Is "Hey Ya" the most depressing "happy" song ever?

[Darts]

Dre was just keeping it real...nothing lasts forever (rap duos).

Yea, especially when you hear this cover:

Obadiah Parker - Hey Ya [HD] - YouTube

You get a sense for the lyrics better. The OG is a classic though.

a sense for the lyrics better? what does that even mean? How can someone else have a better "sense" for the lyrics you created yourself?

Andre made that song like he did on purpose. I'm sick of seeing people covering this song and seeing comments like "oh this is the good version, not that crazy version that black guy made"

It feels like they're saying "that guy wrote a good song but didn't know how to perform it. this is how you do it, over some corny acoustic indie dross"

Dre gets touted as a great, but true geniuses like Krayzie Bone never get mentioned

One of the GOAT pop songs.

One of the most greatest storytellers of all time.

I hate how lil nikkas shyt on him,

I'm gonna use this post to shyt on these fake ass soccer moms who Stan Ceelo "Greene" but shyt on rap music.

These bytches Cee-lo fans but never heard of the Goodie Mob???

No lie, just yesterday I was on the train and I saw a poster for Goodie Mob, for a performance I think, and that shyt said "featuring Cee-Lo Green"

I'm standing there like " but that motherfukker IS in Goodie Mob"

But I can't blame people for not knowing he actually used to rap.
