I've never been a big M.IA. fan, but I really like this song and the video.
love MIA says – reply to this

29

I lover MIA….it is too "different" for most people that listen to Avril Lavigne and all of the other trash main-stream music out there. Props to Perez for putting the underground artists on his site like this! IT's great for them. And if you haven't seen MIA live…then you really don't know what you're missing!! that show is just so full of energy!!

This is utter shite. What's there to "get"? it's not like she's writing like Joni Mitchell?!

Joe Strummer is rolling in his grave!! Just like Lily Allen, this bitch is a total sham. Acting like a chavette, singing about so-called "social issues", putting easily-identifiable artifacts of minorities all over your album covers doesn't make you an artist.

She's just fucking gimmicks. from the Clash sample to the poorly done gunshot-kaching riff, to filming in New York, to aping Madonna (a la Borderline video).

FUCK OFF ALREADY!!!!

45

I love the song - videos are boring in general and just distract from the music.

For those who say it's too mainstream, then listen to the rest of the album
Jorge Florez says – reply to this

46

My favorite track from the KALA album!
the sample taken from a The Clash song was brilliantly done!
I just wish these MIA songs charted better: they deserve it so much more than all that generic RNB/ Hip hop on Billboard…

...the fuh? says – reply to this

51

Are you freaking kidding? You should be banished from any social commentary for at least a week for posting this weak-ass video, Perez. You'd have to be certifiably insane to think this is worth watch. Turn off your computers, go outside, and get some exercise, people. This video is absolute rubbish.

Okay, so they censored the GUNSHOTS.
Fuck it, man! Like, as if their videos about girls showing their buttcrack and tits to everyone have an even better message!
This is just the same damn thing.. Get over it!
It's the truth, reality, so if anyone is pissed at this video they should shut up and just face ’cause it's the damn truth!
Thnx.

WOW NOW A DAYS ANYBODY CAN MAKE A VIDEO AND SING BULLSHT! I STILL ASK MYSELF WHY AM I NOT A SINGER? SINCE APPARENTLY ANYBODY CAN BE..
Carolina Amaris says – reply to this

62

I like her. She's smart, edgy, provocative, political, and entertaining. Her music is a different sound for this "New Generation" but it's very reminiscent of 80's and 90's Rap Music you know before they were rapping about BMW's and Ho's . The real problem here is Censorship. It's so funny how when Eminem this White boy would rap it was called Amazing and intelligent but this Woman who's doing the same thing as him is now being called out. Times never change.
stef says – reply to this

63

I am really excited about this artist. I think she can do some really interesting stuff and has alot of potential. I think the gun shots make alot of people uncomfortable but if that is her vision she should stick with it. It is hard to keep your integrity sometimes and I hope she continues to do that. This is an artist that I didn't really notice until recently and I hope she does well.
she sucks and she's ugly says – reply to this

64

EEEW WHO IS THIS? NEVER HEARD OF HER! THIS IS GARBAGE! PEREZ SUCKS FOR PUTTING UP THIS JOKE! I WANT MY 3 MINUTES BACK!
Stef says – reply to this

65

Re: Carolina Amaris – I agree with your thoughts on this I think a man would be allowed the gun shots but when a pretty young woman acts that way it is unacceptable to society. I want to thank you for putting a coherant post up.
take this shit off Perez!! says – reply to this

66

go back to indiaaaaaaaaa! and take this piece of trash with you! i think my brain's gonna melt! i can see why MTV doesn't put her up much.. she's an embarresment! i would kill MTV if they wasted my priceless time seeing this shit

she isn't talking about anything. My 3 year old can write a better song.
bijou says – reply to this

Still sucks… doesn't really have anything to do with the sound… but that actually makes it worse.

Yeah, gunshots, cash register rings, that's so *fresh

*GROAN*

this is the bottom of the barrel for "entertainment"

M.I.A. LYRICS

"Paper Planes"

[x2]
I fly like paper, get high like planes
If you catch me at the border I got visas in my name
If you come around here, I make 'em all day
I get one down in a second if you wait

[x2]
Sometimes I feel sitting on trains
Every stop I get to I'm clocking that game
Everyone's a winner now we're making that fame
Bonafide hustler making my name

[x3]
All I wanna do is (BANG BANG BANG BANG!)
And (KKKAAAA CHING!)
And take your money

[x2]
Pirate skulls and bones
Sticks and stones and weed and bongs
Running when we hit 'em
Lethal poison through their system

[x2]
No one on the corner has swag like us
Hit me on my burner prepaid wireless
We pack and deliver like UPS trucks
Already going hell just pumping that gas

[x3]
All I wanna do is (BANG BANG BANG BANG!)
And (KKKAAAA CHING!)
And take your money

M.I.A.
Third world democracy
Yeah, I got more records than the K.G.B.
So, uh, no funny business

Some some some I some I murder
Some I some I let go
Some some some I some I murder
Some I some I let go

Re: DB – Are you serious? When did you become the authority on what Joe Strummer would approve of? Shut up with your meaningless rants on the Internet, and do something creative yourself.

78

MIA is pretty amazing in my opinion. She's one of the few females(or people in general actually) in this ever growing genre of electro music to have a strong Political feed, not to mention she is a producer, visual artist, fantastic performer. And she treats her fans damn well… sounds to me she's more on top than most of these performers that are mainstream. and big up to her for not settling for censorship.
Shay says – reply to this

79

also; her song is talking about money and drugs,and the politics and business that exist thereof. i probably shouldn't be amazed by the stupidity of the general population; yet somehow I still try to maintain some faith in humanity.

Everyone needs to relax and appreciate what she's doing for music and humanity.

Talent is rare and precious.

I honestly feel like my IQ has dropped from wasting my time to listen to this song. . . .the lyrics are stupid, and while the sound is not that bad, it in no way makes up for the horrendous lyrics

wow i'm amazed at how absolutely dumb and unwordly a large percentage of people here are, but sadly not suprised. Precisely why Hannah Montana is the #1 female entertainer of the year. I'm glad MIA is getting hated on by these fucking pop fan losers, that leaves her out of the "mainstream" and available for all people who legitimately enjoy innovative music. Would that whore Rihanna even consider sampling the Clash? does she know who they are? Would Beastie ever make a cameo in any of these other dumb, base level, commercialized glorified prostitutes' videos? Fuck society, you know nothing, please continue to bask in your overwhelming ignorance for my further entertainment.

Trendy, hipster bullshit. This sounds like UB40's Red Red Wine from 20 years ago. Welcome to the past…SOOOO cutting edge!
Nobody will remembe her in 5 years except the douchebags who are still wearing played out 80s gear.

to all that just don't like her music and feel like calling it crap, listen and think about the lyrics. Every song she writes has meaning that apparently you can't find. With Paper Planes she is mocking popular musicians that are based in stereo types and uses a "gangster" image to sell records. Try to listen to something rather than regurgitating crap and being a mindless consumer.
not original... says – reply to this

97

I don't know why they censored her!? Everyone needs to listen to this great example of crap. She's a pioneer, a fighter for human rights, America sucks, blah blah blah. M.I.A. should go to Darfur or Bosnia to change the world. We have enough untalented do gooders here, singing for a "cause."

Criss Angel Is Recorded Threatening To Knock Out His Producer!

Whoa! Criss Angel is NOT messing around here!

The Luxor headlining illusionist was recorded having quite the verbal altercation with Joe Monti, one of his magic producers on Wednesday, during which Angel is heard threatening to knock him out - and now he's had a police report filed against him!

Give it a listen (above)!

Furthermore, Monti later said to authorities that he recorded the meeting because Angel has a history of bullying employees!

He explains:

“I wanted him to know how demeaning he was. I created 50-60 percent of the magic for ‘Mindfreak.' I have no reason to do anything vindictively but I draw the line on violence.”

Scary!

Violence is never the answer, folks!
