great post! though i think ke$ha wants a SLUMBER party in her basement (but a summer party could be fun too...?)

I'm always interested to hear what you think of music today, seeing as how you always have a unique way of looking at modern pop.


Plus, any review that mentions Debbie Deb is automatically good in my book.

What? As a 'European' (shudder, I am Irish nothing to do with any other european country) I find this post really strange.

When I lived in America all I heard was r'n'b and hip hop, and all the songs said were "in da club with shawty" and in clubs all people did was grind up against each other.

I fail to see how an American's idea of dance music (which is actually just uptempo pop music that sounds kind of electro) makes dance music dumb.

I am so confused, maybe I need to read this entry again? I think its better for pop music to be about dancing than to be another generic indie-rock/r'n'b love/lust song. Because thats why we like pop music - to dance to!

It's always interesting to hear your take on the state(states?) of pop music.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on Janelle Monae if you feel like ruminating at any point on her whole crazy James-Brown-meets-android-opera trip.

Rich, I'm always in awe of how you're able to take an opinion (that I share) and articulate it so well. I mean... writing is what you DO, so I shouldn't really be in awe

but just... ugh i love your fucking mind lol

this post reminded me of a few 90s dance favourites I had almost forgotten about

Ohmygod - don't diss Gypsey Woman, that track is magic - Dj Sneak spun the unadorned orginal during his birthday set @ Boa in Toronto a few years ago. I saw God.

As always, I love your exhaustive knowledge of all things dance, R&B and disco, but one correction: It was "Le Freak" and not "Good Times" that was written about Studio 54.

Upon being denied entry into the club, Nile Rodgers went home and wrote a song about the experience which included the hook "Fuck off", which was then turned into the more radio-friendly "Freak out".

BOBO

I am not sure if people are aware of this but just wanted to gently point out that Brooke Shields unlike most actresses in Hollywood actually went to an Ivy league college (Princeton Univ.) and graduated. We have to give her some credit for this especially nowadays where most young actors are busy getting wasted every night.do u ever heard about “` s ug ar“dad dy“hu nt***{cOOoOOm}?the best place to get a sugarbaby or sugardaddy.i strong advise u singles go to have a look.

In the decade captured by the photos - the 1960s - the Hashemite monarchy was newly overthrown, there were two military coups and then the advent of the Arab Socialist Baath Party in 1968.
