INNUENDO SMUT: "LET'S DUET" Cornporn
What a rarity; a subtle dirty song. That's "Let's Duet," a cute and corny bit of crassness that turned up in the docu-parody film "Walk Hard." This pun-filled toss-off co-written by Judd Apatow had modest success in theaters, and probably the same indifference in the DVD release, but it's worth your time, if you like comedy that doesn't take itself or its target too seriously.
One of the musical highlights in this fractured factual fairy tale of some legend crossed between Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison and "The King" his own self, is the moment when Dewey Cox (plenty more dick puns where that came from) joins his lady love for a "let's do it" duet. She sounds a bit more like Nancy Sinatra than June Carter Cash, but that's part of the fun; you can bring your own set of musical references to the film and to the songs. The opening line could, if you feel like it, be considered a nudge-nudge and wink-wink to "Throw mama from the train...a kiss," more than any derivative of Ruth Wallis or Benny Bell.
"In my dreams you're blowing me...some kisses."
"That's one of my favorite things to do."
"You and I could go down...in history."
"That's what I'm prayin' to do with you."
Let's leave it right there, and let you enjoy the rest of the dirt in this ditty. Check out the film, buy the soundtrack, or just go find someone and play this song as inspiration and foreplay.
