"Taiwan Girls" - Song of the Week #7 (18 Feb 09)

"I'm living proof of all life's contradictions" - George Harrison (1 of 2)

Okay, so this song could just be called "Girls" but I was particularly ... "inspired" while living in Taiwan. C'mon, a single guy in a city of millions ... can you blame me? What with so many people around, it would be hard NOT to notice how many of them were attractive women.

The song is definitely one of my most "mirthful", if you will; alternately, there is a loneliness that can set in while living in a foreign country and a need for affection. I could easily imagine the Temptations singing backup!




Peace,
Brother B

Thanks all! Yeah, it's not a typical lyric for me, but it's not reeaally out of character - it's just a part of myself that I keep under wraps. :^)

You're so funny! At some point, a montage of the intros is in order. I like your sanging.

I agree -- this is pretty amusingly out of character for the B man, tho I'd also say that the lyrics are genuinely funny in and of themselves. I'd suggest tightening them up here and there -- make 'em "scan" a bit better, like -- but they've already got a rascally quality that's quite entertaining. Good vocals too.

This is such a fun song. But I have to be honest... I laughed my ass off listening to it. It seems so unlike the Brent I've come to know and love. But I definitely love this song.
