“They got my favorite lotion 🧴 here / Something in a hotel I admire,” 🎙 Tyler Childers sings in the first verse of 🎵 “Ever Lovin’ Hand”.  The country singer/songwriter continues, “I got the pictures that you sent me / And how they fill me with desire.” 😈 Yes, on the sixth track from his 2019 album, 💿 Country Squire, Childers is singing about the m-word: masturbation 🧴 🍆 💦.  There have been plenty of songs that allude to self-love, though it’s a rarity in country music.  I mean, usually, we’re talking about beer, fishing, hunting, tractors, and – wait for it – TRUCKS! To be fair, while “Ever Lovin’ Hand” commences incredibly sexually, as Childers is excited by having his own hotel room that he’s going to burn down given his lust 😈, that lust is directed toward his significant other in all likelihood – he’s been married since 2015.

So, that considered, alongside some of the sweeter moments of “Ever Lovin’ Hand,” it takes some of the TMI out of the record.  STILL, eyebrows remain raised in the chorus as Childers sings, “Lord whenever you may be / When you’re reaching for the fruit / I’ll pray fondly you think of me / It gets so hard out on the road /… I have got you on my mind / And my ever lovin’ hand.” The chorus ends up being dedicated and sweet, as well as horny AF. Furthermore, see verse two: “Leavin’ me to clean the mess / That you clearly helped to cause.” Use your imagination – much like Childers does… Tyler Childers is a brilliant musician – a great singer and songwriter.  Hearing him be bolder, rawer, and more honest than many of his counterparts is incredibly admirable.  Furthermore, cleverly penning a song like 🎵 “Ever Lovin’ Hand” that references self-stimulation in the name of true, dedicated love – missing that special someone – in incredibly clever. The Midnight Heat 🕛 🔥 is sufficiently satisfied!
