The Bee Gees - How Deep is Your Love

Not like anyone asked, but I find this to be one of the most seductive songs in the world. How is it that I find a slightly lullaby-esque song sung by a bunch of bearded falsettos uber sensual and, dare I say, naughty?! It’s all in the lyrics.

You come to me on a summer breeze, keep me warm in your love and then softly leave

And it’s me you need to show…how deep is your love?

The concept of a woman floating in, soft and beautiful, making love to someone, and then drifting away is such a warm, sensual picture…I think sheer white, long hair, the small of daffodils. Then the demand of “and it’s me you need to show” followed by the haughty question of “how deep is your love?” is pure S&M. The submissive, who lays around endlessly waiting for the indifferent lover, is really the one in control: making demands, telling his lover to prove herself to him. And how do you think one proves one’s love to someone? It’s delicious.

“I feel you touch me in the pouring rain…”

The Bee Gees are legends for a reason.
