At 60 years old, Grace Jones should an inspiration for many of us closing in on that number. She’s fine, elusive, but damn if I didn’t get a few straight-up chills watching this video. I’ve watched it twice now. The first time I found it unsettling: you know, “Wow! Grace Jones! She’s still rockin’! Nice beats but, oh snap, sinister visuals…she’s scarier than ever.” The second time, I analyzed the lyrics: “Corporate Cannibal…hmm, I get it…feeding on consumers. But she wants to feed on what? Your meat is sweet…WTF!” Not sure there will be a third viewing, but tell me what you think.

an interesting music video, to say the least. I much prefer the song over the video, I couldn’t help being reminded of the “muse” from the 5th element as I watched this.. she looks like an evil muse…
