Trashy Thursdays will be happening every Thursday (duh) and will feature the trashy pop songs I kinda love. Don't get it twisted, I think pop music is an art form. But like all art, there are brilliant artistic works that are fresh and dynamic and new as well as less inspired pieces of art. Sometimes those less inspired bits are as much fun as the "good" stuff, that's why we're getting trashy!
Remember when Cascada came out of nowhere (actually, Germany) to take over pop radio with the trashiest euro-pop single ever? "Everytime We Touch" was the slickest, most synthetic and crazy-dancable single to hit the airwaves in 2006. The band squeezed out another hit, a cover of country ballad "What Hurts The Most", in 2008.
Now they are back with another bit of trash for the disco ducks in the clubs. "Evacuate The Dancefloor" is the title track of their recent release and it rips off the beat, style and melodic sequence of Lady Gaga's "Just Dance" so perfectly I could swear that a copyright claim should have been filed. The only reason I don't hate it? Because the chorus is catchy as fuck!
After a few listens I find myself randomly singing out "Evacuate The Dancefloor!" at inappropriate times. Also, "stop, this beat is killing me!" You'd think I was being murdered by club kids after an ElectroQueer show.

LOL to INFINITY! OMG, Paul, my bestie and I joke every time we hear this on the radio that we're gonna call the police. Clearly "the beat" is slowly murdering this poor girl and there's nothing anyone can do about it.
Poor thing is literally infected... BY THE SOUND! LOL! But for reals, we listen every single time it comes on!
Between this song and "Fire Burning" I've learned that clubs are the most dangerous place to be...
