If you want a hit, you gotta make it fit

This song came up on my iPod this morning as I sat on the train that whisks me toward my dubiously rewarding job in entertainment. It struck me as both funny and deeply sad that, 31 years after it was written, it's truer than ever.

And, much like in 1977, apparently high-waisted jeans are now back in fashion - something that is also deeply sad.
