So everybody's heard the original version of Sade's "Smooth Operator," and you may have heard Senor Coconut's mambo version and found it most entertaining indeed.
And then there's this "remix" of the Coconut version that retains nothing of the original slow-tempo mambo. In its place is now a creepy-yet-mesmerizing dirty-electro track that sounds like it belongs in a high-tech vampire movie. A really good high-tech vampire movie. The contrast of the vocals with the music is amusing, yes, but it mostly brings to mind the wide array of untoward and immoral things said smooth operator could be engaged in. In a most engaging fashion.
