I knew there was someone out there who shared my affection for this simple yet absolutely charming pop song. Yes, an innocent girl with nothing on her mind but awaiting the arrival of her hard working man so they can go out dancing, play all night and make love IS the ultimate male fantasy. But it may be, and dare I say, should be a female fantasy as well. Your article emphasizes the sexuality, and I get that, but I tend to immerse myself into the sentimental, youthful innocence the song. The ‘world’ created by this tune is one of simple, joyful, playful, young, unadulterated love. And in just 3 minutes and 20 seconds it makes our actual world a beautiful place where life is truly worth living!
