Tell us when the joke is over... you almost had me thinking that you actually liked her for the music... hahaha... no serious, tell me that you don't actually like her music (by her music I mean the songs the record labels write for her...).

Kidding... or am I?

Like my Dad always told me, it's not cheating unless you get caught. If it's "only the first time", that's one time too many. A

Yeah.. I understand. I wasn't really much of a fan when that happened.. so I laughed my *** off. But I heard her tunes on TV and loved them. I bought the album in last Feb. and I listened to it 6 times the first day. I friggin loved it. And I listened to some bootlegs.. man was she awful! Plus she was sick when they did the SNL thingy..

She finally learned to sing correctly, and she's amazing now. BUT she's kind of whiney sounding. But I still like her voice, whiney or not.

"...the songs the record labels write for her..."

Ash is different. Every song on her albums give her writing credit. On her TV show (Yeah, she had a show) they showed her writing and recording her tunes.

I like her for her music, the way she handles pressure and did I mention she's hot? Image

She's a guilty pleasure. Image





This is not a joke.

Hats off if you are willing to stand by your tastes. Korn was once my favorite band (shudders...) and at about the same time I was into Tori Amos (odd combo... teen angst I suppose), a dark secret that I like to hide. I even wanted a 5-string once (gasp) and I almost bought a peavey cirrus bass (cough).

Since then I have found my way; I play rics and listen to zeppelin, atdi, etc.

I'll give Nate credit. At least he does have great taste when it comes to looking at women. Also, at least Nate (or anyone else for that matter) didn't do like a "friend" of mine did. My "friend" thought Geddy was a woman at first, when hearing his higher pitched singing notes while looking at an early 70's picture of him!!! Image

Rush: Plays great music.

Ashlee Simpson/Jessica Simpson: Just looks great. That's all. Image

Yup! It's great! It's so different!

"Ashlee Simpson: Just looks great. That's all."

Yup, she's beautiful! There are a couple features about her that I'm not too fond about and won't mention here, but she's purdy!
I absolutely love her voice though.. if anyone wants me to send 'em a song of hers that I love I will.. she's not really that bad, I swear!

"At least he does have great taste when it comes to looking at women."

Thanks for the compliment, Rob.
