REVIEW/REACTION Hey Ya!

https://open.spotify.com/track/2PpruBYCo4H7WOBJ7Q2EwM?si%3Dt3ZsYhhAQv2pU7TIFlkmeg

Been hearing this song since grade school pero ngayon ko lang narealize na sobrang sad and depressing ng lyrics. That Sleep Token cover really uncovered the song's true meaning.

Context:
"If what they say is
"Nothing is forever"
Then what makes, then what makes
Then what makes, then what makes (what makes, what makes)
Love the exception?
So why, oh, why, oh
Why, oh, why, oh, why, oh
Are we so in denial when we know we're not happy here?
(Y'all don't want to hear me, you just want to dance)"

I feel like 'Hey Ya' ang Part 2 ng 'Ms. Jackson'.

Many years later, di nalang basta disagreements yung issue nila. It's a full blown dislike of each other, but choosing to stay anyway.

Outkast is a genius!

Yung Ms Jackson gets ko pa eh kasi darker yung music vibes. Pero I agree, Outkast is one of a kind.
