We Break Up Cos You Make Up

Junesex “Gets Close To Mine” – I don’t know very much about Junesex given that most everything written about them on the web is in French, and when I have Google translate the articles and blurbs that I can find, I end up with loopy prose like this: Impossible to locate this pop-electro-glam-house-metal which arrives to me here between the ears but in all the cases, that largely exceeds Peaches and Co. Junesex is a French group for, everyone, all the desires, all the sexual, food or commercial désirs/délires. Between girls, between boys, girl and boy or even with S everywhere. It is a gigantic sound, sexual orgy and without any taboo, which resounds. In other words, Junesex play stark, airy house music with selfconciously sexy vocals of the Electroclash persuasion.

Lynsey De Paul “Getting A Drag” – Lynsey De Paul was one of the first female singer/songwriters to achieve success in the UK, writing hits for several artists as well as a string of chart hits for herself in the early 70s. “Getting A Drag,” a pop song about effeminate glam boys which is as snarky as it is catchy, was the follow-up to her biggest hit “Sugar Me,” but was only a modest chart success in spite of being TOTALLY PERFECT IN EVERY POSSIBLE WAY.
