Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight Is there any just cause for feeling like this? Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight I just died in your arms tonight It must have been something you said On the surface I'm a name on a list It must have been some kind of kiss I've lost and found it's my final mistake Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight Publisher: SONY/ATV MUSIC PUBLISHING UK LTD I followed my hands to my head, I know I was wrong It must have been something you said Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight The curtains are closed, the cat's in the cradle She's loving by proxy, no give and all take I keep looking for something I can't get But now it's over, the moment has gone Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight It was a long hot night, she made it easy I should have walked away I should have walked away She made it feel right It must have been something you said Songwriter: Nicholas Eede I should have walked away I try to be discreet but then blow it again I should have walked away I just died in your arms tonight Who would have thought that a boy like me could come to this? It must have been some kind of kiss 'Cause I've been thrilled to fantasy, one too many times It must have been something you said I just died in your arms tonight Broken hearts, they're all around me Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight And I don't see an easier way to get out of this I should have walked away Her diary sits by the bedside table Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight It must have been some kind of kiss I just died in your arms tonight I should have walked away
I was born in 1998, and I wish I could've been born in the 70's so I would've gotten better music.

I believe that orgasm and ejaculation are the same thing bruce. But if you pay attention to the lyrics it says that he should've walked away, he knew it was wrong etc so it could be that he was embarrassed by it and come on, who would be embarrassed if it wasn't premature?

That's the fun little trivia part, but even if you're unaware of that, the crux of it is that he is experiencing cognitive dissonance about a one night stand. It's about as romantic as One by U2 huh?

Close Whitewolf. A "little death" was a Victorian term for an orgasm. I belive this is what the song is referencing. So dying in someones arms would be .... well you know.

I remember reading a funny comment about this band. They were being interviewed and were talking about how record shops were putting their album in the "rap" section of the store because of their name Cutting "Crew" LOL! There were A LOT of rap artists at the time that had the word "Crew" in their name, so they were getting put in the wrong section of music stores! LOL true story :) anyway LOVE LOVE LOVE this song...might be one of my very favorites from the 80's period...lot s of memories :)

I love it! It pumps me up!!!! Takes me back to my days of no worries!!!

Maybe. It sounds to me like the chorus, intro and verses are all in the same (minor) key to me. Oh well, doesn't really matter.
|
||
darkthunders t o r m : Not sure, but I think it transitions from minor to major key shortly after the intro.
|
||
Awesome song! I do have one small thing though (not at the song, but at Pandora). This song is in a minor key, not a major key.
