… and tres good. I really love his work and only now did I realize that his song about dictators over the years does not begin "She's so POPular." But it really worked for me. He goes on to say, "she's a knock out," big music, "if looks could kill, they probably will," yadda, yadda, yadda. How is this song not about the trials and tribulations of widening your perceived I.Q. equity as a young, pretty woman in today's primary school. Trying to play games without frontiers, but the continual whistling by Mr. Gabriel or shall we say "the man," belittling the games as silly causing goons to piss in the jungle only because nothing else seemed to rhyme with baboon except goon. Dictator? I think not. This is a song about a little girl's quest who is albatrossed by her popularity and good looks. This could very well be a shout out to the
Hillarys,
George Eliots and
Vigdís Finnbogadóttirs of the world. You go girls! Hoot. Hoot.
