kiss - hotter than hell → Jill Sobule - I Kissed a Girl

  • I fucking love this song. Did when I first heard it on the radio, then more when I saw the video a few days later. Still do.

    Ignoring that it was the first overt lesbian story song to be that widely successful, which was cool as hell, but not with to enjoy it as a song. It’s catchy as hell, tells the story in a vivid way, and it’s happy. Yeah, there’s some of the context of the song that’s not super happy for everyone involved, but there’s a sense of discovery and joy in that discovery that makes up for it.

    Totally worth a listen, even if it ends up not being enjoyable for any given individual

    Edit: boring p.s.

    When the Katy Perry song of the same name came out, I was so hyped that someone covered it until I heard her song lol
