For 20 years if you had asked me who wrote the opening song to Final Fantasy X I would have said Rammstein. I learnt today that was just a weird internet rumour from the early 2000s, presumably from mistitled MP3s on Limewire.

Ladies.
I didn't just figure this out, but it was way, way too late in life that I realized that in most pop & rock music, "dance" = "gently caress."

That does make "Dancing On The Ceiling" even more impressive.

Though I'm not sure how to feel about "Hold me closer, tiny dancer".


It also makes any requests to "put on your dancing shoes" simply sound unnecessarily aggressive

Callin' out around the world
Are you ready for a brand new beat
Summer's here and the time is right
For loving in the street
They're loving in Chicago (loving in the street)
Down in New Orleans (loving in the street)
In New York City (loving in the street)
All we need is music, sweet music
There'll be music everywhere
There'll be swingin' and swayin' and records playing
loving in the street
Oh it doesn't matter what you wear
Just as long as you are there
So come on ev'ry guy grab a girl
Everywhere around the world
There'll be loving (loving in the street)
They're loving in the street
loving in the street
It's just an invitation across the nation
A chance for folks to meet
There'll be laughing, singing and music swinging
loving in the street
Philadelphia, PA (loving in the street)
Baltimore and D.C. now (loving in the street)
Can't forget the Motor City (loving in the street)
All we need is music, sweet music
There'll be music everywhere
There'll be swingin', swayin' and records playing
And loving in the street
Oh, it doesn't matter what you wear
Just as long as you are there
So come on, every guy grab a girl
Everywhere around the world
They're loving
They're loving in the street (dancing in the street)
Way down in L.A., every day, they're fuckong in the street
Let's get our big strong long, get on time (they're loving in the street)
Across the ocean blue, me and you (we're loving in the street)

"Rock and Roll" is itself a euphemism for loving

50's music was heavily coded.

You had white guys stealing black music and taming it down but ultimately you want to go to a dance party to dance.

According to the other band members, Little Richard's Tutti Frutti was originally about assfucking and the producer had to bring in a local songwriter to come up with new lyrics for the studio recording

And the original lyrics were about using lube to get it in, but the third cowriter on the final bowdlerized version was a guy called Joe Lubin' :ironicat: :yosbutt:

Yes that is specifically what the song is about.

If you really dive into Little Richard's sexuality and the way he identified over the years, it paints a hell of a picture. It seems like he wasn't necessarily "gay" the way we'd think of it today, but he really really was into being subversive, so when loving dudes was super taboo and dudes were wanting to gently caress he was into it. He was seemingly more into watching dudes gently caress than loving them or getting hosed by them himself, there are stories about how he'd pay other dudes to go at it in the back seat of his car while he drove around watching them in the rear-view.

That one is actually about mass murder (or it was until they tweaked the lyrics from a fan song for the slasher Maniac to a dance song for Flashdance)

Pre tweak one lyric was "He's a Maniac Maniac that's for sure. He'll kill your cat and nail it to the door."

Kinda the opposite of what happened when Michael Jackson wrote a cheery pop banger called Starlight
