I was first turned onto this by my good friend Nathandernal (Nate) Larkin-Connolly on his blog...

My life is now different after hearing it. Rarely do we have an experience so fulfilling on so many levels. The only time I listen to the radio is when I drive with dad. We were going to a Jets game with my little brother so Z100 was on.
Miley Cyrus "Party in the USA" came on.
I never thought this could exist. Jack White, after receiving an award from Dublin, Ireland's prestigious Trinity College, spoke about authenticity. His quotes were taken wildly out of context later on blogs, but essentially what he said was that in some ways he considered Britney Spears more authentic than guys like Bob Dylan. He was not criticizing Dylan in any way, but simply referring to his desire to tell stories not his own. Britney is true to herself, only tells her own story, sings about what she knows and wants to sing about, knows her limits, knows her strengths, and owns them all. She succeeds for those reasons. Just to be safe, I'll make clear that Dylan succeeds because he's as much of a creative genius and student of the human condition as has existed period.
