ourishment is important, particularly breakfast.  Breakfast has been called the most important meal of the day.  So, what better, hearty breakfast than one that involves the universal three-letter-word – SEX.  🎙 Mike Taveira delivers a delicious, titillating pop single with 🎵 “Sex for Breakfast”.  While he does awesome getting us ‘hot and bothered,’ so does his partner in crime, featured guest 🎙 Allie X (Alexandra Hughes).

“Sex for Breakfast” is as good as advertised.  Featuring slick production, 🎛 Sky Cocco and 🎛 Jordan Palmer ‘put in work.’  Cocco is also credited as a writer alongside Taveira, Hughes, and 🎼✍ Paul Mauer.  Vocally, Mike sings smoothly, showcasing a marvelous tone.  Even so, that doesn’t keep him from delivering a bite, early on, mind you: “How the fuck can we be friends when all we wanna do is / Fuck it if it happens, we already do it.” Woo! Following those eyebrow raising bombs, Taveira backs off the profanity, but keeps it sexy (we wouldn’t have it any other way).  I like the way Allie X both complements and contrasts on the second verse.  She gets her ear-catching lyrics in too, even if she’s not as ‘salty’ as Mike: “It’s a physically sadistic state, I feel so manic / And this body talk, it got so rude.”  Of course, the crème de la crème – the centerpiece – is the chorus:

“Sex for breakfast
Aah
If you want it, if you want it, if you want it like that
You can’t wait for a second
Aah
Got you coming, got you coming, got you coming right back.”

Coming, huh? Gotta love sexual innuendo!
