In the 46th edition of Midnight Heat
(2023), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind βOh Happy Dayβ by Surinamese, Netherlands-based musician, XILLAN.
Ah, bring on Midnight Heat
! Wait β it is not usually hot at midnight! Well, it is steaming hot
at midnight when it comes to this naughty, innuendo and sex-laden column featuring songs intended for nighttime. Yeah, we are talking about that after dark, bedroom boom $hiβ , ya dig? These unapologetic records often raises both eyebrows and temperature alike. Woo! In the 46th edition of Midnight Heat (2023), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind,
βOh Happy Dayβ by
XILLAN.
Typically, when you think of
βOh Happy Dayβ, it is the beloved, gospel classic by
The Edwin Hawkins Singers
. In the hands of Surinamese, Netherlands based musician
XILLAN (Xillan Macrooy), however, his
βOH HAPPY DAYβ is NOT a gospel record. Jesus is not involved with this one! In XILLANβs hands, βOh Happy Dayβ is sexual β ooh-la-la. The self-described musician, writer, and storyteller proudly asserts, repeatedly, βI fucked my shame away / Oh happy day.β WOO! Some church folks might take offense to this happy day, one that involves the f-bomb, especially in a sexual context
. But, if you are open-minded, you see both a bigger message/picture, as well as a marvelous sex song!
XILLAN is liberated on βOh Happy Day,β a fact that should not be neglected. Sure, he is radiating that Midnight Heat
, but he has also rid of shame. In an IG post leading up to the release of βOH HAPPY DAY,β he highlights the toxicity of shame. Shame is huge in the LGBTQ+
community, with internalized homophobia, as well as homophobia in general. Sometimes, that shame comes within ones family and friends. In this aesthetically pleasing gem that titillates given XILLANβs declaration, as well as his sexy voice (including a ripe falsetto) and the sweet, ear-catching production (Macrooy and
Bastian Benjamin), XILLAN embraces pleasure sans shame. Basically, heβs ridding of stigmas and what anybody else thinks in favor of living β enjoying the pleasures of life and love without constraints. Ah, what a sweet little LGBTQ
/Midnight Heat
combo!
