Was thrilled last year when my daughters picked up on "Operator" by Shiloh among the choice lyrics "The magazines are messing with reality - it's entertaining - as long as we don't ever take it seriously - we'll keep on laughing" ... "Why would I wanna be anybody else but me...." My 9 year old put together a dance number that was phenomenal.... But then there was the video... and the question for the class is: Why does a great song that says "I'm good with me" have to feature putting another girl down? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9SjP_qoRgQ Happily, Miley doesn't do that....

among the choice lyrics “The magazines are messing with reality – it’s entertaining – as long as we don’t ever take it seriously – we’ll keep on laughing” … “Why would I wanna be anybody else but me….” My 9 year old put together a dance number that was phenomenal….

But then there was the video… and the question for the class is: Why does a great song that says “I’m good with me” have to feature putting another girl down?
