what a brill song, ment for both sexes!!! so male and female enjoy, as its emotial and then raw!! but on both parts!! for a change, got the private as well!! nice touch , lol, no abso love this song, so emotional and caring, and real!!!!
On the version I have, the middle bit of the song is different. Instead of a drum beat it uses the piano which is so much better. It's on an old 12" LP and I don't have a record player anymore. I can't find that version anywhere on a digital format on CD or MP3 . Anybody got any Ideas ?
I´ve loved him & his music since I was 13 years old! I remember the Canadian radio presenter, Diane Luke, commenting on his lyrics Wake up and make love WITH me, and how touched she was that he´d specifically said WITH as opposed to TO - it was a shared and equal experience as far as he was concerned! Lovely.
Let it be clear to any and everyone that I am waking up and I am making a concerted effort to re-define my life. I have moved beyond where I was. Now I wake up and make love. [At least in theory]
I'm 21, a huge Ian/blockheads fan, just watched sex n drugs n rock n roll movie depicting his life..it was very well played, i got introduced to all his music by my father, he used to watch him in his local pub before he was "big" his music is so...brilliant!...PS i'm Australian, so yea...he's global.
i got the album free with this and hit me with your rythmn stick back in '70 something for calling in a set list to KSJO radio in San Jose, California. ( And a jimmy buffet album!) Blew my mind. Opened my mind. Ian's honesty, the brilliantly creative, funny, sexual lyrics, and the music, funky, raw gets right thru to you in a way Steely Dan's (his only american rival), never could .(though i love it too).
When i first heard this way way back in the 70's i was only in my early teens, but i knew then as i do now that i was listening to something special, i grew up a bit musically after hearing this...............
all in an English accent he knew it would make him stand out and he did ,outstanding and very clever move maybe more people should try it instead of singing with a black accent or and American one.
@nanoukofthenorth It's actually a little less effective when you're sleeping alone. I've tried drawing a mouth on my hand with lipstick and say that to myself in the morning but unfortunately, at 6am thats genuinely scary stuff! ( My right hand has terrible "needs". Weird, bruising needs).
Ian Dury gets a lot of acclaim - which is deserved, but just listen to the Blockheads - what an amazing band!! I really don't think he could have pulled off the hits without the band making such a brilliant platform for his lyrics. I missed them at a festival a couple of years ago and have been kicking myself ever since :-(
haha how great I saw ian live with my dear departed dad back in 78 at the tender age of 13-my dad didnt like the music much, but took me to every concert, so I wouldnt run off and hitchhike to see the folks......saw sid vicious as well :)
I bought this album when it first hit and freaked my Mom out when she heard it blasting from my stereo. Nevermind the lyrics - which are rendered kind of touching in the end - it's the brilliant funky jazz flavor that rocks it with this song.
Some songs are magic - the combination of musicians, groove, vocals all come together to make a song that's perfect, esp as it is imperfect. No offense to Sinead, this is one of those songs that cannot be remade. It would be like covering Hey Jude. Sure, you can play it, but you can't re-interpret it without ruining it completely.
This song was written about me and my girlfriend, I'm still with her after 30 years, and she still gets in naughty naked moods in the mornings..just imagine that if you will..x..
