I wasn’t planning to post today.  I’m sick and miserable, and writing is difficult with my brain all fogged up like this… but I want to share with you this amazing (if a bit raunchy)song. The artist is Beth Mills, and her voice is amazing.  She subverted some seriously misogynistic lyrics and made them feminist.  Wow. I’m pretty sure she didn’t change a word.  It was just intonation and context.
