Song Review
This song came to me via an ex-boyfriend who, unfortunately, listens to really cool music. Thus I am forced to keep in contact with him, or perhaps that’s just an excuse. The Sounds are a Swedish alternative/indie-rock band who have released 3 full-length studio albums since their formation in 1999. Rock and Roll can be found on the band’s debut album Living in America, released in 2002. On an interesting side-note, Dave Grohl can be seen wearing a Sounds t-shirt in the Foo Fighters music video for the 2003 single Times Like These.
1, 2, 3, 4
No, I want more
5, 6, 7
It’s not OK
How come you taste so good?
This time I’m really hooked
It’s half past ten, it’s getting late
But the night is young and I can’t wait
You know I like it loud
You should know me by now
Something sweet or something strong
Seems like love no longer can turn me on
Like boy need girl and girl need boy
Got a nasty habit called rock’n'roll
But you don’t know what it’s like
I’ve done things you’ve only dreamed about
More than once or twice
Tt keeps me up at night
Jump up, bubble up, what’s in store?
Bryan looked for love, but I want more
I found another beat, there’s no time for sleep
Something sweet and something strong
Seems like love no longer can turn me on
Like the girls in suits and those pretty boys
I gave my heart to rock’n'roll
To rock’n'roll
Rock’n'roll [x2]
Oh, oh..
So you can call the police
I’m sorry ’bout my manners, but you see,
I’m a bit drunk as you can see
I bet you would like to undress me
Something sweet and something strong
Seems like love no longer can turn me on
Like boy need girl and girl need boy
Got a nasty habit called rock’n'roll
Something sweet and something strong
Seems like love no longer can turn me on
Like the girls in suits and those pretty boys
I gave my heart to rock’n'roll
Rock’n'roll [x2]
Oh, oh…
