Scala & Kolacny Brothers - I Touch Myself (Live)

Album: Dream On
Released: November 24, 2004
Video: 2002

I Touch Myself is a song made famous by Australian rock band Divinyls and has been covered by many artists over the years. The song was considered somewhat controversial in the United States due to its content; the songwriters also penned Madonna's Like a Virgin. This becomes more provocative when you have a teenage girls choir covering it. This is an early performance by Scala at the annual TMF Awards in Belgium back in 2002.

Below is an excerpt from an interview with Steven Kolacny (one of the two brothers and composer):

Q: The choice of The Divinyls "I Touch Myself" seems quite an abstract choice in the context of the album. Why did you choose this song in particular?

A: It was a bit like the joke of the CD. Often, people make jokes about the fact that 2 brothers are surrounded by 60 beautiful young women! I touch myself is the song for all those men in the audience, who just come to see girls (only 2.5 % of the Scala-audience!)

-- Lyrics --

I love myself
I want you to love me
When I'm feelin' down
I want you above me
I search myself
I want you to find me
I forget myself
I want you to remind me

I don't want anybody else
When I think about you
I touch myself
I don't want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no

You're the one who makes me come running
You're the sun who makes me shine
When you're around I'm always laughing
I want to make you mine

I close my eyes
And see you before me
Think I would die
If you were to ignore me
A fool could see
Just how much I adore you
Get down on my knees
I'd do anything for you

I don't want anybody else
When I think about you
I touch myself
I don't want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no [2x]

I don't want anybody else
When I think about you
I touch myself
Ohhh [4x]

The reason they're so good is because they are using Voldemort for a director. Cheat.

@MWCcheer10 This is called "projection": YOU are the one with the mind in the gutter! It's just a song they are singing.

I would like them to sing "Who wants to live forever" by Queen.

@Demarchist LOL! The norm because it's never made into an issue and the person called 'bad' for doing it. Some parts of Europe and Scandinavia have life, sexuality, and morality correct. Which sucks for me currently living in the US.
