What song are you listening to right now?

Bush was one of my favorite bands when I was 12-14ish. At the time, I decided to use a chatroom and came up with ilovebush as my username with (un)surprising results. It could be worse. They could've thought I was a fan of the President.

 
I wasn't allowed to listen to this song when I visited my aunt as a kid because, when he says that he wants to "bathe with you in the sea," she didn't think that he was referring to swimming. Shocking! According to the same aunt: you can listen to the 1812 Overture, but don't talk about it because it might offend someone since it's clearly promoting and glorifying warfare.


Surprisingly, "I'll Make Love to You" by Boyz II Men was okay because it could be about a married couple. I strongly suspect she just liked the song.
