So, without further ado, in the 25^th edition of Beaming with Pride ️‍ (2025), we highlight “If Jesus saw what we did last night” performed by Cloudy June.

“If Jesus saw what we did last night…” Uh-oh… this sounds sketchy, Cloudy June. The feminist and queer musician (she identifies as bisexual) continues singing in the chorus of “If Jesus saw what we did last night”, “He’d be comin’ back to life.” Holy shit! She is referencing the resurrection of Jesus, of course. The other miracle cited? “He’d turn water into wine.” Spirituality is prevalent throughout “If Jesus saw what we did last night”, though the most devout and pious may cry foul. I doubt Cloudy June cares. The Berlin singer wrote “Jesus” alongside Cy and Maarten Paul. Philip Strand and Paul produced it.

Sex is the modus operandi of “If Jesus saw what we did last night.” No shit, Sherlock! “When you touch me there, it’s a miracle / Biblical affair,” Cloudy June sings in the first verse. Damn! In the second verse, she asserts, “[I] Can’t escape the feelin’ it’s physical / You’re my prophecy, baby.” Yep, that is a big, heaping dose of blasphemy! In the chorus, she describes their body as holy, claiming, “I’m floatin’ like an angel / You brought me down to my knees.” Amen… I mean, SACRILEDGE! Ultimately, “If Jesus saw what we did last night” is fun and stirs the pot. Cloudy June sings beautifully, expressing her sufficiently and unapologetically expressing her desires. Sex-positive, she speaks to being unashamed to be with who you choose and ‘do’ what you choose. Backed by a dark, minor key, sleekly produced backdrop, “Jesus” sounds celestial… in a dark, twisted way. I repent in advance !
