Weird pop culture synchronicity
Oct. 24th, 2012 02:42 pmAs those of you who read my FB will already be aware, I'm loving the hell out of the new Pink album. Yes, really. I've always had a soft spot for her, and I think the new album is the best she's done. In a segment of the music industry more guilty than most of women just being ornamentation, she's a strong woman who writes and performs her own material.
I've been home with flu for the last few days. Normally, channel hopping is not something I do - I only watch TV to watch specific things and I never have it on in the background. But I have a 15 second attention span when I'm sick, so I've been flipping through All The Cable TV.
In a bizarre bit of synchronicity, yesterday I caught the last minute or so of Pink's Blow Me One Last Kiss. Which works much less well than the "explicit version" - changing "I had a shit day" (granted, my favourite thing about that song) to "I had a (pause) day" just doesn't work. Should have gone back into the studio to do a radio-friendly edit with "I had a bad day" or something.
Today I caught the whole video for "Try". It's very pretty. And I noticed a couple of things about Pink that I hadn't clocked before. She does some really impressive dance/acrobatic moves in this video, which made me notice that she's a well-muscled woman, absolutely not a size-zero twig. She also has interesting angular facial features, and amazing cheekbones. So there's hope for me if I can get my body fat to a low enough percentage, that I can see my cheekbones again and still have abs of steel.
So, um. I don't think I have a point, just something I noticed.
