Pop Song of the Week: “Promises, Promises”

Wait! They made a Broadway musical with the same title as this song? What kind of sick bastards do they have up there in New York?

Okay, seriously, the musical obviously predated this song. And if nothing else, the video deserves credit for making me see the original song in a darker context than I would have ever got from just the lyrics. It is a little surprising, though, to read people's reactions to this video on YouTube. I mean they do know there's more to this video than just some woman drying her hair on a diving board, right? Or should I consider their refusal to see more than that a good thing?
