Our (wife and I) favorite song, because when it is cold outside; we like to stay in and cuddle too. We might even put something in our drink.
ReplyDeleteBut I think the key point here is that I successfully passed dating 101.
I hate to side with SJWs, but we always call this the date rape song. I understand the innocent interpretation of the lyric "What's in this drink?" but in this day and age, it's got a creepy vibe. There has been a lot of mocking of the left the past few days for their insistence that this song is terrible, but they have a valid point. It's not often I can say that.
ReplyDeleteI like the song, but there is a ying yang quality to it.
