nnuendo? More like full-on sexual vibes! Welcome to After Dark ๐ ๐, a column featuring songs that are best suited for nighttime, specifically, the bedroom.ย Many of the records featured here raise eyebrows, as well as the temperature! These After Dark tunes focus on the universal three-letter word: ย SEX. The dark records gracing After Dark are old and new alike, with all genres of music welcome.ย In the 48th edition of After Dark (2022), we explore the naughty, risquรฉ, & sexual vibes behind, ๐ต โOops (Oh My)โ by ๐ Tweet.Theme & Lyrics โ
โFrom his body, so buttery brown, and tantalizing / You woulda thought I needed helpโฆโ Well, da-yum he sounds like a stud! So, ๐ Tweet, dear, tell us more!ย โFrom this feeling that I felt / So shook I had to catch my breath.โ Ooh gurrlll, you got us SHOOK cuz you shook! Clearly, Ms. Charlene Keys is feeling โsome type of wayโ on her 2002 breakout hit, ๐ต โOops (Oh My).โ The ๐ Timbaland-produced โOops (Oh My)โ is one of the best contemporary R&B records of the new millennium.ย Why you ask? Well, make NO MISTAKE about it, โOopsโ features catchy lyrics, stellar production, and of course, ๐ Missy Elliott.
Of course, it is the theme and lyrics that make โOops (Oh My)โ simultaneously famous and infamous. โOops, there goes my shirt up over my head, Oh my / Oops, there goes my skirt droppin’ to my feet, Oh my.โ โOh my,โ indeed, Tweet, more like, holy shit! Those lyrics are sexual โ scandalous!!!ย That said, itโs the rest of the chorus that really strikes a chord:
โOoh, some kinda touch caressing my legs, Oh my
Ooh, Iโm turning red
Who could this be?โ
Iโm asking myself the same thing Tweet! Are you really Charlene Keys, and what did you do with her? The reason why a final couple of lines solidify the After Dark ๐ ๐ vibes are thanks to perceived female masturbation.ย Yes, guys, โtheyโ do that too! Even though most of us label this as a record about private, solo time (hehe), according to Bustle, thatโs not what she was getting at. Buzzkill, I say, or more like bullshit! You be the judge, though.
Final Thoughts ๐ญย
What more is there really to say? Once ๐ต โOops (Oh My)โ by Tweet became associated with the m-word, masturbation, that was it.ย Weโll never think about this ๐ฟ Southern Hummingbird classic any other way.
