Birthday Cake (song) edit
- ... that according to two critics, "Birthday Cake" is a song which expresses Rihanna's desire to have a "quickie"?

- Hook: Great, but I have another suggestion (especially since it's emphasized so much in the reviews): ALT1 ... that Rihanna's "Birthday Cake", said to resemble a real-life quickie, lasts just 78 seconds? or ALT2 ... that "Birthday Cake",Rihanna's 78-second ode to quickies, has been described as "not enough of a celebration"?
- New and long enough; you could listen to the song five times before finishing the article. Referencing looks thorough. Paraphrasing checks: 1, 2 seem okay.

- Thanks. I prefer the first one. "The quickie" doesn't make sense, because it's not an object or place. Calvin • Watch n' Learn 17:51, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
