Afghan Whigs – “Be Sweet”

mp3: Afghan Whigs – “Be Sweet”

Ladies let me tell you about myself/I’ve got a dick for a brain/and my brain is gonna sell my ass to you

Greg Dulli’s opening line alone is reason enough to immediately love Afghan Whig’s “Be Sweet”. It’s not just in the words, but also in the cool, calm, collected way Dulli delivers them. It’s smooth as butter, and he finally needs to let loose with a scream he does. And Gentlemen, the album from which it comes, is easily one of the best albums of the 90s. If you don’t own it, do yourself a favor and go out and buy it.
