Haha, I figured 'well that isn't very original'.
Clicked play. And listened through the whole song .

Good song! Now I'm listening to the original to compare them:
The Kinks - You Really Got Me Before that I was listening to a song I always enjoy when I hear it on the radio, one reason being that this song uses the word "moot" in it. I think this may be only song in existence that uses the word "moot." Rick Springfield - Jessie's Girl

Yes, I agree, Holly!
The beginning of your song reminded me of "Safety Dance" by the New Wave Group "Men without Hats," so now I'm listening to that. I'm very amused by the video (below) since the video isn't at *all* what I envisioned based on the music. I always imagined the singers looking like Japanese robots...kind of like Devo. Instead what we get is a fake Medieval romp. I used to think the song was cool...but now.... Bah. I still think it's cool. This song has probably helped multitudes of shy, overly self-conscious tween years kids such as I was get over their inhibitions and actually allow themselves to dance at school parties. That's a good thing.

I was recording a tape with a lot of Django Reinhardt on it for a forummember.
He's not much of an audiophile himself and he said: "This is probably the first premium quality recording I've ever had". But well... It's Django Reinhardt, it's recordings from the late 30's to the early 50's. It sounds awful . So now I'm recording him a little tape (13cm reel, half an our of music) with 1. The Coral - Walking in the Winter (LP) 2. Calexico - The News about William (CD) 3. Jamiroquai - Drifting Along (CD) 4. Arbouretum - Highwayman (LP) 5. Sleepy Sun - Rigamaroo (LP) 6. Jimi Hendrix - Little Wing (LP) 7. The Upsessions - Dorothee Blackswan (LP) 8. Belle & Sebastian - I Fought in a War (LP) Hope he likes it

While thinking about Van Halen's cover of "You Really Got Me," I asked myself what female singers have made songs that are equivalently carnal, since it often seems as if most love/lust songs are by men. I came up with three so far: Shakira's "Shewolf" (which I hate) and the following two, which I like. So now I'm listening to these: Blondie - In the Flesh Sweet but sensual at the same time. Divinyls - I touch myself Very blatant. Perhaps a good female counterpart to Frankie Goes to Hollywood's infamous, "Relax (Don't do it)" which I remember seeing in concert in Germany. So which is better, "I touch myself" or "Relax (Don't do it)?" My vote goes to the Divinyls because she is a little more holistic in her approach to desire. Frankie Goes to Hollywood - Relax (Don't do it)
