![]() When I was a teenager the record that was all about sex was Meat Loaf’s Bat Out of Hell, and that was written by a guy (Jim Steinman). – Meat Loaf featuring Ellen Foley, “You Took The Words Right Out Of My Mouth (Hot Summer Nights)”, 1977, Bat Out Of Hell ![]() “On a hot summer night would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses… Will he offer me his mouth?… Will he offer me his teeth?… Will he offer me his jaws?…Will he offer me his hunger?” After about the first 70 seconds: *sold*, with the emphasis on the sexiest part of the song well before the 2 minute mark (‘and feel the pulse, beat beat beat beat’). Sonically, “Flesh” will remind you perhaps of “Joystick” from 8bit Heart, but that song’s such a slight tease in comparison. Sensual, sexual, aggressive, rough, undressed… and then the teeth go in, or so Simon sings anyway. The lyrics let you know right where the song is at within the first 30 seconds. So if you thought Rihanna’s “S&M” was risque, well you ain’t heard nuthin’ till you’ve heard “Flesh”. It’s very rare that lyrics by a male pop singer are written so boldly and sung by him. As announced last evening on the blog by Arjan Writes with a preview akin to trying to lick whipped cream off your nose, “Flesh”, the second single from the upcoming album R∆ by Simon Curtis, is available on iTunes today, in original and a very au courant somewhat retro Future Freestyle mix.Īnd sex, sex, sex is what it’s all about.
