Lindsey Lawrence, a Seattle resident, apparently does not appreciate songs by the band Coldplay. She assaulted a man at a karaoke bar when he began singing Coldplay’s song “Yellow.”
It is unclear why Coldplay’s music apparently made Lawrence snap, though a famous June 2005 New York Times appraisal by Jon Pareles may offer an insight. The critic called the British group “the most insufferable band of the decade,” adding that, “the lyrics can make me wish I didn’t understand English.”
GodTube.com. Yup, Christian video sharing. The front page currently features self-adulation, songs to God about “lost” friends, a cute girl saying a Bible verse, a tribute to Jerry Falwell, and… more self-adulation.
I’m not sure how bad I think this idea is. Oh wait, no, I found a perfect example.
