If It Ain't Broke...


Annie Lennox circa Eurythmics was hot as fuck.
I think her voice and those songs were the first time I actually felt lust.  Even before I saw her face, I just knew she was a force.   In my memory it is night time.  The raindrops sweeping across the backseat window of my mom's Datsun hatchback are illuminated neon lightning white by streetlights and my stomach muscles tighten into a cold coil at the sound of that sultry frictioned intro.  

Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams

Remember Datsuns?  They went the way of cassette tapes.

  1. First album I ever bought.

    What's a cassette tape though?

  2. I think my first music purchases were singles: Madonna and Cher, like a good self respecting teeny bopper girl.

    Cassette tapes darling are how young modern lovers would pen love/hate poems.
