Wait MIA didn't do Lady Marmalade.  Hell she wasn't even on the scene then.

Ironbite-only thing of MIA's I know is Airplanes.

Don't tell me there are two pop singers with the same fucking stage name, within 10 years of each other.  I honestly believed that this was the same singer.

It's like the music industry wants people to be confused.  At least Covenant and Kovenant are different genres.

Uh...L?  M.I.A. and Mya.  Not even close to the same stage name.

Ironbite-cept for the first letter.

Weird. When I saw this:



I thought of this:



Clearly, this means that She-Ra is Satanic.

They're pronounced the same.

Really?  Cause I pronounce Mya like a name and I pronounce M.I.A. as individual letters.

Ironbite-interesting turn of phrase.

Yeah, are those periods, which tend to denote pronounced-by-letter abbreviation, purely decorative, then?

She's a singer.  It's practically required for her to have some weird spelling- or punctuation-related quirk.  Like Ludacriss.

But the weird spelling is usually at least phonetic.

And M.I.A. is a fairly well known abbreviation pronounced by letter to begin with. So so insisting on pronouncing it like Mya will just confuse people who are more accustomed to discussing people who are “Missing in Action.”

I wish people got this fired up about real issues...ones that actually DO affect children across the country. Like hunger, or abuse...
