I know. Very boring. "My milkshake brings all the boys to the yahd..." (repeat x 10) is pretty much what passes for lyrics here. | |

I think a better comparison would be to the sounds of Prince's "Lovesexy" beats, like I said earlier. But it does not sound like no "Nasty Girl".

David:eye: it's interesting you say that because I was in a club months ago and the DJ started playing an acapella of "Milkshake" and mixed in none other than "Nasty Girl." It was cool. I can definitely see how people can compare to it to Vanity 6's original. | |

The lyrics and theme (but not really in sound) of "Milkshake" remind me a lot of Donna Summer's "If You Got It Flaunt It" (from "Once Upon A Time...", which is by far the funkiest thing Donna has ever done. Wonder if that was the insipiration for this song? Here are the lyrics. And keep in mind they don't include a lot of hte ad libs she shouts while the background singers do the chorus (on this song, her real sisters). Got check out this album just for this track and you'll find some amazing sutff.

Definitely not in the same lyrical league as "My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard.....I could teach you, but I'd have to charge". "If You Got It, Flaunt It" is full-on camp. Other songs like "Fairy Tale High" and "Queen For A Day" are in the same vein. Maybe if you compared it to "Bad Girls" I'd understand, but at least that was tasteful and a great record. Unlike "Milkshake". [This message was edited Wed Feb 18 17:44:43 2004 by VoicesCarry] | |
