Cover art for The Time (Dirty Bit) lyrics by Black Eyed Peas, The

I have to say that is seems like the continuation of a downfall for the Black Eyed Peas. This song obviously uses the chorus of "(I've Had)The Time of my life," a song about love and being at the peak of your life. Black Eyed Peas turned that tranquil meaning into just meaning less, I want to party attitude.

It exemplifies pop music of today with it's occasional use of low tone vocals, musical stutters (if you can call them musical), recycling of words from other pop songs. It's nothing new, but it lets the public know that the Peas have really knocked themselves off of the top-notch productions of their early 2000's material.

"A-All these girls they like my swagger They calling me Mc Jagger I be rolling like a stone"

This line is the answer to one of Ke$ha's pop hits. I hope the Peas haven't sunk that low.

The song also uses references to popular apple products, also seen in Sean Kingston's "replay." Perhaps because it's popular and he can rhyme.

I think the only phrase used in this song that hasn't popularly been used before is:

"Cause I'm having A good time with you"

Which shows that Peas are desperate to make another pop hit to play at parties, focusing on quantity, not quality, the downfall of popular music these days.

While I love that you share me disappointment of BEP's decrease in quality, there are a few things in your argument that I hate to have to point out. First of all, it's Mick Jagger. That's his full name; his last name isn't McJagger. Second, Replay is by IYAZ, not Sean Kingston (which is a common misconception, although I'd thought it was well known by now that it was by IYAZ).
