The Internet – They Say (Ft. Tay Walker)

You know those little labels of warning the pharmacist puts on those medicine bottles? Well, Purple Naked Ladies The Internet‘s debut LP should come with a few. Particularly for the song “They Say” Ft. Tay Walker. As a matter of fact let me just send the Surgeon General a letter right now. But seriously, Purple Naked Ladies (I love typing that) is a debut to be proud of. So, I take my pork pie hat off to Syd the Kyd (Sydney Bennett) and Matt Martians (Matthew Martin) for shuffling the deck of the OFWGKTA Tarot cards and dealing such a splendid first hand. Although it is not the blowout album I was expecting, there is still good stuff to be had. The anchor of the album is obvious, the delirious and frenetic “Cocaine.” But, the centerpiece is the big soft plush-toy carnival prize, “They Say.” This song has gently swaying hips, radiant skin, a small sexy mole right beneath the collarbone, and piercing almond-shaped eyes. I digress. (Clearing throat) In future projects I’d love to see The Internet get a bit more unhinged and push the envelope. Syd the Kid, your voice has the sex appeal, now make it more burlesque. Take me to the alternate realm I know ya’ll dreaming about in bong-burping technicolor. Peace.
