Musical Sunday


This past Thursday we celebrated the debut of the Barbie doll at the 1959 American International Toy Fair in New York City. The Barbie doll, and its numerous spin-offs and accessories remains popular today, especially with the teenaged boys who develop unrealistic expectations of the typical female superstructure from close study of their sisters' dolls. A live-action Barbie movie is coming this year, starring Margot Robbie as the titular (don't snicker) doll, and Barbie was the star of this great 2015 video from Postmodern Jukebox, starring Morgan James on vocals ...


Ah, ah, ah, indeed.

Have a good day and enjoy the rest of your weekend. More thoughts coming.

Well, I've just wasted a little time chasing Morgan James around the internet.
