Hey! There’s nothing I love MORE than having favorite songs butchered. Particularly beloved New Wave classics from the 80’s! No they di’int! (OMG they did) and NO I don’t!
Katharine McPhee sings lead on a cover of the classic Waitresses’ tune “I Know What Boys Like”, and the song is beyond craptastic. Snark? Satire? Completely absent from this new version. Kinda pointless if you ask me. Oh yeah, I guess the point is to put together a lame song to run over the credits of Kat’s upcoming movie “The House Bunny”. Oh. Goody.
Plus, the production sucks, the rapping is crappy, and I hate the gratuitous runs. Not loving, it. Sorry!
Both versions are posted After the JUMP… What do you think?
Kat’s “version”:
The Waitresses original version…ahhhh…:
BONUS! The Waitresses’ perenial Christmas Classic, “Christmas Wrapping”
