SST stands for Sade's Sweetest Taboo - from the npgmc:
As we mentioned earlier, watching the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina's wrath, Sade's "Sweetest Taboo" was put on a loop. After which Prince wrote "S.S.T." early Friday morning, Sept 2nd, after staying up all night. He sang all the voices and played all the instruments. "Brand New Orleans" is the xtended jam at the end of "S.S.T." All instruments again by Prince. Just a lil somethin' 2 take away the blues.
All proceeds from the sale of the cybersingles will go 2 Hurricane Relief lyrics: Who will b a guest in ur tent?
Certainly not the ones who don’t wanna repent And keep giving guns 2 the poorest of our nation sons Who is gonna call u by name? With no confusion, trinity or preacher's vain? Who says it every time And opens up the eyes of the blind Who will b the 1 in his bed? Certainly not the 1 who put the thorns on his head And wished him dead While they took his daily bread Which 1 is of value 2 u? The 1 depletin’ the oil supply Or the One that renews it And keeps the peace Like the groove in Sade’s Sweetest Taboo Give it 2 me, give it 2 me, the sweetest Give it 2 me, give it 2 me Give it 2 me, give it 2 me, the sweetest Who will b a guest in ur tent? R u gonna b happy with how ur life is spent? Did u have open arms 4 each and everybody you met Or did U let them die in the rain? Endless war, poverty or hurricane… Then it’s time 4 another groove Like Sade’s Sweetest Taboo Give it 2 me, give it 2 me, the sweetest Give it 2 me, give it 2 me Give it 2 me, give it 2 me, the sweetest Give it 2 me, give it 2 me, the sweetest Give it 2 me, give it 2 me Give it 2 me, give it 2 me, the sweetest | |

LOL, it totally sounds like the Amendment song - Good call, up there.
It's an alright tune though - Just one of those featherweight ones that leaves one's memory as soon as it's over. | |

Yeah, it's basically a "nothing" song. It's not bad enough to make fun of, and it's not good enough to warrant ever bother listening to it again. The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.
