The lyrics are brilliant, too--trippy and fun, referencing everything from Paris Hilton and Ghandi to Motown and 'A Streetcar Named Desire'. I've always thought it would make for a great 'breakout' song for her here in North America, in that there's just enough of the familiar in it to hook an audience who might not understand the context (or the language). It could also make for a spectacular video in the hands of the right director.
OK, I'll shut up now.
