John Legend

I am a HUGE John Legend fan. There is a John Legend song that really is INCREDIBLY appropriate for life here in Spain. Here is the first verse and the chorus to P.D.A (We Just Don´t Care):

U know I love it when u loving me
Sometimes it's better when it's publicly
I'm not ashamed I don't care who sees
Just hugging & kissing our love exhibition

Let's go to the park
I wanna kiss u underneath the stars
Maybe we'll go too far
We just don't care
We just don't care

Here in España, this is a national anthem, seriously. Except they edit the chorus to say:

Let's go to the park, plaza, street, store, bus, train, subway, school, anywhere but in private
I wanna kiss u underneath the stars or not if it is cloudy
WE WILL DEFINITELY go too far
We just don't care, neither does anyone else
We just don't care, neither does anyone else

I know you are all sitting there saying, "their mommy and daddy´s need to set a better example...", but it IS the mommy and daddy´s that are doing it! It isn´t just the hoodlem teenagers and pre-teens doing the grossly inappropriate THINGS! Understand that they are not grossly inappropriate by Spanish standards, just those conservative American standards AND liberal American standards. You Americans (American Liberals) don´t care what kids wear or how they do to their hair or even if they disrespect their parents because they are just "expressing themselves". But the minute they start kissing in front of you in a movie theater, you know every single one of you are kickin´the back of the chair in front of you!!

I know... It's me that you're kicking! I LOVE SPAIN!

(Don´t act like you're surprised, Mom. You and I both know that I come by this trait honestly...)
