Notes

I was thinking I'd 'Float like a butterfly and sting like a bee' and 'Come at ya like a bolt of lightnin'.' But isn't this a love song of sorts to? You can feel it in the groove and the tone. It's sassy and greasy, yet elegant and sexy. It's saying, 'ome on over here and let me show you what I got!' Laying down those rhythm guitars was so much fun. The whole recording turned out to be some kind of neo-funk-delta-blues-rock thing, with that bubbling guitar figure on top, acting like some deranged vocal performance.
