The only real bone I have to pick with the Kesha (not typing Ke$ha out of protest) song “Your Love Is My Drug” concerns the fact that it is the worst song in the history of music. Now, hating the worst song in the world for being the worst song in the world is a pretty futile exercise that doesn’t serve anyone, so instead let’s concern ourselves with the fact that it wasn’t promptly obscured in some dusty record store promptly after being recorded. It was on Saturday Night Live.
Even this wouldn’t be a problem, since I took the liberty of skipping SNL this weekend, but there’s cause to mention it: Kesha’s performance appears to have been ripped off from a music video by the band Fake Problems. Kesha, like Fake Problems, performs a crappy song while wearing fluorescent body art under a black light.
There’s a highlight worth mentioning, though: at the end of the performance, Kesha asks, “It’s Saturday Night. Want to make out?” The audience declines to answer. I’ll answer: No thanks, lady: I already have a girlfriend! While it is true that I have fetishized the movie Tron, I would get fluorescent stuff all over me. There’s no way I wouldn’t get caught. Clearly you didn’t think things through here, which is sort of what this performance was all about, right?

The ICP/Juggalo spoof continues to be the best thing on SNL this year.
bloggers have girlfriends?
My favorite part of that Kesha(also not typing Ke$ha out of protest)performance on SNL was when she stopped singing.
finally an excuse to ‘exercise’ with the shake weight and grease up with hi-lighters.
This is hardly a new thing. I saw shows like this at Kings Island (southwest OH amusement park) in the 80′s.
It wasn’t a bad SNL other than the Ke$ha performances
Did Ke$ha steal that neon paint from some obscure native tribe? She has gone from un-original to aboriginal.
Her backup dancers were comically terrible. The show itself wasn’t all that bad
more like abhor-riginal….amirite??!?!
Busta Rhymes would like Kesha to put her hands where his eyes can see.

She totally ripped off Jeff Hardy.
She totally ripped off all middle school kids on halloween and all college kids who like to put highlighters in Absolute vodka bottles.

Uffie is way hotter and was doing this sound, for better or for worse, for years.
Are you really going to give that Fake Problems band all the credit for neon paint and a black light? It’s not like I’m defending Keisha, it’s definitely a tired premise, but it wasn’t original when that terrible band did it for their video either.
Chili Peppers did it [www.youtube.com]
15 posts and FINALLY someone mentions the Chili Peppers!
Alf mention Chili Peppers! I thought they gave him toxic gas syndrome. And how he tried so many times to eat the cat.
To me her song “Your Love is My Drug” sounds kind of sexual. To illiterate this, think about the song “December” by Collective Soul. “Just turn your head and spit me out”. Then listen to hers’, “Your Love, is my drug” and with words like “Slumber Party in my basement”. Sounds like she gave a lot of blowjobs during her youth in her basement. And she is trying to hide it with this song. That’s probablly why she asked to make out at the end, for another dose of that drug.
Bourgeois Tagg used black light on their “Perfect Life” video in 1986. check it out on YouTube.
