I’ve been meaning to pick up Lenka’s album for a while, but only recently got around to it.
And in listening to it, I thought “I like this a lot, which is probably why I got the ‘Show’ track a few months back. Since I like this and it isn’t on the radio constantly, I’m sure some fuckstick at ABC will ass-ram it in to a Grey’s Anatomy soundtrack just to wound my god damn soul and turn everything I liked and found first in to overplayed garbage that I am way too fucking cool to listen to anymore.”
So, I checked. But for the first time, they beat me. So, well done, you. Soulless douchenozzle at ABC.
On a tangent here, why do people watch that show? I’ve been fortunate enough to have only seen it a few times, and I swear, the plot is the same every fucking time. It can’t be coincidence:
- The chick who plays Grey (I dunno, I guess that’s her name. The one who is like 40 years old, but is still an intern, sleeps with the guy who played the dork in Can’t Buy Me Love, and talks like she ate gravel for breakfast) makes some witless observation that just so happens to have everything to do with the upcoming plot.
- The blonde girl Katherine something or other has some strange emotional thing that causes her to either contemplate quitting, or nearly kill someone.
- The dork from Can’t Buy Me Love sort-of makes some commitment to Grey, then something happens and she bitches about it for the rest of the episode.
- OH FUCK! HUGE TRAGEDY! HOW WILL THE DOCTORS POSSIBLY OVERCOME THIS CATASTROPHE?
- Sandra Oh says something bitchy.
- The gay-in-real-life guy fails at relationships.
- THANK GOD THE SASSY BLACK LADY SAVED THE DAY WITH HER NO-NONSENSE MENTORING!
- Grey babbles on about how she learned something, which she will inevitably forget by next week.
I just don’t understand why they have to use decent music for their awful show.
