Genuwine - Pony

Classic nineties track by Genuwine, with his surprisingly eighties face. I think it's the sleazy pencil moustache. A colleague of mine met him at the airport in the last year or so and showed me the photos. He still looks like he's from the eighties, still with pencil 'tasche.


Released in 1996 and produced (amongst others) by Timbaland, I've never tired of those deep 'blurps' in this song, good dirty noises, apparently formed from deep vocoded voices. Incidentally, this always makes it onto dirty lists. The Guardian recently published a '1000 Songs To Hear Before You Die' booklet series. Genuwine's place in the sex section of this list is well deserved, and the filth is none too subtly refered to in his gestures from the accompanying music video; "Ride it - my pony".
