Unless I missed boat completely the lyrics to new song is all about having a one night stand with a girl.
I get a lot of songs are about sex, love ect, but their fans are very young, and lucky for me dd1 isnt a fan BUT feel uncomfortable about girls as young as 8 singing a song about "getting some"

Lyrics here

I gave up on song lyrics when I found out what "Pour Some Sugar on Me" meant. Blush

Unless you are a 46 year old man then I'm not your sister English. And 16 year old Envy at the duvet cover. Grin

Anyone remember the

Now that was inappropriate.

'He gives me lovin' like nobody else, I like the way he turns me'
'Night time is the right time, we make love'

Any one remember George Michael and I WANT YOUR SEX?

Sparklingbrook · 20/10/2012 20:54

Yes cynister what was that all about? Grin Shock

I particularly like "Don't let those pictures leave your phone". Classy.

Someone needs to tell them their hair is stupid. All of them, in various different ways - stupid

squeakytoy · 20/10/2012 20:56

And was anyone badly influenced or corrupted by dodgy song lyrics?? I really think not! Grin

ShiftyFades · 20/10/2012 21:00

I was quite Hmm at those lyrics but..,. Now I'm just thinking of what a threesome with John and Nick would be like...

PuppyMonkey · 20/10/2012 21:02

Oops, I've been thinking they were singing "tonight let's get drunk and live while we're young" Blush

Sparklingbrook · 20/10/2012 21:02

Noooo. Just John Taylor's undivided attention Shifty. Nick would spoil it. Sad Apparently his oral sex technique is like an anteater. Wink

JamieandtheMagicTorch · 20/10/2012 21:03

Ew Nick Noooo.

John and Morten

MistressIggi · 20/10/2012 21:03

...Nick would be flicking his hair and John would be watching himself in the mirror?

(Whilst I am sorting Andy out next door!)

ShiftyFades · 20/10/2012 21:05

Oooo, I was talking about my Morten crush today, to the builder Blush

Sparklingbrook · 20/10/2012 21:06

John Taylor Wink

ShiftyFades · 20/10/2012 21:06

Nick the Anteater?

Nope, no ants down there Wink

Sparklingbrook · 20/10/2012 21:07

No John the anteater Shifty. Grin

thenightsky · 20/10/2012 21:07

I cannot get past their name to take them seriously.

Wand Erection.

JamieandtheMagicTorch · 20/10/2012 21:18

I think One Direction relates to the orientation of their hair

Sparklingbrook · 20/10/2012 21:20

Very true Jamie. Grin

Strongecoffeeismydrug · 20/10/2012 21:30

My then 7 year old singing whoooooa my sex is on fire was a bit eeeerrrgggg but the look on granny's face made me year :)
She doesn't listen to chart music

Sparklingbrook · 20/10/2012 21:32

If your 'Sex is on Fire' i think a trip to the GUM clinic is recommended. Grin

shesariver · 20/10/2012 21:37

'Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand' what's not to like?

Ah all well and innocent...but what about Girls on Film eh Grin

Sparklingbrook · 20/10/2012 21:39

I am still pondering posting the Girls on film video up so people can judge whether it's still as Shock 30 years on. But it goes on for 6 minutes....

DizzyHoneyBee · 20/10/2012 21:47

Not at all keen on the lyrics but it'll go over the head of most kids I expect. Like the save a prayer lyrics did with me when I was younger, as somebody pointed out we listened to it and didn't notice.
Adults notice much more..like how awful the lyrics of Aqua's barbie girl are yet 4 year olds up and down the country used to be allowed to sing it.
