Just yesterday, we discussed how Ke$ha’s Sandy Hook “apology” hurt more than it helped. Today, the singer tweeted a blog post about “setting the record straight.” Turns out she wasn’t really forced to sing “Die Young,” but she had reservations about the lyrics:
“After such a tragic event I was feeling a lot of emotion and sadness when I said I was forced to sing some of the lyrics to “Die Young.” Forced is not the right word. I did have some concerns about the phrase “die young” in the chorus when we were writing the lyrics especially because so many of my fans are young and that’s one reason why I wrote so many versions of this song. But the point of the song is the importance of living every day to the fullest and staying young at heart, and these are things I truly believe.” [via ABC]
