The Dark Romance of Y...

Red text below = linked text. Click to check stuff out!

Your Woman ~ White Town
You know that old saying, about hell's fury paling in comparison to a woman's? This is (to me) a comical expression of the idea, the most amusing bit being, "So much for all your highbrow, Marxist ways; just use me up and then you walk away." C'mon, that's hilariously eloquent for a chick enduring the death throes of her relationship.



Your Touch ~ The Black Keys
This was the first of their tunes I ever heard and, as I've already said many times throughout April, it grabbed me by the gut from the very beginning. It's a super-simple arrangement of drums, guitar, and the oh, so sexy voice of Dan Auerbach. Frankly, when he wails that he nee-eee-eee-eee-eeeds my touch, I'm more than willing to...oh, he's married? Damn it. Um, I mean - I wish him and his family every happiness.



You, The Night, and the Music ~ Tones on Tail
It's a sinisterly sexy Goth instrumental. Enough said.

Hot Stuff ~ Donna Summer

C'mon, I don't really have to explain this one, do I? Girlfriend wants some hot stuff, baby - you gonna give it to her, or what? I wouldn't keep her waiting for too long, if I were you.



Howlin' for You ~ The Black Keys  

Here's a tune about how some chick brings out Dan Auerbach's inner beast...in the sexiest possible way, of course. Apart from digging the song, I enjoy the wolfie metaphor and, frankly, Auerbach's voice makes me go all melty...you know what I'm gonna write next, dontcha? Woof. (PS: This video, according to the Wiki entry I linked to the title, is "a parody of a sexploitation film trailer" and in it, we finally learn what Willis was talkin' 'bout.)


 

Hella Good ~ No Doubt

Homegirl Gwen represents for the ladies, singing about how her fella makes her feel so groovy. Of course, no one says "Hella" anymore, but I will - that bass line, though nothing fancy, makes me feel hella HAWT!
