Physical (Adam and the Ants cover)

I love Adam Ant, but this song is really good, They did justice to it. I think it's about how he feels for Adam ant.

Haha, this is such a big fucking middle finger to TVT Records it's not even funny.

At 0:29 or so, Trent whispers in the background, "Eat your heart out, Steve".

"Steve" is Steve Gottlieb, the president of TVT. He was the source of Trent's rage on all of Broken. As you know, this is a cover song, and a "hidden track". They had to go through a bunch of copyright bullshit, and basically Steve thought Trent couldn't pull it off.

Adam Ant does this on the original as well, and is basically a middle finger Do-It records.

"The Adam Ant version of "Physical" also has whispering, most notable at the beginning he says "Eat Your Heart Out, Do-It. You can't do it, can ya?". Adam Ant was referring to Do-It Records, a label they were on."

I don't understand the gaps in understanding on this song. I saw a comment saying he clearly wants the physical, but then complains that SHE is too physical, when that isn't what's happening here.

Yes, he wants the physical, he talks about the physical, but the physical is only half of this situation. This song ia a clear ask for an emotional connection, and this includes sex. He's seeing the sexual relationship as more—intimacy, sharing vulnerabilities, stripping down. He wants everything from her. But she's too physical. He sees sex as part of an emotional connection. She sees sex as ...sex. He needs more, and she's not giving that to him.

Songs about sex, easy

this was origionally an adam ant song.

i laugh every time i hear trent say "i wanna twist and twist and shout." funny stuff.

only one person commented on this. This song kicks ass.

I heard somewhere he says, "I want your rough ass baby." This is a great fucking song.. Trent is so fucking awesome.

This.. I find weird coming from a mans point of view... To me it sounds like this. Trent wants to get serious with someone. He wants to have commitment. His heart already belongs to her. But she's too physical. She wants only a sexual relationship. Even though it also sounds like he hasn't had sex with her yet. So that also led me to think.. "Too physical" Physical is just another word for "real." Maybe he thinks he doesn't stand a chance with this woman because he sees himself as a fake.(Though I could never see Trent as viewing himself in that way. But the song isn't necesarilly about him either.) Or even if not a fake, just not standing a chance.

i think its really the guy who's too physical. this girl is deadly, and when the guy thinks about her he knows he wants to be with her emotionally. then he actually sees her and cant think about anything but sex. they have a relationship based on sex and he wants more, she does too, but he cant show his emotions to her because he is so fucking turned on whenever they're together

This song oozes sex. I don't think love or romance really has a place in the relationship being addressed, judging by the verses. I find there to be some sarcasm in the chorus, or perhaps saying the girl wears him out sexually. I've never heard the original, but this version rocks - it's just so damn sexy.
