THE REVIEW

This is a long-standing issue, widely debated but essentially never fully resolved, which has been (re)brought to the forefront by the daily cross/political chronicles of the past few scandalously turbulent weeks: the unacceptable Invasion of (Our/Your) Privacy.

The hard-rockers Ratt (prophetic?) extensively discussed it, a solid 25 springs ago, in their second lasciviously sparkling work: and despite that, we are still stuck here, shriveled, completely listless debating whether the alleged intrusion is lawful, appropriate, and/or tolerable, especially when we are faced with public figures of a certain weight and importance (whether we like it or not) in the economy of our already rather vilified lives.

It is therefore very sad to melancholically acknowledge that not even the abundant plethora of sharp geometric-rock riffs contained therein was sufficient to resolve once and for all the piquantly thorny question: absolutely exhaustive titles on the subject such as “You’re In Love”, “What You Give Is What You Get”, “Give It All” and the incisive “Dangerous But Worth The Risk” seem, alas, to have taught nothing to the fervently inflamed parties involved.

It's all the fault of that fool Zappadu: may he listen to the Ratt first next time (orcocan)!
