That song makes me angry for some reason.

It's not a very good song. I can't fathom how popular it was at the time, and it did not age well at all. And it's used so often. Montages on TV shows, commercials, etc. And every time I hear it, I get really annoyed.

Back then, it was what was passed for an "empowering" song.  A lot of songs for women back then were leaning toward subservient to men.

Sure, I get that. I'm for that. But shit, man... Come up with a better one, y'know?

There was even a balloon/foot fetish parody of the song several years ago.

I'm sure some vital memory or piece of information was deleted from my brain to make room for that fact.

So that's great.

They did, a few years later - "I Am Woman" (Helen Reddy).  Now, it's pretty tame.
