Default Like or Dislike: Sistah Huhnay

Hmmmmm. This song has very dated music. But I still like it a lot! The lyrics aren't her most poetic, but it's so quick & upbeat that I just can't help myself. I do like the following lines:

"Nobody's right, baby
All the time
And a fool never knows what he's leaving behind
So take some time to know the real story
Cause a soul that's true is your ride to glory
Don't let that golden hair get in your way , baby"

and
"Come back solemn stranger
It's your last chance
She's almost gone, now
And she'll go fast like a jet plane
And then fast like a star stream
She'll hit you with a fury
Whispering the words one more time, baby"


Yup, that's right. I like "FAST like a jet plane and then FAST like a star stream" and I don't care who knows it!

I love the way she says "do you understand the word pleasure" too. And "Sistah! Sistah!" in the background is priceless.

Live - I don't know how well this would go over live. Maybe in '86 while she was coked up, but not today. She wouldn't give it the "pow" that it requires, I don't think.

OK, peeps. Dig in. Let's see how long it takes someone to say it's about her vagina.

I love it - I love to dance to it - I love to vacuum the house naked in only Stevie boots while dancing to it

Seriously, I love RAL and think it was, as one reviewer said, a conscious effort to lighten up. I think she took risks with that record and this song is one of them.

I thought for awhile it was about heroine, which was the figurative sister - but I now think it is about her brother and her relationship.

I could say lots of reasons why I like it, but for right this second, I'll put the most important one:

It's the only Stevie Nicks song that makes me do that "fast shoulder pop/head swivel/janet jackson/bust a move" dance right when it starts.

And that's no small distinction. It definitely helps me make up my mind.

I Can't Wait inspires a related dance, but not exactly the same one.

Ie. - I LOVE SISTAH HONEY!

I love this song. The first time I heard it, I was like "whoa" and kept replaying it. It'll always be a favorite!

The woman had a hard time singing the word "bitch." Does anyone actually think she's singing about a cooter? I certainly don't.

I LOVE this song - it's just so fun to sing along with and dance around to

And no - I don't think she'd sing about a cooter
