Oh Gweny


As I was watching VH1 (one of my many addicitions), a special came on entitled, "Box Set: Gwen Stefani". Since it was late, and we all know that nothing is on TV late at night, I decided to continue watching even though my "fondness" for Gwen Stefani had died out when she left No Doubt.
As the show progressed, listing her songs and highlighting her newest music videos, I came to a conclusion...Gwen Stefani is a music theif. All of her recent "hits" have had someone elses music put behind it! Apparently her listeners don't care that she has stolen the music from Biggie Smalls, Fiddler on the Roof, and most recently, The Sound of Music. All she does to make it "her song" is put some of her crappy, recycled lyrics over the top of the stolen, once popular music.

Gwen Stefani was a much better musician when she was still with her band No Doubt. When they broke on the scene in the 90's they had a new and inventive sound that made them stand out from the clutter. But like a selfish, lead singer, Gwen had to break from the band and try to make it on her own for the simple objective of making more money. She should have stayed where she. This is my theory...she wanted to leave the band to make more money with a solo career. But after she realized that she had no talent without her band and that she has absolutely no creative bones in her body, she thought that she could get away with stealing other artist's songs without anyone putting up a fuss.

Well I'm here to put up a fuss! Why is Gwen Stefani so popular for her music when it isn't even hers?! She must be stopped and shown for the true "artist" she is...nothing special!
