Song 13, A Guilty Pleasure: School Days
The song I have picked for today is completely innocent. It’s bright, fun, cheerful, and beautiful. When I listen to it, I feel energetic and happy. Yet, the happiness is over-shadowed by a feeling of guilt, so I believe the song can be called a guilty pleasure.
Why do I feel guilt? Because this society of ours has determined that a man cannot enjoy anything about young girls or women without associating it with sex – not only sex, but a perverse, dirty kind of sex. Guess what – society is wrong.
I could go on trying to explain my feelings about this and why I like this song, but as I am nearing my 50th birthday (a link to my wish list is on the right under Bob’s Links, hint, hint), I have decided to stop explaining myself to others. If you don’t like me or how I think, too bad.
Anyway, I suppose I will still feel guilty, even if there is no good reason for it.
My song for today is “School Days” by Guardians 4. It is connected with a Japanese anime and the group singing it is connected to Hello! Project, the super group to which Morning Musume is a part. Mitsui Aika, the leader of Guardians 4, is a member of Morning Musume.
If I want to listen to this song, I will. If I want to watch the video, I will. I don’t, but if I wanted to watch the anime, I would. And I don’t have to explain it to anyone. If you find something wrong in all this, I suggest you question your own thoughts and ideas. We are what we think. I’m thinking happy thoughts and enjoying the music.
