On the 31st edition of After Dark (2021), we explore the naughty and utterly sexual vibes behind, โSweatโ by Zayn.ย

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 Like Controversial Tunes ๐๐ถ, the records featured here raise eyebrows.ย The difference between the songs of CONTROVERSY and DARK? These songs specifically focus on the universal topic of S-E-X. The dark records gracing After Dark are old and new alike, with all genres of music welcome.ย On the 31st edition of After Dark, we explore the naughty and utterly sexual vibes behind, ๐ต โSweatโ by ๐ Zayn.Theme & Lyrics โ
โOnly one thing on my mind / Only one thing on your mind.โ Let me guess what that one thing is ๐ Zayn! As youโd expect from those excerpted lyrics from ๐ต โSweat,โ the pop star and his girlfriend have sex in mind.ย Need more evidence thatโs โSweatโ isnโt about the sweat you get after a gym workout? Here, my friends, is the centerpiece, the chorus:
โOh, drippinโ down your body like gold
Slowly steaminโ up the windows
My skin on your skin, again and again
Sweat for me, sweat for me
Oh, love it when I tear off your clothes
Slowly steaminโ up the windows
My skin on your skin, again and again
Sweat for me, sweat for me.โ
Hmm, perhaps ย ๐ฟ Nobody is Listening, but Zayn earns my undivided attention on this sexy joint, tailor made for After Dark ๐ ๐! The sex is what draws you in most, but thereโs also some musicianship on display. The funky cues from the 80s sound perfectly at home in 2021.ย Vocals are Zaynโs calling card, which he nails here, but also exhibits ample personality.
Final Thoughts ๐ญ
Too bad Zayn didnโt release a music video ๐ถ๐ผ for โSweat.โย Can you imagine how hot that would be? ย The good news is that โSweatโ is hot without the visual to illustrate it. ย Thereโs no โFucking and fightingโ like ๐ต โPILLOWTALKโ, but the latter is covered without being explicitly stated, right?
