Funny story about this song. For some reason, when I heard this song, it stuck with me as one to listen to while writing the scenes of Anderson Stables that take place at horse shows. It was, and still is, a “competition song” in my mind. Then, after listening to it about a hundred times, I actually paid attention to the lyrics and came to what should not have been such a sudden realization: “This song is about sex.”

It’s still wired into my brain as a competition scene song and I doubt that will change.
