Day 8- Mariella





OK, I admit, this is going to be a wee bit obscure for us non-Brits, but Kate Nash is a platinum selling artist over there.  I really don't have much knowledge of her to compare this to, but I seem to remember seeing her on a really cool HD music channel called Palladia a while ago and being utterly underwhelmed.  If it was her, then she also belted out the lyrics in a way that made it impossible for me to understand them.  Maybe that's good based on this line from her song "Mariella"...

And she looked in the mirror and she thought to herself "If I wanna play, I can play with me, If I wanna think, I'll think in my head."

Um, HUH?!  I looked up the song lyrics just to make sure there wasn't some deep reason for this line to be in there, and nope!  It's all about a completely introverted girl who never speaks.  OK....  Anyhow, it's so good to know that Mariella has decided to think by using her head.  That's a very sound choice, considering THERE"S NO OTHER PLACE TO "THINK IN" ON THE HUMAN BODY, KATE NASH.  Yeah, I said it.  Look, I know you hear of people, especially guys, thinking with their, um, naughty bits (to use a British term), but that's thinking with, not thinking in.  Subtle, but true.
