Just so you shouldn't think I only like synth-heavy, lyrically penetrating and smart sexually ambiguous (if not sexually repressed) mope-pop that treats women as people with whom to do anything but "do it till you're satisfied"...
I love this song, this album, and to a lesser extent this band. I consider them techno-pop at least as much as rock (no synths, but dig that slick, polished production), but I love them.
And it's not a pleasure I feel particuarly guilty about. They're stupid, they're fun and they're most definitely boys.
By the way, I haven't been able to get the hot blonde in the striped shirt who appears around the 4.05 mark in this video out of my head for almost 20 years. It's not because I want to discuss feminist theory with her.
It's because she symbolizes, in one split-second shot, the reason why every band was ever formed ever.
