Chtonic Fatigue Syndrome
Just checking I wasn't the earnest lamb among the irony wolves (too tired for a more original metaphor).
Never heard a Quincy Jones' production I didn't like, and those 80s Ashford and Simpson hits (Solid etc.)...fucking hell, perfect poise between dancefloor and yacht-deck.
But "Caribbean Queen"...well, I'm sure someone more blog-minded than me could spin those lyrics out into a heartfelt refusal of yuppie selfishness and conquest sexuality (no more love on the run....), and the "African Queen" version probably has some nice racial implications you could run with.
Get on it, blogosphere!
