M.I.A Paper airplanes

[Finestizpro]

<3



[lianaanagrama]

all we wanna do... and a... and listen more songs like this!

sticks and stones and weed and bombs.

[DASfilms]

I Personally Think this is her only good song, the other songs are crap, she needs to make more music like this, she has a great flow, and i think she knows what she is doing, but some tunes are just bad, if she keeps rollin like in this song, damm im sure shes gonna be big someday, and its true you'll love this song while your high x)

[nQQdles]

haha shes wearing a metallica shirt yay!

[nQQdles]

i fucking love it

[SeanTMonty]

lol at 0:19 thats the perfect time for "at&t raising the bars"

[spicyiceygirl]

i love this song

[itsyoboydj]

this shit so raw

[xxfinisherxx]

First of all MIA is hellaaaa hot. Second, if you dont like the song now just listen to it while your high and you'll love it.

[newnrg]

Ha ha

[imboardproductions]

I love this song, but the lyrics r weird!!

[TurboSpaghettiRobot]

I guess this girl is Sri Lankan so maybe the song is about how the Tamils and Sri Lankans have been butchering each other nonstop for 36 years.

[kamrynbrown]

i love this song but this is the only song i know of hers

[1001001001001005]

The beat to this song is "straight to hell" by the clash, They just repeated the begining of the song about 50 times.

[AbsolutionDouble0]

Eh, fun song, but it's essentially a giant chorus. The chorus of the song itself is great, but it would've been better served with something a little more...thoughtful than more heavy repetition.

[agavent2]

who the fuck are you?

[AbsolutionDouble0]

Who I am is irrelevant. Whether or not I am right is relevant, and you'd be hard pressed to tell me that this doesn't have a lot of simple repetition in it. Don't get me wrong, it's a fun song, but there is nothing substantive about it.

[SebastianCova]

Agree with you, it's not a masterpiece. But stop talking like you're a genius: You're just saying what everybody knows about the song.

[AbsolutionDouble0]

Oh! I got CAUGHT. Nicely done, sir. Thank you for keeping my ego in check.

[SebastianCova]

Take care lol

[agavent2]

take it easy man... right and wrong is subjective, and I wasnt being serious. I agree with you that its repetitious music. But as simple as the rhythm of song is, there is a lout outside and beyond it. What makes this song good is more than the ease of snapping your fingers to it. It has a powerful effect when you listen to it, M.I.A creates music with so much character and subtleties that only come from original artists.

[AbsolutionDouble0]

...no.

[xXShortEmoKidXx]

True, very repetitive, but still, this is a good song. I can never get sick of it.

[TwistinFool]

ignorant faggot

[Sk8terChick1020]

DUDE THIS SONG ROX

[WannaBeRayAllen]

I swear i thought it was a boy singing when i first heard this song. im like "is this the dude that does the chorus in swagger like us?!?!?"

[SDMMOSO]

sick song...finally see the video after so many other versions.

[Hotdogpot]

This song always makes me want to do a hit! I just love it!

[Thingsfallingapart77]

[jeffhlewis]

Joe Strummer is rolling in his grave

[ISAxFCKINxRIOS]

yeah, cuz this chick raided Queen Latifah's closet

[zrhinier]

Digital Underground is back!

[thedeadbaby]

wait so it sounds like all she wants to do is rob 7 eleven?

[MadPutz]

she's joking, its commentary on how kids become criminals

[shizznettube]

Actually it's a sarcastic criticism of how natural born britains view immigrants.

[UmbWesker]

haha, yeah that's what I was thinking too.

[mulattomack]

its paper planes not paper air planes

[conrad2468]

SUCKED!!!! but i do enjoy the synchronized gun shots

[ISAxFCKINxRIOS]

i know, right? them is some synchronized gangstas

[kylehero12]

i can't understand her but still a good song

[greyhawk000]

cool song."everyones a winna makin our fame..."

[actionjacksonsg]

wow

[Cutey1900]

What kind of accent is that?

[Jbone85]

Sri Lanka girl

[zoeyxbaby101]

this song is so annoying, yet addicting :o

[DemonGaaraV21]

belive it or not shes indie and mexican and a little fo british

[chicken5soup]

Lol I think we figured out the indian part when you first see her.

[billabongindustries]

so ownage

also it in slumdogmillionaire

[omnipotentidiot]

she has a fake accent, just like Ali G.

[lnWant]

People keep telling me she's indie. As far as being independent goes, she could be considered that if she isn't with I record label: I personally don't know if she is. However, as far as indie as a genre goes, I can't see it.

Indie rap, maybe. Straight up, classic, surreal, feel-good indie? Not on your life.

[pjakeball]

i agree she woulfd be hot without the coat thing

[Mosin54r]

naw...she's pretty ...its just the dress, but if u pimped out her outfits shes hot....she has a pretty face..its just the video

[roxfan11]

this song was in slumdog millionaire

[Mosin54r]

Maybe im not seeing it and im curious...whats the "creepy" part? Im not being belligerent I just want to hear the opinion.

[linkisnazi]

woah thats creepy

[Mosin54r]

Actually, I think she's HOT. The song is a good blend of rap and street hip-hop(my definition) . I havent seen the movie yet

[range4luv2]

U need a pair of glasses shes pretty but shes not ''mother fucking hot''

[JordanWC]

[hellboy1976]

I like The Clash beat she borrowed.

[starsnuffer]

She's Sri Lankan

[Crispyc00kies]

[ClocktowerGuardian]

[honeybflyy21282]

No. She was born in the UK but moved to Sri Lanka when she was a young girl. Then she moved back to the UK. Her parents are Sri Lankan.

[WidowMaAKeR]

[Corlidath]

Its about being like a total gangbanger. She pretty much says she is illegal however if you find her at the boarder she will have fraud visas with her name on them. She also talks about selling illegal stuff like drugs and all. Sorry to sound all formal there lawl

[avyl510]

this song is about how people worship money instead of god. its reflective of the system that dominates us all.

[xavoc]

She's English by birth actually. Ethnically she's Tamil from Sri Lanka.

It just depends on whether you're looking at her place of birth or ethnic background to determine ethnicity.
