Reflecting on dance-pop songs from 2005 built around really silly innuendos
The difference between Black-Eyed Peas’ “My Humps” (which I’ve written about before) and Kelis’s “Milkshake” is, of course, that “Milkshake”, while ridiculous, is also pretty damn sexy — whereas “My Humps” just leaves you with a “What the fuck…?” feeling so profound it’s difficult to shake, even years later.
Having said that, a sure-fire way to strip any song of its sexiness is by mashing it up with the theme from GHOSTBUSTERS. This is especially true if the mashup works really, really well.
Enjoy.
