Take It Off is Ke$ha's best song, single and music video to date. I'm not budging on any of that. Everything about that song *uses hand gestures to suggest everything* is on point. The lyrics, the production, the message, the delivery and execution... brilliant. It's not just another party pop song, it's a self-acceptance anthem and should have SMASHED like We R Who We R did.
I didn't even know that the people in the Get Sleazier video were drag queens, but that doesn't change anything for me. The original version of Sleazy is flawless and the remix just detracts from the original with all of those unnecessary rap verses; even the Die Young Remix with ****ing Juicy J, Wiz Khalifa and Becky G is better than that unnecessary remix. The fact that she bothered to make a video for that and not the original is perhaps contributing to the reason why I dislike it so much. There are so many other songs on Animal and Cannibal more deserving of a MV than that trash remix.
Also, I disagree that Ke$ha wouldn't be a bigger star had the songs she wanted to release been singles. If Animal was a single, IDK... I love the song and it would have been a nice single I guess but We R Who We R came at the right time and, as I said, I probably wouldn't change the Animal era given the chance. But Cannibal needed to have a third single, and that third single needed to be The Harold Song. Ke$ha's party image was still largely popular, but by Mid-2011 a track like The Harold Song - which was still pop enough for pop radio - would have done wonders for her reputation. It also would have made the wait for her new era seem a lot less, since it'd be on the charts up until the last few months of 2011.
Had Die Young not been the lead single, or the chorus different, it wouldn't have suffered the Sandy Hook backlash or contributed to more album sales if a track list Last Goodbye was selected. But I've said this before and apparently I'm the only one who feels that Die Young was the wrong lead single choice.

Out Alive is the better track of Warrior's generic trinity.
Out Alive > All That Matters (The Beautiful Life) > Wherever You Are
I don't really consider C'Mon all that generic, or at the very most its the fourth most generic track on Warrior.
I would agree with all of this. I can see why people might find "C'mon" generic, but it's got too many memorable moments that I just can't see it that way.

Mhm, exactly. Like technically it's one of the more generic tracks on Warrior since it's party pop and such, but it's one of the better ones, too. I'm actually thinking that perhaps Die Young and even Crazy Kids may be more generic than C'Mon... I'm still undecided on that. The former three are definitely more generic than the three singles, though.
