This is a song that should have been all over the radio but was probably just too good to get the airplay. It is a plaintive love song without the plaintive tone.
Lyrics are sweetly evocative. The sense of what being madly, happily, in love is and how everything else fades in importance (alas, even if only for a little while) is capatured in a few lines:
"We spent summers out beyond the bay
You said these are such perfect days
that if the bomb drops baby
I want to be the last to know"
It also has a nice revealory ending. Give this a few listens and it will make it's way under your skin like the very best pop music does.
Inspired by Dre's (real or perceived?) betrayal by his former NWA band mate Easy E. Add to that a few choice shots at the talentless Luke of 2 Live Crew. The anger is visceral and palpable. Some "gansta" hip-hop seems like commerically inspired posing, but the threat of violence in this song is authentic and chilling. This song finds it's way into my mind more often than I really want to admit. Then again, if people stopped pi**ing me of, it would not make my playlist as often as it does...
