare you to listen to the radio for 10 minutes and say you didn't hear it). It's this year's Crazy.

It's a year old, but fucking Rehab. Or better yet, Sugar Mama (yes, I know--also a year old).

My song for the summer of Deuce-Double-O-7 is definitely Herb Alpert's "Whipped Cream". It's 37 years old, but damn if it doesn't perfectly capture the spirit of the moment. And I've been hearing it everywhere.

Humor me and download it before you hate.

My vote is absolutely for "D.A.N.C.E." I just don't know if it's mainstream enough to hit all the dreamerz out there.

Music taste used to be a good litmus test for who is cool and who isn't. I don't think that's true anymore. Music in general has lost it's cool and the people making it aren't interesting either. I blame Myspace.

Instead of celebrating the Summer of Dreamz with music and dance parties, can't we all just write creative fiction or something?
