Pop has been SO BAD recently, that I...

...have been listening to Neil Young.

Does anyone have a more shameful confession?

don't want to go on about this, but that cleverness falls flat when you realise that that was alread in the original. it's like when someone makes a joke, and someone else explains it.

I don't think it was in the original! At least, not the same sort of humour. There's the feminist agle to Tori's which is hard to ignore.

It seems to me that if you have to pay that close attention (ie., follow all the lyrics), isn't that by definition working too hard?

how is "following the lyrics which, given that the piece in question is spoken word, are RIGHT THERE" remotely hard work?!
