Soul Stirrin' Soul
What is it about Jimmy Soul and his insulting treatise against women that makes my heart soar? Well, first of all it is the sheer joy and frenzy of dance this song inspires. It makes no apologies, and deep within the subtext of the lyrics, we find that Jimmy rejects the media-driven status quo and longs for unbridled mirth and companionship. He doesn't need Angelina Jolie to be happy. Nor does he require the beguiling skills of Reese Witherspoon. He craves a simple gal who laughs from the belly and engages in earthy heartfelt passion. It is for this reason that I have chosen this song as my wake-up tune of the week. I suggest we all do this and reflect.

But I DO need Angelina Jolie and Reese Witherspoon. Where does that leave me?
ReplyDeleteI understand. I need them too. In fact, I think they exist because women need them more than men do. After all, who's buying all of those "lady's" and tabloid journals? Women, that's who. But to answer your question: That leaves you in the 50th percentile. Half the women of the world are not able to leave well enough alone.
