The late Godfather of Soul may have proclaimed that "this is a man's world," but Black Beauty (no other name given) has her own ideas about her place in the social hierarchy...
...and woe betide anyone who stands in the way of this belle dame sans merci...
The Tubes - She's a Beauty (from Outside Inside, 1983) - Given a choice, I'd rather have "White Punks on Dope" or "Talk to Ya Later," but I have to go where the theme leads me.
Ladytron - Beauty (from Witching Hour, 2005) - It certainly is. Hell, the whole damn album is as close to sublime perfection as one gets in this blighted age of ours.
(Rockin' those pugilistic beats, week after blessed week.)

There’s nothing that can be said to ease the pain or make stuff like this ever completely make sense. But from reading your words over the past 6 months I know that you know that. So let me just say that my thoughts are with you.
Oh crap! Wrong comment box. Oh well, the sentiment isn't any less significant because of it. Sometimes in life we all use the wrong comment box -- or, that's my story right now...
...and it's completely in the spirit of everything this blog is about. Or not. Depending on what day of the week it is and how many sparrows are in my backyard at the moment.
So, no problem, and thanks.
