Look, we don't know what this…
…means, but we love it for the fact that it's reminded us about two brilliant tunes from Cyndi's 2008 'Bring Ya To The Brink' album. Firstly, obviously, there's 'Into The Nightlife'. The video's slightly painful of course and the tune only really makes sense when you know about the chorus, but WHAT A CHORUS.

In the way that 'Into The Nightlife' was a 4thegayz theme album, so 'Memphis Blues' is pretty definite, almost to the point of caricature, in its styling. Clips here if you really have nothing better to do with your time.
