| Why would he take his blow up doll to entertainment award ceremonies? He's talking about plastic blondes like Pamela Anderson, not sex toys. | |

| Remember the song "barbie girl" by aqua? It was a euphoric song. It was commenting on life. This is the same. Plastic represents the "perfect" life. Having a "polyester" girlfriend would mean the perfect girlfirend. "Marvel at your plastic breasts, and plastic thighs" It's a really good song! I was about 5 or 6 when i first heard it, thought it was great!! | |

| Suddenly I just rembered this 1997-98 hit song, Polyester Girl, and I just listened to it. and its better than I had in my mind. Regurgitator's so quirky, I love it. "Took you for a ride up in an aeroplane..." part is a bit haunting... the song is deliciously ironic. | |
