You know I love that song too. Ultimately, I think the lyrics don't make a lot of sense, but it is so catchy and earworms like nobody's business. I had that in my head all summer.
They should film that story and show it every Christmas.

Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

You haven't heard Firework until you've heard it filked as a pro-WWI propaganda song as part of a suffragism role-playing game in a college history class.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Ann, that's a ferret.
The Doors don't have the only version of "Light My Fire." Jose Feliciano has a version that smolders beautifully -- imagine Barry White covering anything by Prince (maybe "U Got the Look"), and you have the general idea. Will Young also tried his hand, but as much as I love Will Young's voice, he didn't do anything that Feliciano hadn't already done.
