Food plus Sex equals Nature
'10%' (3 mins. 12 secs.)
The Pleasure Bombs were a Berlin band in the 1990s that played in clubs and eventually to large stadiums in the northeastern US. One of their main tracks, '10%', has great social and political lyrics that capture the age and still have relevance today. A growing bass line leading into a slamming drum beat and an overarching melodic chorus, '10%' is one of those tunes that shows the band's talents from the start. Charles Harris's pithy, edgy lyrics followed by an uninhibited skat lift the soul and make you want to celebrate something. Anything.
Simply a great, cool, joyous tune.
