What Was Her Name (feat. Chicks on Speed) by Dave Clark @bixlasagna @theshadowinyourstep @movinginstero 👁️ 🌙

[crazygirl58]

the song smoke by liz phair, the album opener from her electroclash-pop-rap-absurdist-post-post-post-post-ironic-satirical-antisatirical masterpiece where she reflected on her experiences working in a career field dominated by men in order to critique the state of the music industry and the socioeconomic standing of women within it, 2010's funstyle, brought the world of electroclash to its knees.

the dark, heavy beats of the track backing invoke stylistic similarities to ladytron's first two albums (604 to a greater degree than light & magic) or the early work of peaches. in some regards, it even leans outside of electroclash, possibly towards trip hop. the production on this track is not dissimilar to the production of nellee hooper, graham massey, tricky, howie b, and, of course, björk herself on her 1995 album post, i find a shocking amount of similarity between liz phair's smoke and the tracks army of me and enjoy.

the instrumentation on this track harks back to that of the band le tigre, electrocute's 2004 album troublesome bubblegum, and even the guitars on lesbians on ecstacy's 2004 self titled album.

the spoken words elements which seem to be influneced by the work of chicks on speed are present not only on this song, but remain a prominent feature throughout the album. phair's fearless approach towards absurdity and the methods she uses to embrace it (rapping, avant-garde electronic production, extreme vocals, etc.) reminds me of chicks on speed's 2003 album 99 cents. thematically, funstyle and 99 cents are not identical, but certainly would agree with each other as critiques of superficial, greedy, exploitative industries.

her vocals on the track are not unlike those of alison goldfrapp on 2005's strict machine and the "you dummy" sample in the chorus is reminiscent of the "you big dummy!" sample used throughout M.I.A.'s 2005 release, URAQT.

liz phair has never failed to exceed the expectations her listeners place upon her. this is yet another example of how the always controversial, frequently underestimated often overlooked, sometimes overlooked for a good reason, never forgotten artist has forever altered yet another genre of music. first the indie rock world with her demos and 1993's exile in guyville, then her overhated attempt to break into the ever expanding teen pop genre with 2003's self titled, and, as we can conclude from the analysis above, the world of electronica with 2010's funstyle. keep in mind, smoke is just one song from liz phair's TRUE magnum opus. the rest of this album contains even more brave, daring pieces of electroclash inspired music that should not be overlooked.

She's in parties, what does that mean?

Is she wearing a blue, the red or the green?

The people she knows, the things she sees

She knows? what's up, she's never at ease

The things she sees, she's never at ease

Her ambitions are well kept secret

Even her friends don't know what she intends

Out of public sight, but in the public mind

What will you wear to the party tonight?

What will you wear to the party tonight?

She's in parties

What was her name?

She's in parties

Can she play the game?

She's? in parties

Give? her the floor

She's in parties

Through the black door

She walks with the limp tonight

We fear she's lost the fight

Dont pop your lipstick

Put on my lipstick

Black, pink green, red, open your mouth

And than shoot up your hands

She walks with the limp tonight

We fear she's lost the fight

What will you wear to the party tonight?

She's in parties

What was her name?

She's in parties

Is she? into the game?

She's in parties

Give her the floor

She's in parties

Through the black door

She's in? parties

Ready to go

She's in parties

You can't say no!

She's in parties

Got something to say

She's in parties

Do you really wanna play?

Is there something to say?

Do you really want to play?

Give her the floor

Through the black door

She's in parties

... colors everywhere

She's in parties

... her hair

She's in parties

On? a left and to the right

She's in parties

What will you wear tonight?!

AllMusic Staff Pick: Chicks on Speed Will Save Us All!

Nearly a quarter-century after its release, Chicks on Speed's debut album feels like the missing link between post-punk, new wave, and hyperpop. Will Save Us All! still sounds remarkably fresh as it builds on the playful irony of the Normal and the B-52's and points the way to the plastic self-awareness and proudly bratty attitude of A.G. Cook and Charli XCX.
