Why did Frank Zappa sing 'My balls feel like a pair of maracas?' What on earth do the boy band Blue mean by 'You're dancing real close/It's real slow? You're making it hard for me'? And why does Prince want to do it 'In you mama's car/Naked in a cadillac'? Sex has always enjoyed a close relationship with pop and rock music, and in this bawdy, witty book, Howard Johnson collects the 200 Rudest Songs Ever, be they Rolling Stones, James Brown, Aerosmith (Big Ten Inch, indeed!), Destiny's Child or East 17. From Dean Martin's 'The Naughty Lady of Shady Lane' to Dinah Washington's, ahem, 'Big Long Sliding Thing'. Learn how some of the biggest names in music have, over the years, disgraced themselves by giving voice to their carnal desires. And don't even mention metal bands.
