Mike Taveira, 1982 Virago | Song Review

Pop singer/songwriter Mike Taveira brings the heat with his brief but exhilarating single, “1982 Virago” ️.  

It is easy to be taken with Mike Taveira – he’s a handsome fella .  Of course, there’s much more to the pansexual musician than those dashing good looks.  Taveira is quite talented and deserves far more attention.  Once again, on his single, “1982 Virago”, which arrives post- Bloom All Night (EP), Taveira wows with his musicianship.  While the song doesn’t even reach two-and-a-half minutes in duration, he sufficiently brings the heat – and it is damn hot! “1982 Virago” was written alongside Carly Paige and produced by Hubby.

“You said baby let’s take a ride / Now I’ve got you locked in between my thighs…” Ooh-wee, Mike ! That’s the type of sugar honey iced tea that Mike Taveira is on.  For some context, a Virago is a Yamaha motorcycle .  It’s no secret that motorcycles are incredibly fast, exhilarating vehicles, something that this song captures.  While the Virago gets love, intact with a colorful, fresh, electronic pop backdrop, Taveira is less concerned with that bike and more concerned with matters of the heart .  Of course, the best love songs – falling in or out of love or breaking up – embrace the figurative and metaphorical.  I say all of that to say that Mr. Taveira concocts another surefire winner.  His voice is on-point, the production slick, driven by its rhythmic lines, and the songwriting entertaining and tuneful.  Hot guy, killer song – what more can you ask for?
