The Divine Ms. C does it again

So it's only what? The third week of the year and we already have an amazing contender for song of the year. That's right, while all the drama of this season's American Idol is just getting started, the original Idol is poised to dominate the dance floor this year. My Life Would Suck Without You is Awesome. That's right, capital A. I know, it's basically Since U Been Gone part deux, but really, is there anything wrong with that? Since U Been Gone is one of my favorite songs of all time. So what if the beginning sounds exactly the same as SUBG? The middle is kinda different? People are complaining this is pop radio trash but you know what? It's what I enjoy. All those music snobs can go and ohh and ahh and cry over Fleet Foxes and Bon Iver. I want music that makes me happy. This is it.

The gay boys are going to eat this shit up. I can just picture myself losing my shit at The Ritz or The Boatslip when this song comes on. It has an amazing, soaring hook that just begs you to get up off your ass, sing along with your best friend or fag hag, and flair about and/or play air guitar. Basically what I did every time Since U Been Gone was played. Plus, the lyrics are so generic people can relate to the song in hundreds of different ways. I've already applied it to my hubby, by friend, and my dog. I mean, my life would kinda suck without any of them. Imagine the unbridled joy of screaming this song into your best friends face - it'll be alot more fun than "shut your mouth I just can't take it." You can play SUBG when you break up with your mean and MLWSWY during the makeup sex. Loves it.
