Not even originally Tina Turner.

This trans-whale screaming is an affront to real whales, they look better and make much nicer sounds.

Credence Clearwater Revival originally sang this and their version is good. I enjoyed Ike and Tina’s as well. I guess I’m out of touch with pop culture because I don’t get the appeal of Lizzo. Unless supporting her gives you virtue signal points

"Unless supporting her gives you virtue signal points" It is this. I don't think she is awful, but she also isn't remarkable. She toiled in anonymity until she was well past the age a pop singer usually "makes it." And her massive spike in popularity just happened to coincide with the powers that be glorifying morbid obesity.

I see. I’m way out of touch with what’s current. This morning I was listening to the Carter Family and Muddy Waters. Overweight black women who can sing are pretty common (just visit a black church). I don’t hate her personally but I’m so sick of the fawning praise and how she is the face of the “obesity is a-okay” message

Ha! That would be a perfect joke for the SNL news segment. I think Norm Macdonald would say it

Let's do a comparison and see what you all think:

  • CCR - Proud Mary
  • Tina & Ike Turner - Proud Mary, circa 1970

I like them both. Overall I have all the albums of CCR. As for Ike and Tina I like Tina’s solo work more although I do like Ike’s Rocket 88 which is one of the songs that debated to be the first rock and roll song

If I had a car that looked this good, I'd make a song about it too.

That early era of Rock & Roll is very interesting because you can see the genera coming together from all over the place. It was a real, proper, viral cultural phenomenon.

I'm actually kind of offended by the "modern" car in the back. It's insulting.

That is a nice car! I know it’s an over simplification to say rock and roll is like blues and country having a baby but that’s the easiest way to define it. I love that era of music as well

A fat cow in a skimpy outfit will at least entertain somebody, but the blatant off-key sing singing at a concert is a new low.

Seriously, that "rollin" was 6, count 'em, 6 STEPS too high

It’s also at completely the wrong tempo…

Literally nothing about this is good, which is amusing…

She's so bad that you can barely tell what song is being sung.

Is this one of those things that women support for some shallow stupid reasons? I can't understand it, it is horrible to watch all that fat jiggle around and her voice is not great, I like the original but what is this crap? The only conclusion is that women support it to feel better about themselves and virtue signal how progressive they are?

If being fat and lazy is normal, then they get to be fat and lazy without having to feel bad about it. Simple as. It's why below average women are always pushing fat acceptance. They're trying to create a world where sitting there watching The View all day while eating 40 cakes is socially acceptable.

Every woman pushes it. The uggos and fatties benefit from lowered standards, and the thin and pretty ones benefit from reduced competition.

If you’re a solid 8 female who stays in shape, you can sleepwalk into the top 10%. You don’t even have to change out of your pajamas.

By definition, an 8 is already very close to the top 10%.

An 8 is literally capable of making money with her attractiveness.

I feel like you might actually be referring to a 6.

Not only that but women are now so overly selective (probably due to internet "dating sites") that even fat cows can get lots of male attention

OMFG, there is no hope. In this experiment they took an already disgusting fat slob and added a pig nose and hair all over her body, and the inbox was still blown up with actually decent looking dudes hitting on her: https://www.hiddendominion.com/the-online-dating-pig-experiment/

Men, what are you doing? I rag on women plenty: Why Men Don’t Want to Get Married, the Depravity of Modern Women, Betrayal is a women’s heart. But I can’t claim men are any better when we do this shit. This is an example of basic economics, though. If someone is willing to lower the price so significantly, you can’t compete. This is probably the lowest price in all of humanity. I don’t get mad at the market (women). You get mad at the competitors (men). These men are underbidding their worth and trying to bang literally anything. This destroys the market (gender interaction market).

Yeah, I think the right tends to miss this a lot. Men are a lot worse than they've ever been when it comes to emotional stoicism, discipline, and investing in a relationship.

I’d rather just watch footage of Tina Turner singing. Pretty ironic that if Lizzo had the same voice but was skinny/in shape she wouldnt nearly as famous

What a freak show.

Maybe she's actually a psyop to get people to lose weight? Who can look at that revolting blob bounce around and NOT lose appetite?

We’ve gone from the Janet Jackson “wardrobe malfunction” being a huge controversy to this shit being normalized…

Lizzo aside... oh, sorry, that would be portion shaming. Lizzo a full course and dessert plus snacks before and after, is the Twitter OP a real human? No, thankfully, OP is a satire account. I was worried for a moment.

Our culture was more dominant in the 1950's and 1960's than in the 80's and 90's, IMHO.
