I'm sorry, but although I am a HUGE HUGE HUGE Etta fan, each and every time I see this song title (anywhere) I think of masturbation :) It must be the Catholic in me, but this song makes me snicker every time! I won't bother deciphering the lyrics because they are not only straightforward, but I didn't select this song for them.

Distractions are abstractions you cannot hide, you cannot lie...you've been playing with yourself so long you don't even know why...but now ya just can't fight..."it's just you and your and tonight." Pink... don't it make you think bella babe? You're so lame, you're fucking insane...well, I'm out of this game...checkmate!

I don't appreciate the negative rating just because the song title reminds me of Lauppering. I can't help how it moves me. (No pun intended)
