Re: The Kind of Girls You Read About...

...in New Wave magazines.

Well, TP was a New Wave magazine. Since I'm only familiar with the TP books, just what was Rick James singing about?

better bust out the ear candles, it's "lurid magazines"...

hehe, or maybe it's newsweek magazine? sheesh, i don't fcc'ing know...

"nudie magazines"?

maybe i should bust out the ear candles for myself. sounds like "new wave" even to me now.

temptations sing!!!

I did an inter-web search: "lyrics super freak." They all say "new wave." So I'll save the ear candles for my bizarre satanik sex rituals. The kind of rites you read about/ in new wave magazines.

Girls I remember reading about in New Wave magazines:

Debbie Harry
Joan Jett
Siouxsie Sioux
The Slits
The Raincoats
The Au Pairs
Dolly Mixture
Tracey Thorne
Annie Lennox
Pauline Murray
Patti Smith
Tina Weymouth
Marianne Faithfull
Jane Wygall
The Go-Gos
The Bangles
Laurie Anderson
Gaye Advert
Kate Bush
Bananarama
The Belle Stars
Holly Beth Vincent

And to be honest, I would've been okay bringing any of them home to mother. They all seemed pleasant enough. So I dunno who Rick James may have been talking about.

Well, I guess I read about Wendy O Williams and Jayne County in New Wave magazines, also. Either of them would've distressed my mother to no end, I'm sure.

He may have meant "...in the back of new wave magazines." I mean, personal ads. Right? "Wanted: Woman. Must be crack user. Must be funky (big toe movin' in your boot funky). Must be willing to..." and after that, we just don't need to know.
