Congratulations to the Black Eyed Peens...

If, by some miracle, you've managed to see past the god-awful post titles on this blog you might be reading this, and if you are, then congratulations to you too, for not being shallow and judgemental. To those deep, generous and loving people still with us, we're here to tell you that the Black Eyed Peas (or is it just Black Eyed Peas with no 'the'?) are currently holding the number 1 AND number 2 spots on the coveted American Billboard Hot 100 singles chart. That's the number 1 spot, with "Boom Boom Pow", and the number 2 spot, with "I Gotta Feeling". Two unique and distinctly trashy hot pop songs for the year 2009. Two songs that this year sound about as fresh as it is possible to get without squeezing Lady GaGa's breasts into a can of Kanye juice.

Two songs that will also, this time next year, by very VIRTUE of their instant freshness sound about as dated, cold and horrible as it is possible for two songs to sound.
