OMG Pe, this was hilarious. Love your tongue in cheek style in this one.

Haha… A dirty mind is a terrible thing to waste. It practically wrote itself because I knew I could let my sense of humour run wild. 😁 Thanks for reading, Tamara. Have a fantastic weekend!

Interesting list of songs! I knew some of them of course, such as "Love to Love You Baby." My husband used to play the song in his classroom when he taught high school. There's no way he'd be able to do that today here!

Haha… I can imagine, Dan. The pendulum seems to be swinging in the opposite direction now. Sadly, it’s much the same over here. Thanks for reading and reacting. Have a great weekend!

Great list! now you’ve got me thinking… just what kind of wood was Amii Stewart knocking on?πŸ€”πŸ«’ Happy Friday to you

Haha… there really is a double meaning to Knock on Wood. On the surface, it’s about someone who doesn’t want to lose the love they’ve found. But it also seems to refer to the sound of a bed knocking against the wall during sex. 😁

Amii Stewart will definitely get her own episode somewhere down the line. I’m making a mental note to find out whether she was aware of the song’s double meaning. I suspect she was, but I’m not entirely sure.

The funny thing is that once you start researching this subject, you discover far more examples than you ever imagined. 😁 I’m currently reading a book about LGBTQ+ artists and how they expressed their thoughts, desires, and love through hidden meanings and double entendres. It’s fascinating just how many there were.

I’ll definitely be doing more episodes on this topic.

Thanks for reading and reacting, poolhouse. Enjoy your weekend!
