Comment:

Another "Less Is The New Black" presentation, featuring the Three Es - economical, effective and efficient. Smug complacency and self-indulgence have been outlawed!

The alert may detect a loose theme here. But there's no agenda. Just a short sharp shock of dem fine music.

I think Repetition would also be a good opener. Like the Dusty Springfield, and if in the mood She Bop is fun. I would normally say something about the Britney, but I inadverdently stepped on a toe or two last night. I learned that if I haven't listened to the song, regardless of the artist, I am in no position to judge. I'm just saying I'm skeptical is all.

Oh, you're right to be sceptical. Unless you consider the context and placement. The Britney song is the fourth in a row about masturbation - which is pleasing to me given her role in inspiring that act, and in that it sets up the Mambo Taxi song perfectly.

Are all these songs about masterbation, and I just didn't realize?
