Murder most FLUX!
Sister Sledge “Pretty Baby” last night i had a dream about what i would post to fluxblog today, and it was so much more interesting than what i had planned! it would be difficult, and probably a little boring, to describe the dream in its entirety, so let’s just say it involved a string of terrible, brutal murders, and that i was somehow searching for clues in the fluxblog comment boxes. it was actually a little upsetting, which is why i present you with this song, a glorious disco-pop number, chic-produced, which is not upsetting at all. in fact, this song is so explosively upbeat (musically, maybe not so much lyrically) that i once used it to psyche myself up before doing something particularly nerve-wracking. i’ll leave you to guess what that was.
Arabesque “Someone Is Waiting for You” now this is a song so spectacularly chipper it makes “pretty baby” look like a diamanda galas number. (again, musically, not so much lyrically.) anyway, it’s so sweeping, so just HUGE-feeling, i feel like it should be used in some big glamourous montage sequence in a movie set in a big city, where the heroine is experiencing some marvellous moments of great personal triumph. i hope you like it.
love, your friendly neighbourhood s10cki
