When YouTube Plays Off Key.

I’m on YouTube and click on a song by Daiching Tana. It’s a slow, ethereal piece carrying more than a hint of oriental mystery. My mood matches, which is why I selected it. But what does Google give me as a preamble?

It gives me a shot of a pair of voluptuous mammary glands encased in something blue, frilly and shiny. And it carries the message: Why are women so in love with this bra?

The word ‘incongruous’ immediately presents itself, closely followed by ‘bloody maddening.’ I don’t expect a commercial organisation to possess anything approximating to soul, but do they have to so readily betray their complete paucity of taste or any appreciation of life’s finer values?
