"Spaceship" by Puddle of Mudd

Puddle of Mudd, the name of the group says it all. All of their CD's should be thrown in a puddle of mudd. Ever since the classic (that is sarcasm, by the way) "She F*****g Hates Me", this group has been on my radar as one of the worst in music. They were discovered by Fred Durst of Limp Bizket, so you know they are classy. If you have never listened to a Puddle of Mudd song, consider yourself a blessed person or a lucky person. They are very poor songwriters, very poor musicians, and Wes Scantlin's
voice makes me wish that I was listening to someone scraping their fingernails down a chalkboard. That might be harsh, but if you have heard "the Mudd", you know exactly what I mean. For crying out loud, try NOT singing through your nose for one second!!
But I digress. This song is another one of those "clever" ways to say "Hey, I have nothing to sing about and I like sex, so let me come up with the most un-original pick up line I can think of and attempt to craft a song around it!" This is what Scantlin did here. He wants to "get her pannies on the floor" and "take her for a little ride". That not only makes me cringe, but it offends me. Not as a christian or a moral person, but as a songwriter. I am offended that someone can make money off of something that you would hear some guy with the nickname "slick Eddie"
say. The cadence in the song is not to bad, if you enjoy a cadence that you have heard literally over 20 times before. The big thing that "the Mudd" is known for is sounding just like every other trashy rock band out there. They are less original than Creed, and that is saying something. As a side, I am a little creep ed out by the statement "sweat dripping down you little back". The word makes me think he is talking to someone small, as in, not full grown. I am just a little uncomfortable with that line. I know that he needed the words to flow right, but this is one place that a cuss word would have been better. (I can't believe that I really just said that!)
This song is bad. Again, it is not the worst, actually, it may be the worst. If you choose to listen to it, it is around 4 minuets of your life that you can NEVER get back. I am telling you this as a public service announcement.

SPACESHIP by Puddle of Mudd

Yeah .. alright

A long time ago in a galaxy far awasted
