Content. It was really poppy and catchy, which is just ironic -- since Just Here... is one of Adam's catchiest songs, IMO.
This song is called "Get You All Up," (go ahead, laugh!) and the lyric is...
"Shake me up and see what comes out, out of my [something] and into your...." and I think the last word is "down," but I'm not sure.
I COULD be wrong, and I probably am, but oooooh boy. It's like a horny songwriter conspiracy.

Based on the sample, I'd have to say that Adam possesses more lyrical prowess when it comes to that subject.
I love the baseball caps, too! Although, I think he'd look extra divine in a Yankee hat. (Sorry, you knew that was coming.)
Aw he looks so cute! Just what I needed after a bad day!
Yes, he does. Some of Mano's lyrics were probably written when he was in college, or, at least they sound that way. His music is still a lot of fun, though. Adam would never write "Were you really that upset when I was feelin' up your padded bra?"
... I'm never going to stop thinking that's funny.
I was telling Fantab before that I've now changed my mind, and I hope Raul never writes music.
Adam would look good in that hat -- I'm not a huge sports fan, but just color-wise.
I enjoy the pictures of Mano in a Yankees hat.

Haha, no, only lines like "my laptop crashes" and "I'll only make you cry, because I'm just that kind of guy!"
I kid. I like that Mano apparently added the adjective "padded."
Also, Raul seems like he'd be oddly good writing music -- at least lyrically. Although, some of the most articulate people aren't good songwriters, so...
The padded bra line is hysterical.
I feel like he'd be really poetic, because not only is he very articulate, but he has this knack for describing things in a really beautiful way, sometimes in a way you may not expect, but you hear it and you find that it really does work.
I just... if he hopped on the sexual innuendo bandwagon too, I might have to take many cold showers.
I think good songwriters may or may not be articulate, but what they must have is a willingness to express things that a lot of people would think are too personal or too silly or too obvious to say. Since articulate people tend to over-think, they are apt to censor out all that good stuff before they ever get it down.

I apparently missed your point. Yeah, I'm sure if there's one thing you dread in the world, it's sexual innuendo from Raul!
This all reminds me of how I thought the line in Adam's "Mesmerized" was "she makes me horny, makes me crazy" for the longest time. Hah.
Oh, I dread it SO much. hah. I don't think I want to know what he'd write about, if he went there.
re: Mesmerized... seriously?! hahahha. I never really cared to figure out what the word was, but I never thought it was "horny." What is it?

I think it would be relatively tame, considering frankness about his sexuality probably isn't his forte...
Yeah, anyway.
I think it's "warm"? But I totally hear an "h" sound! I love the song, though. Some of the lyrics are sophomoric, but it's cute and very much "with love."
I thought it was "warm." I like how the melody of "she keeps me mesmerized" reinforces the lyric so well.
Yeah. It seems like he wrote it to be sweet, not to show off his talent.
I imagine it being sort of... not at all forward, but with innuendo that IF you pick up, would be pretty heavy.
I love that I project so much sexuality onto him, probably more than he really actually calls for. heh.
Alright, I'm writing up my detailed account of my week. I hate cluttering up boards with things that aren't really relevant. I also hate always scrolling past things, so I've decided to post it on my myspace. For those of you who feel an account of my week in the Dominican is not important enough to create a myspace, but you still want to hear about it, let me know and I'll copy and paste it in PM format.

I agree. The way Adam introduces it is cute. "I was looking for some inspiration and decided why not write it about someone that I love?"
Yes, a cryptic code of sorts (re: Raul's lyrics). I'd actually like to see some Raul-written poetry. I'm not a poetry fan, really, but I imagine that he'd be quite good at it.
I'll check it out on your MySpace, Sarah.
Sarah, PM me. I don't want to get a Myspace.
He could just write in Spanish. I wouldn't be averse to that.
Now that I've figured out how to send PM's again, (sorry guys), how does one post an photobucket album for others to view?
Broadway Legend Joined: 12/31/69
Sarah, it sounds like you had a great time! I laughed at the story about the staff hitting on you -- poor you.
Not sure about Photobucket. Sorry.
For people to view an entire album you need to change your settings to make it public.
The only way you can do that is if your entire photobucket is public. You can't just make one album public, I tried to figure it out a few weeks ago and couldn't.
Sounds like a lot of fun, Sarah, thanks for writing it up! That ice cube game sounds thrilling! Actually, it sounds like something my sister and I would do when we're bored. And too much sex on the beach is never a bad thing...I wanna see the video!
I want to go to the beach. I wish my beach house had free drinks, but I'm pretty sure my teetotaling family wouldn't be thrilled with me spending the whole week smashed.
Hee, I'll see what I can do.
Now that I've made the album public what do I do?
The ice cube game definitely sounds like something that my brother and I would do.
I'm happy that you had such a good time!
