At long last, the main performer at this year’s Pride festival has been announced, and amazingly it’s not a moppet from the Bush Sr. era. (My Martika prediction was off, I guess.) No, this year the headliner is the comparatively au courant Amber, the forty-year old Dutchwoman whose lone venture into the American Top 40 was the 1996 hit “This Is Your Night.” (According to Wikipedia, at least; apparently the far more memorable “Sexual (Li Da Di)” only made it to #42 back in 1999 and, lest I sound like I’m undermining the achievements of the Low Countries, she’s had five #1’s on the Dance Club Play chart, the most recent of which was apparently a 2002 single entitled “The Need To Be Naked.”)
