Headlines you don't want to see the morning after yr office party: ELTON JOHN'S STAG NIGHT - PICTURES.

Anyway here's Klymaxx - "Meeting In The Ladies Room". This song is totally amazing. It begins with a woman saying "I had to leave my condo - to come to THIS" and then continues with her RAGE at the hussies who have been eyeing up her man. "I've had to become a B.W. - a BASIC WOMAN" - so it's off to THE LADIES ROOM to sort them out. OR IS IT? Because then the rest of the song seems to be about going to the ladies room so as to look even better for yr man. And then one of the verses appears to be sung by one of the women who is CHASING the man. And also let's face it a song about "powdering your nose" before you get out on the floor has plenty of subtext going on. This is the joy of being a big group, you can represent all sides of a situation in a single track!
