My vote for the catchiest pop tune so far in 2006 is "Perfume", by the long-lived band Sparks, from their new record Hello, Young Lovers (which I intend to purchase and review in the next few weeks). "Perfume" is a wonderfully bouncy song with elements of synth and a nice string section in the middle.Besides the huge list of perfume and fashion house brand names, there's this one line that cracks me up:
"The olfactory sense is the senseAnyway, I was thinking about this song again when I read today that a new perfume is being introduced to the world, a perfume that smells like blue cheese!
that most strongly evokes memories of the past.
Well, screw the past!"
It seems that the Stilton Cheese Makers Association hired an aromatics company to create a new scent, Eau de Stilton. Said perfume is a "symphony of natural base notes including Yarrow, Angelica seed, Clary Sage, and Valerian".
Mmmmmm ... blue cheese perfume ...

No, I think I'll stick with some "Chanel 5"...I don't believe I'll be sticking any Stilton behind my ears anytime soon.
Of course, you may have different ideas! ;)
