M.I.A Paper Airplanes I Love This Friggin' Song

Here's a song by M.I.A. called Paper Airplanes that's been out for a while. It's used in Slumdog Millionaire. You know, the movie I was telling you to see. Never has the combination of a cash register and a gun been used in a song so effectively. Well, it's was pretty cool in Pink Floyd's "Money" but there was no gun.

And did you know that this song sampled "Straight to Hell" by the Clash. It's true. Click on that link and see.

Let me know if you like it. I'm not crazy about the video but the song is really cool. Like me.

  10. I started liking this song when I went to a bachelorette party for a friend of mine a few months ago and we went to burlesque show where the chic did a strip tease/belly dance to this song.

    Stuck in my head ever since.

  11. " Paper Airplanes " is a freaking ace song - its kind of mellow, but completely danceable. Plus, M.I.A has some serious sass!

  19. Big fan of M.I.A. - her music is very interesting. Perhaps you should check out the whole album Kala? Or her old one Arular? Nah, you will probably like Kala better.
