R U Kidding Me? (The Facebook Song) – Kate Miller Heidke (Live at the Metro, 7th May)
February 18th, 2010
Kate Miller Heidke performing her newly written song at the Metro on the 7th of May. It's called R U Kidding Me? but I'm sure many would recognise it as the Facebook song too. Very amusing.

All music is open …
All music is open to interpretation, but I don’t think we should assume things about the real story just from the genders in the lyrics. It sounds like she took her ex-boyfriend’s perspective and used it to create a female character who had the same experience, who is in the song.
She did a similar thing in ‘Caught In The Crowd’; apparently ‘James’ was really Kate and the narrator was someone she knew.
Anyway, it’s a great song! So funny.

It is not written …
It is not written from the guy’s perspective to her. I mean, one of the lines is calling him a “nasty, nasty man”.

“You narcissistic arsehole” is quite a neat line too

My sister was going …
My sister was going to go to see her play with Ben Folds with her boyfriend but she couldn’t go that day.. He still went though. This isn’t my taste of music (at all) but I still like this song and there’s no denying how awesome her voice is.
and I think she just gave up thinking of an adjective for the last line so she just said “you fucking fuck” lol

Did you read what …
Did you read what he just said? She said it in a radio interview. I’m sorry not every situation works out the way you like it; making men seem like the bad guys, haha, but if you’re an ignorant bitchy neo-feminist than that’s going to happen. A lot.
Equality power!
BTW, technically she’s not singing for “you girls.” Think about it as long as you like until it clicks.

“Oh you fucking, fuck…” I don’t know why but I think that’s the greatest insult…I know a few people who I could call that! =P haha

Fantastic artist …
Fantastic artist and another great song from KMH. Kate was interviewed on Brisbane Radio (her home town) and said she was the one who sent the friend request to an ex. The song was written from his perspective of having recieved the request.

How do you know it was the other way round? And she tried to add him? I reckon the dude must be feeling pretty stink after her hit song! Girl power! Loving you Katie, keep singing for us girls.

The song was …
The song was actually inspired by her trying to add her ex-boyfriend. He didn’t accept the add. (not the other way around)
