Donna Summer- MacArthur Park Decomposition
Manage episode 233858163 series 1530784
It is frequently considered one of the worst songs of all time. And yet we, as a people, shot this song up onto the charts 5 times since its composition in 1968. The most popular of which was released by Donna Summer as a 17 minute-long suite. We should be ashamed.
Cake melting? Rivers in the sky? Chinese checkers? Somehow it has won two Grammy's.
This is pseudo-surrealism without the benefit of being written by someone who has used drugs.
Jimmy Webb is not good at this...
Moxie stays on-brand and drops a ton of fun tidbits.
