Is This The Finest Music Vid evah? (The Village People, "Sex Over the Phone")

Don't wanna be alone
you just pick up the phone.
Hello, fantasy hotline?
What's your credit card number?
69667113
. "Your phone number?" "7 51-61 77".
What's your fantasy?
I just wanna speak to a very hot one
. "We'll call you back".

Sex over the phone - You know I like it.
Sex over the phone - You know I need it.
Sex over the phone - Come on and give it to me
baby.
Sex over the phone.

This is the part I hate
why do they make you wait?
Here's where the fevers rise enough to cross my eyes.
They can be short or tall
they can be white or black.
I don't care
not at all
long as they call me back.
Hello?
Hello, baby, it's me, your fantasy
.
What's your name?
'Who cares? Just care about my body".
What do you look like?
Hot, I look very hot
.

Sex over the phone - In the morning.
Sex over the phone - In the afternoon.
Sex over the phone - Sometimes late in the evening.
Sex over the phone.

When I want to take a ride I don't have to go outside.
I don't need to dress if I'm feeling lazy.
I can lie there in my bed painting pictures in my head.
I just touch my princess and I go crazy.
If you are feelin' hot and after all who's not?
Right now I've got a cure to help your temperature.
All that you need's a dime and just a little time.
A pay phone on the street can help you beat the heat.

Sex over the phone - It's so fulfilling.
Sex over the phone - They're always willing.
Sex over the phone - Don't break connection
baby.
Sex over the phone.

It's loving that you need
satisfaction guaranteed.
It won't cost that much for you to start talking.
It's a very small amount on your credit card account.
Come on
let your fingers do the walking.
Sex over the phone - you know I like it. . . .
Sex over the phone - Sex over the phone - Sex over the phone -
Sex over the phone - Sex over the phone - Sex over the phone.

The best part is where the two white dudes hold phones up to each other's ears at arm's length, like they're attacking each other with them.

Alex, if you want to do more of those, I for one would not object. And remember you've got a ton more in that link I made to choose from. ;-)

The cowboy is the scariest motherfucker ever. If I saw him on the street, I'd cover my ass and run.

I feel a lot less threatened now I know they fantasize about women.

― StanM (StanM), Sunday, 9 April 2006 09:28 (eighteen years ago) link

Couldn't believe the part halfway through where they reveal that they're talking to women...it's kind of deflating, cos up until then, it was sublime. I was actually quite shocked. Surely no-one can have taken this for a heterosexual video...surely?

But it's all the same woman, and none of our heroes notices!

― StanM (StanM), Sunday, 9 April 2006 17:01 (eighteen years ago) link

I've got it! It's subliminal sociological commentary!

These five archetypical American working heroes are all fooled by one slut of a woman, who just changes into their fantasies for the duration of one phone call, hereby subliminally implying that Women Are Sluts And Can't Be Trusted.

Ouch, we been brainwashed!

There's actually another version of this song where a man answers the phone rather than a woman. Somehow that doesn't seem as hilarious, though.

i just watched this for the first time in a few months. good thing my boss isn't around.

Right here. The thing I was looking for wasn't here, but I found it.

Ah well, it's returned to the new answers board, as it ought.

VP afficionados may enjoy this from their New Romantic Zombie period

Hidden under all the fol de rol there's a rather good song here which someone should revive.

This video made me happier in 2006 than any actual music from the year itself.
