I’m Aroused: “Pour Some Sugar on Me”
Group: On the Rocks
Season: 2
If this performance is going to be at the top of any kind of Sing-Off countdown list, it’s gotta be at the top of a list called “I’m Aroused,” unless you’re not aroused by guys in leather jackets gyrating their hips in the air and rubbing their hands all over their bodies while singing rock songs. If that’s the case, might I recommend Delilah, or if sweet boys are your thing, perhaps some Committed?
Anyway, I’ll take two lumps of that sugar, and the beatboxer, thank you.
