...goes without saying that Sadie loves Thanksgiving. In fact, one Thanksgiving, while the extended family was eating in our dining room, the dog managed to pull down the entire serving tray of turkey that was sitting in our kitchen and gorge herself on the then-desecrated bird (a la A Christmas Story). These are the kind of shenanigans that I have come to expect and even admire from our family dog during Thanksgiving. While normally Thanksgiving is the most languid of all the holidays, consisting of heroic acts of gluttony followed by digestion-induced catatonia, I could always trust Sadie...

...first single off the album, "She Bangs," features upbeat pop rhythms. Martin's vocals appear and reappear at intervals without much consequence. While in Martin's previous hit "Livin' La Vida Loca" the energy and verve present was able to compensate for so-so vocals, this was clearly not the case in either version of "She Bangs." Both the backing music and vocals just seem like mediocre rehashes of past successes...
