R Kelly/Broken Social Scene - I’m A Flirt/Shoreline

Still one of the greatest things I have ever heard.

No, seriously. This is amazing. I always play it when I need a boost.

Rock ‘N Roll Suicide - David Bowie

Oh no love! you’re not alone
You’re watching yourself but you’re too unfair
You got your head all tangled up but if I could only
make you care
Oh no love! you’re not alone
No matter what or who you’ve been
No matter when or where you’ve seen
All the knives seem to lacerate your brain
I’ve had my share, I’ll help you with the pain
You’re not alone

Big Mama Thornton - They Call Me Big Mama (1957)

Big Mama’s last recording for Peacock in 1957 was pure fifties style Rock and Roll. “They Call Me Big Mama” is a hilarious, Bluesy, Rock and Roll number in which Big Mama boasts of her sexual prowess. She belts out the lines “They Call me Big Mama ‘cause I weigh three hundred pounds; I can rock and I can roll and can really go to town.” Keep in mind the term “rock and roll” at the time was Black American English slang for sex. She further wails “I’ll satisfy you this morning if you take me home with you; you’ll never be blue ‘cause I know just what to do.”

I also think it’s funny (apart from the ongoing conversation of sexuality) that black women never get credited for any kind of “feminist” work. I mean, here is a woman in 1957 (it wouldn’t be any less transgressive nowadays though) not just talking about her sexuality but also proudly proclaiming that she weighs 300 pounds. If this was a white woman, she’d be a modern day feminist hero for that fact alone I think.

Where “funny” means “feminism is kind of riven with institutional racism too”, yeah. I’m sad I’d never heard of this lady before, she is awesome. 

Also, this will now and forever be the only song I hear in my head when I am walking my sassy high-heeled self to and from anywhere.
