timepiececlockI don't understand the point behind the song "Miss Independant" by Kelly Clarkson.
So there's a girl who's "independant" and "self-sufficient", "unafraid", smart, and in control of her life. And she falls in love, and she loses all these things.
But she's better for it, because now she had love?
the hell?
Am I missing something in the lyrics? Way to halt that stereotype in its tracks, Kelly. Now go find a man, give him all your money, and never sing again unless he's instructing you directly on how to do it. ::pukes::
This song, on the other hand, cracks my shit up every time I hear it. At first it's sweet and innocuous... until you start to pay attention to the words. ;)
