If you haven't already heard 'Real Housewives of New York's' Countess LuAnn de Lessep's new single, 'Money Can't Buy You Class,' now is the time to indulge. The Countess, who recently finalized her divorce from her husband of 16 years, is clearly enjoying this new period in her life -- and what better way to express it than through song.Countess LuAnn tells PEOPLE, "My book ['Class with the Countess'] is about my journey in life and how I learned to be elegant. I translated that into song, so I talk about how money can't buy you class, but elegance can be learned." So what does she think of the final product? "I have fun with it," explains de Lesseps. "It's a very Holly Golightly, runway, glamour-puss kind of song."
Listen to the track after the jump to see how it measures up against fellow Bravo housewife Kim Zolciak's 'Tardy for the Party.' And just remember, "You don't have to be rich or famous to be unforgettable." Words to live by, Countess. Words to live by.

Sounds like she desperately needs a cigarette.
At least "Tardy" has a decent beat and you can kind of ignore the vocals. "Money" as not redeeming qualities.
oh, that is so painful -- no, make that excruciating!

Oh my... The question should be Can Money Buy You a Voice? If so, countless LuAnn should purchase a singing voice pronto! Would anyone actually pay money to hear finger nails scratching a chalk board. LOL.

I use to be a stupid sucker and watch Housewives of NY, I finally woke up. I can't stand any of those trashy tacky women! Time for Bravo to drop all those stupid housewives shows.
Bring back Top Chef!
