Dear JCPenney,

"99 Luftballons", even though it loses some of its edge when translated into English, is NOT a romantic song appropriate for pushing pink and red fluffy Valentines' day merchadise. It's a song about something innocuous setting off a NUCLEAR WAR ferfuck'ssake.

Get your head out of your asses and listen to the lyrics of the songs you co-opt, damn it. While you're at it, fire your marketing department. Any person who thought this was a good idea probably also used the Police's "Every Breath You Take" for their wedding.

Sincerely,

KJ

Demi and I wake up to hear this dizzy female DJ who knows nothing about the music the producer plays between her monologues. One morning, over the closing notes of Suzanne Vega's Luka, she said, "What a lovely song."

Lovely like all domestic violence is, clearly.
