Current Hit: “That’s What I Want” by Lil’ Nas X
Linked to: “I Want Your Love” by Bernard Edwards and Nile Rodgers/1979
Because: Desire, and the quest for love, is, was, and always will be a music constant, in all its forms and permutations. Sometimes it’s elegant and sophisticated, sometimes it’s rough and rowdy; in this case, Lil Nas’s brash in-your-face delivery obscures his plea: “I want someone to love me.”
“That’s What I Want” is fast moving and up-tempo,with a sing-song delivery.
