Ya gotta love XM. Whole channels devoted to decades of really bad music that you would never admit listening to – unless you were running for POTUS. But I heard this on the 80’s station*, and I just knew I could find a YouTube of it** to share.
I think the last hit this group had was the song in Pretty Woman when Julia Robert’s hooker with a heart character*** left her emotionally blocked John, played by Richard Gere, to wonder why he was the morally challenged one in their “relationship”.
But I digress. Dangerous isn’t one of Roxette’s better remembered tunes but it is a great one to run fast and free (think Phoebe in Friends****) and far too.
Dangerous
You pack your bag.
You take control.
You’re moving into my heart
and into my soul.
Get out of my way!
Get out of my sight!
I won’t be walking on thin
ice to get through the night.
Hey, where’s your work?
What’s your game?
I know your business
but I don’t know your name…
Hold on tight,
you know she’s a little bit dangerous.
She’s got what it takes to make ends meet
the eyes of a lover that hit like heat.
You know she’s a little bit dangerous.
You turn around,
so hot and dry.
You’re hiding under a halo,
your mouth is alive.
Get out of my way!
Get out of my sight!
I’m not attracted to go-go deeper tonight.
Hey, what’s your word?
What’s your game?
I know your business
but I don’t know your name…
Hold on tight…
*I am not ashamed of this revelation.
**There probably isn’t a bad song in existence that someone with no life and/or too much free time hasn’t turned into a YouTube clip.
***Crappiest version of Cinderella to date.
****Remember the episode where Phoebe embarrasses Rachel with her jogging style?
As soon as the world becomes hip to Sirius/XM, commercial radio is doomed. If they survive, that is.
I don’t know about that. Since the merger there are so many more commercial stations and the pure music ones have added DJ’s. I pay to not hear people talk at me and at this rate I think my iPod is looking like the best thing.
fun song! love the rip on “pretty woman”. hated it…
Is it your birthday? Well Happy Birthday if it is!! And happy Thursday if it’s not! 🙂
Birthday? Um, no. I blog the song lyrics ahead and this was supposed to go up last month on my birthday but I changed songs for some reason. Usually Rob edits and catches these things but not today. Thanks for the well wishes though. How was your first day?
