That was certainly... different. I appreciate it when people go out of their "comfort zone" and try something completely different, something that could go horribly wrong instead of what they always do and what they know will work. However, the style of music in this song is not entirely my cup of tea, and the video (which, of course, is incredibly sexy, and I'm sure most people will agree with me on that) is a bit weird. Even more than in most songs, the whole thing was very cryptic, and I didn't get the message at all - but I don't know the game, so that may have something to do with it. But, again, I appreciate the fact that this is something completely different from all the previous songs, and I'd love to hear some more "experiments"; while I may not like every single song, I'm always looking forward to listening to the latest one every week.
Well, after reading your blog entry I think I understand the message now, and it even makes perfect sense to me. I don't get why you keep mentioning "armpit hair" though, I don't see how the fact whether someone has hair in their armpits is significant in any way. Also, I don't get the argument that it's "natural". Of course it is, but just because something is natural doesn't necessarily mean it's good - dying from an infected appendix is natural, too, and still most people prefer having it removed. If people prefer not having armpit hair (or prefer women without it), how is that a bad thing? (I'm not arguing for or against it, all I'm saying is I don't see how it's significant in any way and why people even care about it in the first place)
Anyway, trying to get away from the topic of hair... I think the meaning of many songs, while perfectly understandable after being explained, is much too hidden, even obscure at times. Not sure if that's a bad thing, this way, people are forced to make their own interpretations, however, my first interpretation was "Okay, what the hell is this?"
And another thing: I don't get the banning going on here all the time. I certainly don't agree with Grand_Pamplemou's statement, in fact, it seems like they take their own "reduced" of Rebecca Mayes's videos (i.e. that they are only interesting because she looks good) and claim that this is what everyone sees in them, but that is just not true. Also, Grand_Pamplemou was a bit rude in their post, they could have been more polite, but ultimately, all they did was state their personal opinion, and I really think people shouldn't get "banned" for this, you could even go so far as to say it's borderline censorship.
