I loved her comeback single before this song - it's not a great song either, but it's pure pleasure to listen to her sing it. I think she's one of the smartest women in show business, too. She's a millionaire from smart business investments, and she was a really astute coach on Idol a few years back. Let's have some Lulu love in the room. :) The song may be crap, but Lulu can sing the hell out of anything!

I half expected to hear "C'est la vie, say the old folks..." at the end of a couplet. Listening to it now, though, I'm startled about how thoroughly it rips off Chuck Berry's “You Never Can Tell”.

Sort of. How on earth have I never heard "Lead a Double Life" before?(maybe because it only reached #68 when I was in 5th grade and hasnt been spun since?)

L'Trimm. Didn't we cover JJ Fad last month?

That's all I got…. Madness next week? And Madonna, if all her songs didn't breach the top 40? Oh god…dare I say…MECO? *shudder*
