... that I would be quite happy to go for the rest of my life without hearing another RnB artist urging me to throw my hands in the air ... like I just don't care.
What does it even mean to "throw your hands in the air like you just don't care"? I would have thought the height of not caring would be to just sit with your hands lifelessly by your sides with a glazed expression on your face.
Not that I'm an expert or anything, but I think the oft-used invitation is to throw your hands in the air... like you just dont care about societal conventions which dictate that throwing one's hands in the air is indecorous.
In other words, throw your hands in the air and stick it to The Man.

I may have missed this Brit, who ?
Yeah, clearly "Word Up!" was the pinnacle of that and it's all been downhill ever since.
I dunno, Malty, some RnB geezer being played in the gym tonight. But it's a general point.
(By RnB I mean, you know, black American music, not rhythm & blues as in Joe Brown and his Bruvvers and their Skiffle Board and their Dog.)
Joe used to have a brilliant hairdo, I used to emulate it, worked a treat, also quite hygienic. Crap music though.

Yeah but that doesn't rhyme, Stephen.

It provides irrefutable proof that the hand thrower does not know from a non sequitor.

Um, it means to dance around joyously without feeling self-conscious about it. Hence its alien nature.
