Are You Sure You Want To Know The Secret Of This Life?
La Femme “Clover Paradise”
“Clover Paradise” would fit in very well on the What Was Schaffel? playlist I made earlier this year, which collected electro-glam music from the early 2000s. I’m a sucker for this aesthetic, particularly the way a severe grayish palette and ultra-precise shuffle beat complements a lusty, perverted vibe. It’s like the musical equivalent of someone dressed in latex fetish gear. In the case of this song, the lyrics are enticing the listener to experience some sort of psychedelic awakening, but with the caveat that not everyone can handle this and it must be taken very seriously. I like this twist on a classic theme – scary instead of welcoming, seductive in a dominant sort of way, and actually pretty sensible and responsible in its messaging.
