How To Survive The Reagan Era...



(...without really trying?) Add one part Chomsky, one part punk, and blend together with one part stupid cheesy John Hughes Pretty In Pink movie (for us young ones) then dye your hair, paint your face, look at art, and dance your ass off to Bowie while Rambo blows every one's heads off. I'm still angry, does it show? Oh well...gets me to the church on time. That's Modern Love for ya. Bowie had been diamond dog, so androgynous, so all over the place, but NEVER had I seen him so manic and insane as he was busting out stomp tunes in a skinny-tie 80's suit and hair do. This is one of my favorite songs of all time. It's angry and awesome. Either you get it, or you don't.
