This is a bouncy chill, my darlings:



In honour of these ladies who are coming to my home town but sadly, I do not have the dosh to see. :(

I tell you what I love about these women and this song. They're just so damned confident, they're not waifs. These are amazons. And they know what they want and they are NOT afraid about asking for it. The men are eager in this clip but not domineering. It's a fun, sexual play between consenting, horny, damned fine people and it's always a joy to watch this music video, and to hear this song.

It's playful female sexuality, it's being young and having fun and I fucking love it.

Like the '90s version of the Pointer Sisters, pretty much. I love those ladies.

LOL! Yeah, but I can't imagine the Pointer Sisters singing about "how it hangs"!

The video needs even moar hot guys, but I agree. That video was the shit back in the day. I remember when it came out. I believe it was around the time of heroin-chic being huge, so the fact that they looked like normal, healthy women...awesome.

Yep. I loved that film clip. I wanted the shorts and long-top combo. I thought that was fuckin' awesome.

Maybe not. ;-) But when you consider they used to be gospel singers, that might have something to do with it. Even so, "Let's Get Excited" was all about sex for fun and letting loose, just like "Jump! For My Love" was essentially feminist.

Sorry, make that "I'm So Excited." I was thinking of a similar song title at the time...stupid lysdexia.

Damn. Now that I've had a chance to watch the video, I find them THAT MUCH sexier. So much attitude and self-possession...it's awesome.

I know, right? Those women know they got it, and they're not afraid to use it! :D

No disrespect to her, but I'm sort of sad that Salt refuses to sing these songs anymore because she is now a "Born Again Christian". :(

Yeah. I saw a clip from their reality show, she was freaking out about Pepa wanting to perform "Let's Talk About Sex" or something. :(
