Confession's good for the soul, my friends.

[constance]

I thought of doing this as a poll, but I'm worried that the text length won't be enough to get me the information I crave, so if you'd just be so kind as to answer my nosy question in the comments, I'd be much obliged.

The thing that's got me thinking about this is that lately I've been listening obsessively to this one song on repeat, so much that I seem to have broken it, twice, and have had to redownload it. Twice. (No idea how this could possibly have happened, btw.) It's a total guilty pleasure, it's like nothing else I like or listen to, and I'm a little embarrassed to admit that I love it, but I really really do, I can't get enough, and I don't care whether you like it or not, will accept with equanimity your opinion that as songs go it's seriously unacceptable, but I kind of want to share it anyway:

Candyman by Christina Aguilera, fun, raunchy, retro, hooky, and completely irresistible.

So what's your current favorite, one-stop-got-me-hot song? And why do you like it? Sharing the song itself is totally optional, because what I really want here is to know that I'm not obsessing alone.

and now, the words!

I poked around a little bit and found this (http://www.sacredcircles.com/THEDANCE/HTML/DANCEPAG/ANDRO.HTM). It turns out this is a (very) old dance tune from Brittany, and the translation has the feel of a fairy tale sort of story. All those repetitive syllables in the chorus are a few nonsense words, plus this extremely cogent and thoughtful passage:

Girl on top, girl on the bottom.
Girl, girl, girl, woman,
woman, woman, woman, too!

See, this is why I like songs in languages I don't speak. :-)
