Chromatics, "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun"

In yet another installment of their ongoing series of efforts aimed at doing anything apart from actually putting out a new album, Chromatics are releasing about 700 different versions of early 1980s pop classic “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun.” There’s a “dreamy” interpretation here, but I much prefer the variation above, as it does an excellent job of conveying the darkness and menace that were always present just below the surface of insistent glassy exuberance which characterized that terrible decade. Enjoy.
