Post-Punk Duo Pleasure Victim Rip Apart Romance With Their Anti-Love Song “Sweet Nothings”
There is a moment, harsh and crystalline, when the music drops away and the slow machinery of romance is laid bare: a tin carnival of bright phrases, gaudy vows, spun for nickels. We walk through it dazzled, hand in trembling hand, believing the lights are constellations and the sawdust underfoot is incense. Yet the bulbs sputter; the painted horses limp; the air smells of singed sugar. John Lydon barked the warning years ago: This is not a love song - and though the chorus looped like a jeer on every dance floor, we kept dancing, thinking the title a clever mask for devotion. It was a sign, blunt as a billboard. Love, so loudly pronounced, withers into its own echo, collapses under the filings of repetition until nothing remains but flat slogans and a hush that tastes of metal. Real feeling cannot trumpet itself; it arrives barefoot, unannounced, and often passes before we dare to name it.

Those ear worms … always comin’ at ya from nowhere.

The reeling figures pass on by
Like ghosts in some forgotten play
Beneath the black and empty sky
Music plays and figures dance
With partners chosen by chance and still some times remember
The Masquerade’s forever
They reached for tomorrow
But tomorrow's more of the same
So they reached for tomorrow but tomorrow never came
Ugh. Heard this earlier and now it’s the latest ear worm.

A kinda 80s groove at the moment out here on deck: I almost forgot what a good singer Terri Nunn actually was back in the day. Even before “Top Gun” in ‘86.

@top40yearsago I loved #PleasureVictim, especially #Sex (I'm A...)
Like #Chicago before them, by the time they hit the top of the charts, they'd jumped the shark.
