Louise 'Naked'

Well, that post title should get me a few more search hits, at least...

Sometimes it's tempting to try and sum up a song in one sentence. Were I to do that here it would be: This song rhymes "sensual" with "sexual".

...OK, but as this post is now two days late, you'll probably be wanting a bit more than that. Well, OK: the background for all who don't know is that this was that Louise Nurding as she then was (perhaps this is why she preferred to work under her first name - I've tagged this entry under the name she's better known by) had been a member of RnB-flavoured girl group Eternal for their first album and six singles, but was then spun off as a solo artist. 'Naked' was the title track of her first album and third of twelve consecutive Top 20 singles. Those rhymes do seem to encapsulate the nature of the song - the sort of subject matter and the level of lyrical brilliance involved. I don't really think you were expected to listen to the words though... It's certainly rather raunchier than anything Eternal would have attempted.
