Frisky Monkey's “You Kiss Me (Tango Version)” takes on an ardent fire as the rhythm embodies tango’s powerful motion while strings give a sweeping expression to the melody. Juan Cezar’s deep voice matches ideally with the guitar, as the main theme sings its fiery song.
The drumbeat keeps tango time as the strings wrap around my ears, transmitting blazing desire. The way in which Juan Cezar’s basso profundo voice captures intense sensation is compelling for me.
Orchestral strings complement the passion in the vocals while the swirling sounds enfold the vocals. The transformation of this song gives it new life and breathes more character into it before ending.
Ever since the song's subject showed up unexpectedly, they changed the narrator's world. He adds, "You looked at me then drew me in, you held me close within." He speaks of being kissed by the other person, which leaves him "wanting so much more" because their kisses are like magic.
"Touch me and make me shiver, every nerve is alive, you make me quiver." With all of these powerful feelings, one look from the song's subject is enough to make our storyteller drown as he concludes, "You held me deep inside and now I'm living."
