@Forestsex The song is called LOVE IN THE AFTERNOON ... "he went down and found that sweet ol' river" and you think if isn't a metaphor for sex? Um, ya ... whatever you say.
One of the most gorgeous arrangements Streisand ever sung (in my opinion) was "The Sweetest Sounds" at the very end of "Barbra... and other Musical Instruments." Anyone else agree? It had a really ethereal, almost heavenly creepy choir arrangement behind her and it was just eerily beautiful.
Oh my god! This is a true track that relates so well to both sexes. It was my partner and my song 15 years ago and has very 'special' memories when we fulfilled the lyrics.
With a line like, '...deep in my soul, I could feel the quiver; then he went down, and found that sweet ol' river and he showed me the way to find love in the afternoon'...that is VERY SENSUAL! I'm tellin' ya'll, Barbra needs to go back to 70's style music making! You should hear the remix I did of this song! I'll post it soon! I've added much MORE atmosphere to it!

@mikesterSTLMO Metaphor . . . the river may be, just might be a kind of secretion. Hello Forest!

She's what you call a great singer. There will never be anyone that can even come close to Barbra.

He went down to find the river, eh? That's pretty silly.

If you are less literal I think you can figure out what it's a metaphor about.
eurotomm 2 years ago
No, I totally get the metaphor, it's just really bad poetry in my opinion. It's always a little silly when one tries to write obliquely about sex.

@caveatemp well she couldnt sinf "he licked my cunt till I came," that would be vulgar... non?
