KEEP YOUNG AND BEAUTIFUL

i believe the great and powerful voice of ANNIE LENNOX sung it best

society as a whole has done their damndest to damn you straight to the
bottomless pits of the self loath'n purgatory flames in Lucifer's relm if you dare escaped yer teenrager years into adulthood ever since the victorian age with every reason imaginable to rid yer complexion of each and every crow scratches that’s marched across yer mug...the music industry is no stranger to bein an unfortunate catalyst to this self imposed catastrophe

with the recent departure of founder and lead singer from the 60's super 
group the RONETTES...RONNIE SPECTOR was the epitome of  the girl group sensation sweep'n the world with hits like "BE MY BABY" among many many others
though i can freely admit i was only introduced to RONNIE when she mashed up her smash hit with the rigid and rough edge vocals of EDDIE MONEY's "TAKE ME HOME TONITE/BE MY BABY" in the 80's...milk'n her youthful fame fer as long as she possibly can
BUTT...that's not all

ever since the early morn'n hrs of august 1st 1981 every hyper gen X'n 
preteen and post teenrager was prepare'n themselves fer a merried of eye issues from cataracts to glaucoma's later on in life thanx to the new way they would and could experience their music when that all important flag was planted on the moon and they knew exactly where they would be at the top of every hour thereafter until the end of the decade...at least
from "PAT"
to "RATT"

we just couldn't get enough of those mini musical movies...it was like 
the new legalized heroine fer a whole new generation and eventually everyone and their neurotic neighbor who was hooked on marinate'n in mayonnaise wanted to make a total A double snakes outta themselves just fer a mere moment of fame so they could tell anyone who would listen to their babble 
as they placed their order with the lonely TCB-Y-R-U HERE counter help...to be apart of the hysteria in the make'n (much like those desperado tiktok'n spatchatters of today) though don'tcha ever wonder whatever happened to those support’n mini muffins after the camera's stopped roll'n and their musical celebrity moved on?

picture it kittens....it's 1986 and everyone was jell-o as H-E-double hockey 
stix (and by everyone i mean MEEEEEEE) when 13 year old UK born cool blue dowey eyed FELIX HOWARD tried gett'n a sneeky peek of one MISS CICCONE 
twirl'n her pendulous taataa's as an exotic dancer in the erotical peep show fantasy "OPEN YOUR HEART" 

don't fret my lil pet...at 49 FELIX still enjoys gloat'n about his brief brush
 with the QUEEN OF THE DANCE FLOOR while roast'n smores on a hot summer nite however this hot follicley challenged daddy didn't move too far from the music biz…FELIX became a successful head in the industry as a VP at A&R and EMI while also penn'n hits fer dearly departed AA reject 
AMY WHINEHOUSE (hey the truth hurts sometimes kittens so learn to redirect yer anger at the issue and not at the fact checker)
SIA...
and the SUGARBABES among many other countless musicians

next up is the lil leprechaun model PETER ROWEN from across the 
pond who grew up on the other side of the street from irish singer BONO of  U2 fame who was friends with PETER's older brother and at 5 was plucked from obscurity to be plastered on the bands album cover "BOY" in 1980 then again at 8 in 1983 fer their "WAR" album then rumors started float'n around in my head that i suspected the EDGE probably got piss drunk one nite in 98 and won a game of canasta with PETER and so the EDGE got to take any old pic he wanted to of PETER to use fer their "GREATEST HITS" album...allegedly!
today PETER is a successful photographer in Ireland and still plays canasta with BONO and the EDGE when the band is back in town...ain't that just swell!

once the 80's decadence of make-up and aqua-net wore out it's welcome
the 90's rolled in with homeless sheik consist'n of worn out jeans...wife beaters...tattered flannel shirts and monthly ritiual bath'n routines to mask the scent of the many new drugs on the market (presumably) and no one pulled it of better than the members that sounded like they gargled lighter fluid of the groggily grunge band NIRVANA with their 2nd album "NEVERMIND" that featured a 4 month old SPENCER ELDEN and his willy wonka swimm'n after some benjamin bait that sold 30 million albums worldwide make'n him a household pedophiliac's dream
though SPENCER has enjoyed years of bragg'n about his notoriety whenever he got the chance to whatever Slovakian street vendor would bother to listen...even recreate'n an updated more PG version fer postcards and non pedophile fans fer many years since there's a rumor goin around in my head that he'd probably plug up the drain at this point were he not wear'n those cut off jeans (hey...an unintentionally internationally unknown perform'n illusionist of their own universe can dream)

well now thanx to the repressed memories of the new woke generation
SPENCER has desperately tried to cash in from his dwindle'n art sales by sue'n the remain'n members of NIRVANA fer undisclosed millions fer the mental anguish and blatant pedophilic dreams that he was unable to consent to at the time unfortunately the courts weren't so kind in SPENCER's favor since he'd marketed and milked himself as the NIRVANA baby fer the past 30 years...
so rumor has it DAVE GROHL still wanted to amend the sticky situation and gave SPENCER the entire NIRVANA collection...some of KURT COBAIN's worn out smoke laced tee's that COURTNEY LOVE gave him after KURT's unfortunate death... 
and some vintage bottles of car wax he stole from KURT's basement...so at least there was somewhat of a happy end'n i heard (SHHH!)
now GET OFF MY DRESS!

X...marks the spot?

we've all had those uncontrollable urges at some point in a relationship
 to make bunny soup...just to get yer utter dismay across...without the other person mince'n yer words into some sorta deciphered dilemma'd ambrosia salad

and trust me when i say...i thought i would neva eva say this...however...
as much as Bunny didn't enjoy mandarin food...nor a mandarin grand baby when she found out Charlotte was goin all intro vitro on her dilapidated ass...i got her point!
as much as i don't enjoy listen'n to raygay music on a caribbean cruise (cuz this is what happens when ya order a deeply discounted cruise vacation on one of those judgmentally judied non heterosexual hook up sites) i also don’t enjoy bein’ abandoned on a deserted caribbean island with a bunch of cock hungry gays try’na catch some rays...due to my abandonment issues

F-I-N-A-L-L-Y after 4 looong ass years...M will be release'n her much
 anticipated 14th studio album "MADAME X" appropriately on june 14th...
though really...it’s her 16th studio album...i don't know why they never include "DICK TRACY" & "EVITA" soundtracks...it’s all M...she recorded em in a studio...& not in some cardboard refrigerator box in some back alley on skid row in LA fer fucks sake
which is incidentally my other god's bday...BOY G
(yes...apparently that's the hip thing to do these days...drop every letter after the 1st in yer name)

return'n back to her roots...literally...i was ecstatic...at least...about 
the cover art with the obviously possible influences of mexicano artiste Frida Kahlo...Dee Sniders "STRANGERLAND" and civil rights american muslin mover and shaker Malcolm X...i was ALL on board...i get it...M's a majestic artiste...M's a freedom fighter...M will not be silenced!
then...yer single dropped!

sadly...after patiently wait'n fer 4 years fer somethin' fresh & ear popp'n
that'd make the neighbors call the cops cuz you played it on repeat fer 8 straight fuck'n hours...while they were try'na enjoy their day off explore'n their "cushioned caves" with the mail man...this was to be thee song fer open'n season of the QUEEN M...that will most likely kick off the summer season of anthems by her (like years past) with press junkets and the occasional tacky talk show performance to keep the fans die'n...til her tour starts later this year...
BUTT instead...

i litterally was like...HMMM...now where in the sam hell did i put that double cd set of  the late great LYNN ANDERSON's greatest hits?
i mean...i know Lynn never promised me a rose garden...but at least she was consistently sing'n about new fresh ways she could fuck you over! (and this was even after perform'n a quick car concert on repeat with my windows rolled down...along the highway at a moderately safe pace of 65 mph)

and i'm sorry to get all Glenn Close on yer supple and awfully mighty high
 alabastered A-double snakes at this point in the game...but i gotta get it out!

bein a life long die hard fan...ever since you told us way back in 1983
"EVERYBODY...get up and do your thing"...i annoyed the live'n fuck outta my sibs...each and every time when you premiered yer latest and greatest beyond brilliant music video at the top of every hour on MTV
when MTV was actually still a music channel that only played ONLY music video's

i've stuck with you and thoroughly enjoyed yer cross controversies
hey...ain't nutt'n wrong with a sinn'n saint...is there?
BUTT....M...
when i heard yer lead single "MEDELLIN" fer the very 1st time...as i was sweat'n my alabastered A-double snakes off from my work-out...i was hunt'n all over my car fer some dramamine...a pillow...and a paint by number of the cd cover....cuz this did not say to me... 
"EVERYBODY...get up and do your thing"...no it did not!
it was more like a song you would hear once the staff had served you yer lime jell-O portion...after you've finished play'n yer 20th game of canasta with the other colostomy bags at Shady Pines...and you needed to get in a lil cardio

Notre Dame may have been on fire...
but this single was not...FER ME!

wait a minute...that was maybe a wee bit insensitive...was that too soon?
whew...thanx M...glad you TOTALLY agree with me

lemme break down the lyrical sense that just seemed to make no sense
to start...that open'n line "one two...one two...one two cha-cha-cha"...it's like you were play'n hop scotch'n with yer finger tips and yer black platinum Am Ex card...at some random vend'n machine in Lisbon...try'n to decide what Portuguese child you wanted to purchase...while David was at soccer practice
then we ended up hear'n way more of  Maluma's columbian spicy voice...than we did of yers...ya might as well been market'n it as "Maluma (feature'n Madonna)"...i'm mean fer real..i wouldn't be mad at that...
yer always will'n to help out the flailing careers of many from PRINCE to RICKY MARTIN and MR KANKERSOREDASHIAN to name a few
"MEDELLIN" makes "SPANISH LESSONS" sound like a #1 grammy award winner
this song just didn't do it fer me...like every one of yer other leads off of every one of yer albums you've give'n us since the very the beginn'n...
we were all "LIVING FOR LOVE"
we ja-dored that you "HUNG UP"on us
but where's the "MUSIC"?

this...as a lead...frankly lacked that la-da-da that most of us expected 
and by us...I MEAN MEEEEE...though i'm sure it'll grow on me...
like some beautiful fungus...once i hear the 1000 dance remixes by every available dj die'n to remix it fer the dance floor...cuz i have zero plans of ever abandone'n you M...
just let me make this KRYSTAL KLEER right here!

i'm still gonna camp out over nite so i can be the 1st one to purchase yer album...when Circuit City opens up...after all that i've invested into you to...
help feed yer kids over the years...oh look...i found my fav one

in conclusion...i wanna end this review on a completely positive note...
and i'm completely positive...that M picked this patch up at the Sotherby's auction
of the late great Pete Burns left over memorabilia from a couple years back...though i'm sure he's spinn'n around like a record that someone's gett'n some use outta it at least
now get off my dress!

****UPDATE***

the video just premiered...and now it all makes sense to me
though i'm still stick'n to the fact that this is not the strongest album opener...but watch it here and revel in her alabastered self!
