Paper Planes

I'm sorry but it takes no talent to sound like this. This song is TERRIBLE.

Her voice is annoying.

1 star.

A very catchy song gets a new lease on life thanks to a new remix (also available for download). The song is the third single from the album "Kala" by M.I.A., a British singer/songwriter/artist of Sri Lankan descent.

The track samples "Straight to Hell" by The Clash, and the chorus features distinctive gunshots and the sound of a cash register, with background vocals by a children's choir.

"All I wanna do is (BANG BANG BANG BANG!)
And (KKKAAAA CHING!)
And take your money"

The song provides social commentary on immigrants from third world countries, and the popular misconceptions of the lives they lead.

Her accent may be a little hard to decipher at first, but after a few listens it gets easier. The chorus of this song is the hook that's gonna get your line and sinker. Try it for something a little different.

I heard this song in a bar a long time ago and loved it. I could never figure out who it was until MIA started getting popular. This song is fantastic.

I understand this song is supposed to be all political and deep and whatnot, but her voice and the sound of this song altogether makes me want to stick a screwdriver into my eardrum so that I never have to listen to one second of this song ever again for as long as I live. I'm very diverse in my music tastes but I HATE this song, I really think this is the worst song ever to be released in the history of time.
