Was most looking forward to this one from preview the clips. I like it.

This is becoming my favorite. It's fun to steering-wheel drum, and I love the guitars during SA's rap, especially the little fill in between the first half and the second half. And then when Nick comes in singing and you sorta think it's gonna slow down, and then it just jumps right back into it? Love it. My only two gripes are pretty silly. 1 - The snare fills into the chorus are cut short the third time, and it's straight up Bon Jovi. 2 - During the chorus, I think they could have saved the "Showdown" line until the last line of the chorus, and it would have been pretty sweet: "I feel that somethin''s 'bout to go down/don't say I didn't warn ya; something something something/It's gonna be a showdown," (or something) is what I want it to be. But I don't much know about writing lyrics, so like I said, a pretty silly gripe and doesn't ruin the song for me at all.

The unit I'm teaching my students this week in Music Appreciation is lyric analysis. This is the song we're doing today.

The unit I'm teaching my students this week in Music Appreciation is lyric analysis. This is the song we're doing today.

Top three things this song is about, according to 7th graders.

3. "Sex, obv."
2. "A really bad boxer."
1. "Winning only one game the whole season, and it's the last one."

7th graders are the worst, but sometimes they're pretty funny.

lol sex?

I told them the line "Gonna get it on, yeah," does not mean what they want it to mean. They did not believe me, I guess.
