DorothyParkerW
asCool

Play In The Sunshine The bassline, his vocal tone, and the call and response during the "We're gonna love all our enemies 'til that gorilla falls off the wall" segment.

The Ballad of Dorothy Parker the way he goes back and forth between natural voice and falsetto when discussing the conversation he had with Dorothy. That is a cool technique because he actually gives her a voice in the song; makes the narrative more realistic.

Something In The Water the opening line, "Some people tell me I got great legs, can't figure out why u make me beg...does not compute"---I mean honestly how many straight men would have the nerve to open a song with a line like that?

If I Was Your Girlfriend "Would u run to me if somebody hurt u, even if that somebody was me?" Again the vocal layering combined with the bassline. It's a trip to listen to this on headphones because u get to hear the many different vocal tones he sings in and the way they are mixed.

When 2 R In Love The synth line and his falsetto as he sings "Drop, Drop, water, water, come bathe with me".

I Hate U The entire courtroom scene, the anguish in his voice is just inspiring and the lyrical content brings the scene to life; its very cold and vivid.

We Can Funk...that last verse is on point!!! The passion in his voice and the way the song builds and builds until the release during his scream. And the lyrics are on point to...
"Wait a minute
Let me turn on some lights (We can funk)
Yeah, come here
U can blow the candle off, baby
U can turn the candle on
Which ever one U choose is alright
Cuz we're gonna do it all night long (Sex)
Sex between 2 people is alright
If all the love in the world is what they got
As long as they're not tryin' 2 hurt nobody
Just as long as it's hot
Good Lord, baby
I wanna make love 2 U
2 times, maybe 3
Yeah, and if U want 2 go 4 or 5
Baby, that's alright with me
Let me tell U now
Said I will be your little baby, yeah
I can be your big strong man
I can be your girl or boy, I can be your toy
Alright, let's dance! It's up 2 U!
Can funk me, baby
I'll funk U
We can funk one another
Whatever U want 2 do!
U got an electric ass, baby!
U got electric thighs, baby!
I can't wait no longer, child!
It's gettin' stronger, baby!
Open up your eyes!
See this gold chain around my waist?
Huh, I wanna give it 2 U, yeah
People tell me I got no taste
Then blow the candle out
Let's see if it's true "

Climax of "Condition of The Heart"

Every single day is a yellow day
I'm blinded by the daisies in your (FALSETTO)yard

Followed by the gorgeous layered vocals of:

There was a girl (There was a girl in Paris)
whom he sent a letter to... (Whom he sent a letter 2)
(Hoping she would answer back)
She never answered back and now (wasn't that a foolhardy)
He's got a condition of the heart. (notion ...)

omg..You Got the Look...that "well HERE we ARE...ladies and gentlemen..." i thought that was SO cool! i NEVER heard anything like that in a song before. That's the song that made me a fan. Shit. let me turn that on now...Oh, and the "rap" in Positivity "gotta 57 mag with the price tag still on the side...cuz when Spooky say dead, you better say die.." or some shit. Well, that's what i say. And that deep ass "MEOW" at the beginning of Scarlet Pussy..And that part in escape with just the beat and the crowd yelling "PARTY BABY!!" Too many to mention...

Some that are top of mind (cuz there are just too many to list):

Mountains: From "guitars and drums on the 1" through "And the girls say"

Kiss: The whole extension part with Sophie, but in the regular mix, the break with "little Girl Wendy" and the last verse with the extra James Brown rhythm guitar (i.e. the "Dynasty" verse)

Adore: Again the whole song, but especially the part where there seems to be a new chord progression going on.... "I know, that U know, I ain't cheatin' baby" etc.

DMSR: That synth turnaround phrase which gets followed by a lot of rhythm guitar break. Live (at The Avenue) .... all the "gimme some horns", and when Wendy screams "Oh My G-d!" cuz her emotion at that moment makes total sense.


Baby I'm A Star: All the stops and starts at the end and the synth horns.

Let's Go Crazy: Extended version...the part that's only in the extended version, where you hear the synth horns more clearly and all the Linn "Clap" accents.... in the movie they're donig that bend down/bend up choreoraphy


I guess that's enough for now.

My Current Favourites:

Electric Chair: "Let's take a drive, love, so we can make up our minds, love" and then in the end of the song when it all stops for few drumbeats...ohh, love it!

Lemon Crush: The chorus, I love his voice in it, I love the words...ooh it goes right through me!

Batdance: From "Go, go, go with a smile" to "Keep Bustin'"... Then the guitar after "And where, and where, is the Batman?"....Then the "I wanna bust that body" part in Vicki Vale part..... The Hey, we got the power..."-part....

I Love You In Me: "she don't blush 'cause she's so damn free",I love his voice in the whole song....the "I love you, I love you....in me" and the "With you honey I'm the richest in the world"

Erotic City: the chorus, I love how Sheena has a cold high voice and his drips with butter and lust: "Thoughts of pretty you and me, Erotic City come alive"

She's Always In My Hair: The very start, and then everything after that. Oh how I love that song! It's IMO great from start to finish.

Another Lonely Christmas: The chorus' "Darling, darling, you should have been there" always sends shivers down my spine. His voice is really gorgeous in this. The "another lonely christmas is mine, yeah, mine, yeah, andother lonely is MINE" is fantastic...

Then there's always million parts in Gett Off and Cream...But these are the most recent.

Glad I'm not the only one smile. I haven't done that exactly, but I remember back in the day hearing this in clubs, and tryin' to do that dance on the dance floor... sorta doing it but not really cuz people were gonna think I was trippin' out or having some kinda attack smile
