It is ironic how creeps, freaks and convicts crawl out of their pits to make highly provocative statements then disappear. I wouldn't expect such cowards to come out in the open and mingle with the people, because they know what would happen to them.
The way some of them talk about demonstrators and female protesters in particular is not only rude, but also proves how ignorant they are.
If I were to compile a soundtrack to answer them, I would choose a few songs to tell them off. Knowing that my readers are decent people, I will not use songs with offensive vocabulary in their titles.
‘Creeps' are the kind of people we are going to talk about this week, but we are not the first to do so – American rock band Radiohead mentioned these creatures in a beautiful song. It is very hard to even imagine that a creep could be associated with a work of art.
TLC is short for Tionne ‘T-Boz' Watkins, Lisa ‘Left Eye' Lopes and Rozonda ‘Chilli' Thomas, the American rhythm and blues trio that gave us a hit called ‘Creep'. Were they predicting the future of Egypt with all those freaks around? Anyway, TLC is also short for ‘tender loving care', something we could never offer these criminals who attack females in every possible way.
They are simply more twisted than Twisted Sister, the American rock band that had a hit with ‘We're Not Gonna Take It', which is exactly what Egyptian females should be saying loud and clear to these fanatical harassers. By the way, Twisted Sister was a male band! However, female dresses and heavy makeup were constantly used by band members. So there were no sisters but the twisted part was there, nevertheless.
Never mind the sisters and let's move on to the boys, the Beastie Boys to be precise. This American rock/hip hop trio encouraged demonstrators by saying ‘(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Protest)', which is exactly what they... I think the title of that hit is ‘(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party)'. My keyboard is playing tricks on me... or is it me playing tricks on you? Either way, Egypt has seen more protests than parties over the past two years.
It seems we have mentioned a lot of American artists and bands this week and we are still not done yet. Members of the American rock band Ugly Kid Joe were very frank and bluntly said, “I hate everything about you" on the funny number ‘Everything about You'. That is how the majority of Egyptians feel about these weirdoes.
This track's title might lead people to think that it is a love song with corny words about how the man loves everything about his woman. Where do they come up with names like this for their bands?
In the case of Ugly Kid Joe, there is a reason – that name was chosen to make fun of another American rock band called Pretty Boy Floyd! Pretty boy? Thank-you very much, I'd rather listen to ugly kid. I guess the sick retards running round the streets of Egypt wouldn't mind harassing a pretty boy... in fact they've already harassed a man – as he was trying to protect a girl in Tahrir Square on January 25!
On her hit ‘Whatever I Do (Wherever I Go)' British Hi-NRG singer Hazel Dean asked a very important question: “Who are you to turn the knife?" She then added, “I am not your sacrifice." Well said Hazel. No-one, regardless of their position, authority or status, has the right to turn knives and sacrifice a gender.
American rock singer Beck must have been talking about these offenders when he sang ‘Loser'. What a bunch of losers. They've tried to scare women, but now women are carrying weapons and taking martial arts classes, so let's see who's going to be scared now.
American rock band 3 Doors Down told us about that same ‘Loser'. Are these criminals everywhere? I guess they are, but hopefully not for long. I know where they should be – in prison.
If I had to make a wish I would definitely go for the same wish American rapper (I said “rapper" and not “rapist") Coolio made when he said ‘C U When U Get There'. I would like to see all those criminals behind bars and I will do whatever I can to see them when they get there. I will see them on TV of course.
The Queen of Rock, Tina Turner, ordered them to ‘Show Some Respect', but it seems she was asking for the impossible because such monsters don't even know the meaning of this word. That ‘order' was on her brilliant 1984 album ‘Private Dancer'.
I guess some of these creeps would like to have a private dancer – they keep talking about ethics, then we read about another one of their scandals. As soul and R&B icon Barry White said on his song, ‘Practise What You Preach'.
Back to queens... even before Tina, another queen demanded that ‘Respect'. Aretha Franklin, the Queen of Soul, had a hit with ‘Respect' in 1967. Although this number has always been associated with Aretha, it was originally a track by Otis Redding two years earlier.
American group the Staple Singers also spoke of respect on ‘Respect Yourself', which is advice those who slander women here should have taken. When they disrespect women in general, they disrespect their own mothers as well. What kind of a person would do such a thing? A very sick one, I guess.
Finally, there is a message that I want to send to all women and girls, especially young ones, because they are our future. As Australian singer called John Farnham said, ‘You're the Voice'. You must always remember that and don't ever let anyone stop you from speaking your mind and saying how you feel loud and clear.
