Just because I have been in the mood for seriously radio-friendly stuff sung by women, in which they tell off men in their lives. Just because. Only a couple here at the moment, but there may be more later. Also, there's comments after each one.

Weird thing about this one. Every time I heard it -- every single time -- at the end, I'd think, "But ( Read more... )
