...been saying the whole time? I thought I knew [Billy Joel's] "We Didn't Start the Fire" and then I looked at the lyrics and realized I had at least three or four of the entries about the 1950s wrong. And for 20 years, I'd thought the chorus to David Bowie's "Young Americans" was "She was a young American." While at karaoke earlier this summer, I realized he was actually singing "she wants a young American." It's only one word, but it completely changes the meaning of the song, and I was so taken aback that...
...collaboration with Chris Rock, “Everybody Hates Chris,” Rock shoots off a routine satirizing Ludacris as “the only rapper that doesn’t bring a gun to the airport.” The rapper sings the rousing, repetitive chorus of “Fuck you, Luda,” which is more than enough to demonstrate Ludacris can still poke fun at himself. Luda’s most brilliant moments are those metaphors that make you laugh out loud with their bizarre lewdness or popular culture references, such as when...
Like eggnog or reruns of it's a wonderful life, college football fans' grumbling over the Bowl Championship Series (BCS)--the muddled method by which the sport anoints its national champion--has become a December rite.

Cries of "Death to Pakistan!" were frequent refrains in the chorus that now accompanies New Delhi and Islamabad's testy wrangling over the pursuit of terror suspects living in Pakistan. Lines of well-wishers snaked by the windows of police vans to shake the hands of the security personnel inside. Men with guns seemed far more popular than those with electoral mandates, though many in the crowd did not favor war. "We want real action," says Radikha Varma...
...media may have branded the storming of some of Mumbai's most iconic sites as "India's 9/11," but the nonpartisan unity displayed by U.S. politicians in the wake of the 2001 attacks is nowhere to be seen in India's political arena. And Indian TV is blaring a chorus of public anger and recrimination, much of it directed at the country's bickering political classes...
