Liam Howlett’s (The Prodigy) take on ‘Cherry Lips’
Shirley met Prodigy’s Liam Howlett, who told her he liked Cherry Lips. Here’s what Shirley had to say: “Bumped into Liam from The Prodigy at the airport this morning (Oh I can’t WAIT for their new record.I just can’t WAIT) and was utterly made up when he said that he dug Cherry Lips.I just love the fact that he gets it.So many people have just heard the pop aspect of that song and not the weird,subversive side of it.They simply take it at face value and look no further.
It’s weird…..I’m slowly beginning to realize that the majority of people really do take things at face value.I can hardly believe it but there you have it……….just yet another truly depressing condition of the human species.”
