Side-Eye (n.): (pronounced “sahyd-ahy”)
Origin: Black People
1. A look given to one when peers disapprove of a choice, idea, or action.
“ Everyone gave Mike the side-eye for playing Kurt Franklin at the party.”
----- (v.)
1. A disrespectful glance at one as to disregard ones wishes, rules, idea, or request.
“Hey man, your boy got one more time to side-eye me before he get knocked out.”
So you ever had a song that you love and sing/rap with the windows down that just didn’t fit into your Ipod’s usual playlist? No, well this happens to me on the regular and after talking to some of my friends about it, I have amassed a list of the most unusual songs that I listen to and love that my friends give me the side-eye for. But let it be known, I don’t care if you give me the side-eye. F*ck is you to judge? These songs are hot. In descending order, they go something like this:
10. Red Hot Chili Peppers – Other Side
I don’t know why but most of the people I know don’t get down with the Chili Peppers. Any group that has the balls to perform with socks on their man members and move around is okay with me. And I’ve had way too many girls to ever || pause || that last statement. They literally just had socks strategically placed!
9. Hootie and the Blowfish – Only Want To Be With You
If dolphins don’t make you cry too, you have no soul. Period. Well, at least the ones aren’t racist.
8. *Three Way Paradise City
7. Journey – Don’t Stop Believing
It happens every time I go out to the bar with my melanine deficient brethren. That song comes on and the place erupts and everyone is friends for 5 minutes.
6. Phil Collins – In the Air Tonight
If this song doesn’t get you pumped before a game or something that you’re going against an opponent, you have no competitive spirit and you mind as well quite before you start.
5. Green Day – When I Come Around
4. *Tie* Aerosmith – Crying / Shut Up and Dance
Aerosmith is the shit. If you saw the Wayne ’s World where Wayne Wayne
3. *Tie* No Doubt – Spider Web / Don’t Speak
I love Gwen Stefani. These songs were B-A-N-A-N-A-S. Don’t judge me. And if you do, f*ck you. Just because you’d rather to listen to Shaq’s “Twism” doesn’t make you better than me.
2. The Outfield – Your Love
Listen to it. It’s a great song.
1. The Verve – Bittersweet Symphony
I used to wake up to this song every morning in high school. It wasn’t intentional. I would just have Mtv on while I got ready for school and this song would be on religiously. At first, I was like anybody else. I would always say, “F*ck is this? They play this song every morning.” After like two weeks of it coming on continuously every morning and actually listening to the lyrics, I was hooked. And the video was dope too. Dude just walks down the street and it’s like the world is ending. Think Xzibit’s “What You See Is What You Get” but in San Francisco
Honorable Mention-
Will Ferrell (ft. Lil ’ Wayne
Funniest song that I refuse to get out of my head. When Will Ferrell quits acting, he should come out with one of these gems every 4 months with another rap artist just to make me laugh.
Smashing Pumpkins – Tonight
Tom Petty – Free Fallin’
I don’t think they’re that bad but I seem to get the side-eye from my people when I sing them. Though I respect their opinion and view, they can kick a whole half of a boulder with no socks. The songs are amazing and I shall continue to listen to them. What about ya’ll? What songs do you get the side-eye for singing from friends?
Captain B out.
Look up and Look Out.
