I wanna be your vacuum cleaner Breathing in your dust I wanna be your Ford Cortina I will never rust If you like your coffee hot Let me be your coffee pot You call the shots babe I just wanna be yours Secrets I have held in my heart Are harder to hide than I thought Maybe I just wanna be yours I wanna be yours, I wanna be yours Wanna be yours, wanna be yours, wanna be yours Let me be your 'leccy meter and I'll never run out And let me be the portable heater that you'll get cold without I wanna be your setting lotion (I wanna be) Hold your hair in deep devotion (How deep?) At least as deep as the Pacific Ocean I wanna be yours Secrets I have held in my heart Are harder to hide than I thought Maybe I just wanna be yours I wanna be yours, I wanna be yours Wanna be yours, wanna be yours, wanna be yours Wanna be yours, wanna be yours, wanna be yours... I wanna be your vacuum cleaner Breathing in your dust I wanna be your Ford Cortina I won't ever rust I just wanna be yours I just wanna be yours I just wanna be yours

about

For the members of Silky Steps, the now 10-year old AM album by Arctic Monkeys was a life-altering affair. At the time in high school, the music induced a craze of leather jackets and chokers among all the bands in Pernau.

Silky Steps was no exception. Now they poured those raw, messy and lust-filled school days into their version of "I Wanna Be Yours" - doused with a thick layer of smooth. The original slow dance feel got turned into something adequate for the peak hour. The song's unforgettable melody and Alex Turner's unbeatable lyrics remain intact, while being sung by Silky's male-female vocalists.

Brilliantly standing the test of time, the album AM turned ten in September. The single in question "I Wanna Be Yours" is still in the Spotify global Top 50 chart. Keeping with the times, the cover versions include a "slowed" version suitable for a more downtempo, balearic playlist.

Silky Steps Tallinn, Estonia

Glamour and sweat fill any room Silky Steps plays. The 5-piece takes the pop side of funk and disco by its horns. At the helm, a combo of male-female lead vocals sing about about the X-rated side of life. Plentiful synths and suave basslines get all the right juices flowing.

For the fans of Jungle, L’imperatrice, Breakbot, Parcels and Nile Rodgers to name a few. ... more
