Is this song/singer more sexually provocative than Britney Spears, or can I sing this song on Karaoke night with 70+ year olds around?

[Bethany22]

I mean, apart from the skimpy outfits, Britney Spears's lyrics are relatively G rated, right? Whereas this singer (Zella Day) gets naked AND her lyrics are sexual:

Chorus of 'Hypnotic':

Magnetic everything about you
You really got me, now
You do it to me so well
Hypnotic taking over me
Make me feel like someone else
You got me talking in my sleep
I don't wanna come back down
I don't wanna touch the ground
Pacific Ocean, dug so deep
Hypnotic taking over me

It would be inappropriate to sing 'Hypnotic' at a karaoke night with 70+ people there

It would be inappropriate to sing 'Hypnotic' at a karaoke night regardless of the audience's age

The lyrics of 'Hypnotic' are G-rated enough to be appropriate to sing for most audiences

You have the entirely wrong idea about 70-year-olds, unless you are talking about 70-year-old Baptist Sunday School teachers. Today's 70-year-olds were born in 1952. In their twenties they were having sex more freely than today's 20-somethings. Some still are. Sing whatever you want.

[Bethany22]

But for some odd reason they still get shocked at all of the sex on tv that wasn't the case in the 70s. Of course that's mainly people that don't have tv at all, and see one show every so often. Maybe the tv producers are in their 70s, and are the ones who have changed the types of tv shows on air

Who does? I don't know a lot of 70-year-olds, but I know a few and they aren't the least bit shocked.

I think you'll be okay. If you don't sexualize it, then it won't be sexualized. Dolly Parton sang songs about making love and so did gazillions of other singers. Don't worry about it.

Thank you for MHO!

The video itself is about "average" for what I've seen over the years as far as "provocative" goes. As for the song itself, I think it would be a bad karaoke choice because it's difficult to sing, repetitive and just seems to drone on.

Except for 4 or 5 lines in the middle, I haven't got a clue what these words mean! Maybe you can try this one, instead.

don't worry... they won't even heard most of it

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

The lyrics of 'Hypnotic' are G-rated enough to be appropriate to sing for most audiences

[20yearsolder]

It would be fine, 70 plus year olds won't even understand the lyrics

[Pyrofox]

Hypnotic is still a pretty clean song XD...

[Avatar74]

I don't see nothing controversial in those lyrics to offend older people, I don't see why you couldn't sing it

[fonduegirl]

It's just a song. Don't overthink it.

Shortly, SECOND option, love.

[Sixgunsound]

Modern music is generally trash.
