It’s all very mod, minus any pretense of legitimacy.The bridge signals a radical change in tone. The three chords employed throughout (bold minimalist statement or banal pop trash?) suddenly turn minor, and Hilary starts yelling “Away! Away!” for no discernible reason. To add visual insult to aural injury, all of this takes place while Hilary dances in front of a shadow puppet of a speedometer.This disturbing...
