Unholy
It’s been a minute since we have had new Sam Smith music. I've been waiting for them to come up with something new and they did not disappoint. I love Sam Smith. Ever since Latch came out, I'm always on the lookout for new songs. To me, they are the equivalent of the musical love child of Boy George and Adele. Love the voice and the delivery. And I love that they're unabashedly queer.
And now they've joined forces with Kim Petras and they give us this little romp into the sexy and delicious. Notice the slinky beat, and the inversion of the breakdown, where Sam is carrying the melody and Kim does her thing. It's usually the opposite, and it's very Cabaret, very Fosse, very Den of Iniquity Burlesque with many perverse and fun permutations and I'm here for it, of course. Also, Sam in a sleeveless black t-shirt doing the grease monkey routine? Daddy did take the car to the body shop!
Are you ready? @samsmith, living their best life is giving it to us.
XOXO
P.S. I wanna dance to this, and I wanna dance with Paddy. Oh, you were right. If you thought you're recognized the mug. He’s in the video, along with many other familiar faces. Daddy could drop the -addy and give it to me any way he wanted. Even without the Miu-Miu.
Of course, the goodies are on his twitter: @paddyo'brian86

ReplyDeleteI liked that. It was a complete surprise, actually...not what I expected. Maybe that's why I liked it! And, of course, the added treat...well.... XOXO
Heh
DeleteI know right? I think we got used to slightly-mopey, heartbroken Sam.
XOXO
Well...that was not at all what I expected. As for Mr. O'Brian. That just goes without saying. Afterall, my fantasies keep my heart beating.
ReplyDeleteYay!
DeleteI'm all for surprises. And Mr. O'Brian IS a treat. Our fantasies are sometimes the best part, dahhleenk.
XOXO
I'm not quite sure what I thought of it. I didn't hate it. Definitely out of the box for Sam Smith. Although I've never been a huge fan of his for some reason but Kim Petras I love her. Overall I really like the vibe of the video though. For some odd reason I liked Sam's voice better when he did the cover of the Donna Summer song.
ReplyDeleteHahaha
DeleteEverybody is kind of confused with it. Love that. And I did not know much about Kim Petras until now. And I'm fascinated. The vibe is very burlesque-Fosse. I'm here for it.
And I positively loved that Donna Summer cover!!!
XOXO

ReplyDeleteThis was so good. Kind of a new direction for them. And I’ll take Mr. O’Brian any day of the week and twice on Sunday for good measure. What could be more unholy than that?
XOXO 👨🏼❤️💋👨🏽
Wasn't it cool?
DeleteAnd Paddy is yummy. And unholy. And I want some.
XOXO
Sam is okay, but you should know by now that I muchly prefer baritones.
ReplyDeleteHahaha
DeleteYou know what a deep voice does to me, though....
XOXO
I think I liked the visuals more than the tune, and yes, that means the visuals of Paddy. I recently heard Sam's duet with Kelly Clarkson on Breakaway and really liked that; this song you posted doesn't seem to fit Sam well.
ReplyDeleteLMAOOOO
DeleteWell, Paddy was here to give us an eyeful, dear. And I also heard him and Kelly dueting. Damn, Gina!
And I think we're used to other Sam. Maybe this is the new one...?
XOXO
I think Sam is so sexy, without even opening his mouth. I checked: my love of men and pornography (and, I believe, your blog) had already prompted me to follow Paddy on both IG and twitter.
ReplyDeleteSame!
DeleteI loved Sam in black t-shirt at the body shop! I also liked the MC Sam. And following Paddy does have advantages, you'll see!
XOXO
Paddy is everywhere! As is Sam... I hope Sam never stops. His voice is amazing. A great successor to the throne left in George Michael's wake.
ReplyDeleteI love Sam.
DeleteReally. That voice! I would love to know what you think about Sam as a singer, BTW.
XOXO
