This is a mix from a paper I wrote in my Popular Music History class this year...what you hear may shock you...it gets progressively worse. And I KNOW there are some repeat artists here, but I was focusing on a theme...

how is 'wouldn't it be nice' misogynistic?

well, it's my example of veiled misogyny...ie. "let's get married so we can have sex, so i can be in charge...". i know it's a strech, but it's such a fun tune ;)

i've always detested 'just like a woman' for just this reason. anyway, nice concept mix.
