mesdames et messieurs, please return to your cubicles
A few people, confronted with a stack of CDs, have taken this one because
of the name. Whoops. This isn't about romance, it's about high school. I
used to live for Sunday night, when MTV ran its "alternative" program
120 Minutes; it was a fabulous and confounding combination of
combat-boot canon, disoriented singer-songwriters, marketing misfires,
veiled queerness, and nobody's-watching-anyway curveballs. (We, of course,
gave any video bequeathed to us by Dave Kendall the benefit of the doubt,
which is how I ended up with four CDs by Carter The Unstoppable Sex
Machine, but anyway.)
This is my best impression of that.
