I've just got to put these wings to test



Behold the 80s. How would we live, love and breathe without them? And how would we do it in contradictory ironic ways which keep you safe from merging heart, body and soul like they did in the 90s in a cutesy episode of Friends (and fell apart at the turn of the century). Or they did in the sixties with radical politics meshed and fucking each other singing 'I could drink a case of you' by Joni Mitchell, than filing cases for cheating on the revolutionary agenda, and sleeping through not just through the revolution the next morning, but the televised version (and all the repeats).

Anyway.. stop my rambling. Take Annie Lennox (technically 1992, but all divas in their heart belong to the 80s), and remember the song ...

I ain't missing you at all, since you've been gone away ..
I ain't missing you, no matter what my friends say ...
