I want to make out with the video I love it so much:

Yo, yo, yo baby pop!

(Thanks for posting, Stereogum.)

I mean, it's cool that they did it, but that was a pretty lackluster performance of a song that typically oozes sex appeal. Only redeeming factor is Carrie Brownstein, because I love everything she touches.

Not enough sass; not enough pelvic thrusts.

There was a nice little profile of Carrie last weekend:
Nearly everyone in Brownstein’s life counseled her against starting a TV show and a band in the same year. But Brownstein now describes the decision to pursue both as “the most sane thing I’ve done in a long time.” “Portlandia” and Wild Flag are complementary, in a yin-yang way: rigid and rowdy; scripted and free. When performing music onstage, Brownstein says, the rules don’t exist. “All the parts of ourselves that need to be contained or put in check or regulated in our day-to-day lives all fall by the wayside. You can go to places that are dark or even dangerous or bizarre and hopefully find a little grace.”
“Portlandia,” by contrast, is “a magical place where everybody goes to tyrannical lengths to let you know how good they are,” Brownstein says.

How long before A Star is Born and Armisen is left wandering around Portlandia on his own, drunk and thinking about "when it was good".

Needs a "Lowrider" mashup beat.

without the semi-token to throw you off the scent, this would look like more SNL related black-face.

The horrible sound quality doesn't help the lackluster performance at all.

You might have to be a fan of Thao to really appreciate this. I am a huge fan so I love it. Thanks!

Thao is hot, even with bad sound quality and the like.
