A Fan of Goatee'd Svengalies Transliterating Swedish Pop into English

February 8, 2001

Well, it looks like I'm in the Jake camp on this one. Given my 02/06/01 comments about Britney and her tube sock wristbands, I can only be called what I am: A fan. Fan of what? Goatee'd svengalies transliterating Swedish pop into english so Britney, Mandy, Christina, or Jessica can rake in some t-shirt and Official Program sales down at local arena? By suggesting that there is a sliver of entertainment value extracted from listening to "Stronger" or "Baby One More Time," am I admitting that I had a Roxette poster over my bed in 1989, and that I don't like pop music unless there's a shady impresario in a fire-lit chamber somewhere in the Swedish hill country, smoking cigars made of Swedish C-Notes, and laughing as he eats his meat and swills Bayerskt from a flagon?

No, man. I just think that Britney kid puts me in a good mood when I see her. All that singin', dancin', and jiggling flesh HAS to turn that frown upside down!
