Lola

'LOLA' by Marina Satti is all Greek to DAVID. Why? Because Satti sings in Greek, of course. It's Google Translate to the rescue, then, and we're grateful for the assist on this occasion. The lyrics reveal not everyone's a fan of Satti ("How does she represent our country?"), with jibes about her appearance and suitability as a role model. Haters, as we all know, gonna hate.

Satti's comeback is just as good as 'Epano Sto Trapezi', if not better. Fans of that song's bravura music video will be glad to know Fa and Fon Watkins are back in the director's chair—a two-seater, no less—with a bold satire on celebrity culture, product placement, and toxic fandom. Yet the cult of LOLA goes beyond the whip-smart choreography and production design.

The end credits revolve around a heightened cast of models, influencers, and so forth who just 'love'. LOLA… so much so that one of them named her dog after ("She died three years ago"). With friends and admirers like these, eh?
