...wasn't even paying attention to what she said. In fact, he was just looking her up and down, suddenly appreciating her good looks and oblivious to the conversation.

...necessarily have to take the defensive in this situation. Back up off 'da ropes and assert yourself as a confident woman of the 90s by trying these other approaches. Use the classics, "Did someone step on a duck?," or "What the hell was that?," or even preface your burst of flatulence with, "Would you like to know how I would end war and world hunger...

But they take a little bit of everything and make music with a fresh and original perspective--something rare and beautiful in the music industry.

Raw energy and anger were more evident in earlier Cake music. Their two most widely-known songs, "The Distance" and "I Will Survive," stood out and were filled with intensity. Not so with this album...
