Hello Lovers & Ladies, welcome to a strange edition of both Throwback & Tappin’ That Azz Thursday. Now, usually these are broken up into two, but I was listening to a song that was a cover; And that cover was also of a song that can be deemed ‘Tappin’ That Azz Worthy.Now since we are also in Throwback mode, I’m going to take us back on a little trip to 1992. Ah the early 90s, how memorable those were. It was the year in which everyone was excited. Mariah Carey released her Unplugged CD, Nirvana Debuted, and Milli Vanilli was ordered to pay up (Poor guys, but Blame It On The Rain). What was also very exciting was singer/songwriter Sophie B. Hawkins.
Sophie B. Hawkins was an up and coming musician when she released her debut album ‘Tongues and Tails’. The album was critically acclaimed, and even garnered Hawkins with a Grammy nomination. However, not all were pleased.
Released in 1992, the main single from the album caused such a stir amongst the public, that the original video was banned for its high erotic content. Written about a woman being in love with another woman, this also didn’t help matters. At the time, when it wasn’t fashionable to be homosexual, this was all still very taboo, therefore the haters came out to play in full force. However, one still cannot deny the power of the song, to make you wanna just go tap that azz no matter who you are lusting after! 'Damn, I Wish I Was Your Lover', now ;o)
So here it is, your Throwback to Tap That Azz Song… Enjoy, I know I will ;o)
