Personally, I think every song by those idiot pop groups should be performed with solo piano and a slower tempo and haunting vocals in order to expose the absolute inanity and misogyny of the lyrics, particulalry when combined with a parodic video performance outlining how disempowering and confusing the mixed message is.
