"Like An Ex-Virgin/ Touched For The Umpteenth Time"

Sorry, I generally steer clear of what passes for "pop" culture, but I can't resist this:

Madonna Snaps At Bored Audience.

Apparently, the old girl felt the need to hector somebody who she felt wasn't getting into the shhhwing of things:

“If you are only going to sit there, at least you can smile," reports The Scoop.

What makes me think this isn't the first time she's said that? Heh.

Know what would be the perfect song for Madonna? How about a cover of Lili von Shtupp's classic "I'm Tired"? Somehow, it just seems to, er, fit.

I mean, after all - Madonna cluelessly riffing Madeline Kahn parodying Marlene Dietrich would be really rather beautiful in a kind of Bizarro World Platonist way.

Hell, I'd buy it.

Ah, genius, Robert, that would indeed be sheer genius! I'd buy it too! :-D

The only way I would be persuaded to buy anything of hers.

Dam, now I am down with the rest of the scum...

I went to see a Crosby, Stills & Nash concert in the 80's and they had the nerve to lecture from the stage. The band were sleep walking through (ok - when were they not?) and then got huffy because people were talking during their "very beautiful song."

Lili von Shtupp - You are brilliant Robbo!
