One Second of Love by Nite Jewel from Secretly Jag on Vimeo.
Because every Real Housewives of Philadelphia champagne and strawberries soiree needs to be broken up by stoned face dance troupes, prostitutes in fishnet body suits and funky ibexes. I’ve been digging the new Nite Jewel album for a minute, but haven’t written about it because it’s difficult to write about. It is pop music for people who find most pop music largely corny and over-produced.
Writing stuff like that infuriates Lady Gaga fans who insist that she’s doing something more than Billy Joel songs in drag. That’s cool. You can like whatever you want. But if it’s electro-pop shit, I prefer catchy songs that start out as 12-minute krautrock jams with philosophical underpinnings. I know, I know, that statement is pretentious as fuck, but until Gwen Steffani Germangotta collaborates with Dam-Funk and dances with ibexes instead of wearing them, I will ride for Ramona Gonzalez. The end.
