"people are clutching their pearls over WAP like Mozart didn't write a song called 'Lick My Ass'" -- a failed opera singer ([twitter.com profile] sopranohsnap), 2020-08-11

[From the reply thread: Wikipedia entry for the 1872 song, a recording on YouTube, and for good measure, a YouTube link for a Thomas Morley song (1600) germane to the discussion.]

Honestly.

Although this discussion did apparently inspire Ben Shapiro's Greatest Self-Burn Of All Time, so there is that.

Right? Like WAP is inherently good because it made me laugh and making people laugh is good, but the Ben Shapiro thing is making me laugh every day, sometimes multiple times a day, so it's been elevated to the best song of the summer.

This entire discussion is wildly educational. I had no idea any of this was going on. Or went on. I thought the Morley link was going to be to "Take a Pound of Butter", but in retrospect, it's by Purcell (Youtube).
