Another half-hour shift. Pour out some jelly beans, cram a pack of creme eggs into your cheeks, and marinate on the lesson as taught by the peanut butter jar and the chocolate bunny: consent is key.
"Party"--Ronnie Spector leathered out, is it a shock? No, it's sugar cubes in a sock. Shonen Knife turned My Bloody Valentine into a 60s girl group, please don't not invite 'em to the shindig.
"Dizzy"--Ice cream cones pointing out of the toaster! Let's go beat cinnamon buns together! Have good fun with a food gun!
"Sweet Candy Power"--Nineteen albums in thirty-eight years, the fake-out ballad is by now honed and gleaming. Peppermint Butler betta have my honey.
"My Independent Country"--Lightly-fried politics. In the nascent days of the Knife, the Yamano sisters used to sneak out of their house to play gigs. Your favorite punk band are in fact calves.
"Wave Rock"--Make the 2021 Summer Olympics even more special by introducing challenges. Ever tried finishing The Legend Of Zelda without a sword? Or slamming through Goldeneye with a Klobb-only arsenal? Beach volleyball with oily balls.
"Ice Cream Cookie Sandwiches"--Underrated material for house-building. Willy Wonka'd blow a stream of steam through the top of his hat.
"Never-Never Land"--Skip across the trails and over the hills. Trust me.
"Peppermint Attack"--Atsuko Yamano's progressed from a drummer who somehow plays behind the beat and ahead of the beat simultaneously to a drummer who hits the dime every time. And that's great, but I miss the sloppiness. It's the difference between hand-dipped and soft serve, y'know?
"California Lemon Trees"--'Cause the lemon trees in NY suck, and I saw three dead pigeons underneath one, probably a family. Use a straw for imbibing gold.
"Match 3"--When you can't ascertain which Ramones song is being ripped off, is it good or bad? Naoko Yamano told Spill magazine "I just keep on rocking," and I'm 99% she's been barred from at least two onsens for singing "Rock Hard Ride Free" by Judas Priest in changing rooms.
How many stars out of five? Dunno. They're all happy and healthy, though, however many there are.
