There were the early adapters: magazine editors teetering out of the Four Season?s hotel with brown belts cinching their silk frocks. Then at runway shows like Trussardi?s, bright red or yellow python belts were wrapped around and around Grecian-style silk jersey dresses. By the time Gucci designer Frida Giannini opened her 6pm show on a mirrored runway, the appearance of a tight, high-waisted weight-lifting kind of belt was no surprise. A few hours later Rosella...

Which is not to say that a song can't also be what it makes fun of - that a faux-inspirational song can't be inspirational and incorrigibly, addictively, sing-alongable. Remember that "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" became the anthem for English football clubs. That's the lovely thing about parody: nothing is so silly that someone won't take it seriously...
