Why Speed Drive is about Female Orgasms
Why Speed Drive is really about vibrators
Hear me out
Charli XCX’s new song Speed Drive evokes visions of fast cars and cataclysmic chases
But what if I told you there’s another, more sexy, interpretation to be had here ?
That’s right, I’m talking, female masturbation.
I had this idea while using my vibrator
Aka “my best friend in the whole world”
And any woman who can take her pleasure into her own hands is “jump[ing] into the drivers seat” and putting “it” -the vibrator -“into speed drive” aka turning the vibrator on and using it
And if that’s not convincing enough think about how “hot” that imagery is, riding on the sheets, you could say, “on a different frequency” (9 vibration modes)
And then she says
“Know you know just what I mean”
And I’m over here like, Oh baby, I gotchu
“We’re running through the red lights” aka cumming to the lcd light that tells you your vibrator is on
Whereeresss the lieeeeeee ?
Where’s the lie, the lie, the lie, the lie, yeah
Verse 2 only adds fuel to the flame
“Got the top down, tires on fire”
Is masturbation imagery with the top (shirt) down (off) and the tires (genitalia) on fire (on vibrate).
“Who are you I’m living my life?”
A real queen takes her pleasure into her own hands and doesn’t care what others think
Next, there’s a bit of a stigma around female masturbation hence the “side eye” mentioned in the next line
Everyone’s jealous of our female orgasms (they’re “one of a kind”)
Women who take pleasure into their own hands are “a classic, Real deep [Vibrator]”
And the girls who need to know ?
Well, they already know
They’re over there
