I’ve heard this song for more than 30 years, but only yesterday did I pay attention to the lyrics. It’s not about candy.

Spoiler warning: Montrose’s Rock Candy is not about candy either. Oh, right, I guess it makes itself a little more clear on the subject.

Spoiler #2: Def Leppard’s Pour Some Sugar on Me is not, in fact, about sugar. As such.

Depending upon what sort of candy it is, wrapping it in a sweater might get a little bit messy.

Funny enough this song actually is about candy. I think....

It's 80s pop. If you're listening to the lyrics, you're not doing it right.

You are correct. But as the father of a 13-year-old boy, my filtering skills are getting keener.

She was 14 when she joined the band. I hadn't realized that three of the members left Adam Ant to form this group.

yeah kinda sucks! What is wierd is mclaren formed these bands to promote other things. I know he promoted the sex pistols dont know if they were used to promote his businesses but its kinda strange.
