Unbelievable that there's so little comment - and it looks like there's only one every two years!
The title comes from a highly sexual Japanese film (English language title: "In the Realm of the Senses"), which is based on the true story of a Geisha who falls in love with a customer and has an intense relationship with him - it's a very difficult watch!
The song was written by English funkster Chaz Jankel. I think he only used the film title as something of a joke and to emphasise the intensity of the love he's expressing.
Jankel was Ian Dury's song-writing collaborator, adding the funky riffs to Jury's acerbically witty lyrics - if you're unaware of them, you have a treat in store. Start with "New Boots and panties".
