I’m back, and the best way to come back is to come back unexpectedly, which is just how this track hits us. For a hit single, it has a strange opening, hooking you in almost subconsciously, and then hitting you full force with glam splendor. Its driving rhythm is accented with brass bursts and Eno squibs, and just as you’re getting the hang of it, it ends abruptly. Such is the visitation of a Catbirdman ejaculation. This particular outburst is our the third installment of the linear progression from the Velvet Underground to Duran Duran. It’s Roxy Music’s “Virginia Plain,” and there’s nothing quite like it. Enjoy. More later.
