About French Kissing

"French Kissing" is a song by German singer-songwriter Sarah Connor from her debut album, Green Eyed Soul (2001). Written and produced by Rob Tyger and Kay Denar, the track incorporates a sample of Blackstreet's 1996 hit song "No Diggity" featuring Dr. Dre and Queen Pen, as well an uncredited bassline from Eminem's 2000 song "Stan" featuring Dido and it includes vocal theme inspired by "Tom's Diner", a song performed by "Suzanne Vega". Released on 20 August 2001 as the album's second single, the song saw moderate success when it reached the top thirty in Germany and Austria, but failed to make the top forty elsewhere. To date, "French Kissing" and 2008s "I'll Kiss It Away" are the only singles by Connor not having entered the top twenty of the German Singles Chart.

Come on, you say you love me
I make you believe that it's love you receive
Like a thief
I just take what I need
And when we're going tonight

Just an ordinary evening
I hear voices from the ceiling
And I really was believing
It was my mind playing tricks on me

Went upstairs just for receiving
Something told me you were leaving
So I looked out of my window
Just to see you there coming straight back to me

Do it, baby, do it
On the beach
Do it, baby, do it
Down the street
Do it, baby, do it
You and me
We're gonna do what they call the French kissing

Give it, baby, give it
In the car
Take it, baby, take it
Wherever you are
Give it, baby, give it
Go too far
We're gonna do what they call the French kissing

All the people try to reach us
All the preachers try to teach us
They will never find the features
That make our love live eternally

You and me we live forever
Breakin' rules but stay together
So I miss your kiss and tell you this

Do it, baby, do it
On the beach
Do it, baby, do it
Down the street
Do it, baby, do it
You and me
We're gonna do what they call the French kissing

Give it, baby, give it
In the car
Take it, baby, take it
Wherever you are
Give it, baby, give it
Go too far
We're gonna do what they call the French kissing

Romeo, lover, got up and kissed her
His Juliet girlfriend started to whisper
"According to Caesar and to Cleopatra
I say the top of the pop is French kissing

Live Eve and Adam, seduction led 'em
And when they went to get down
They found their way to heaven
Do you want me to stop? (No)
We're gonna do the French kissing

Do it, baby, do it
On the beach
Do it, baby, do it
Down the street
Do it, baby, do it
You and me
We're gonna do what they call the French kissing

Give it, baby, give it
In the car
Take it, baby, take it
Wherever you are
Give it, baby, give it
Go too far
We're gonna do what they call the French kissing

You just wanna feel

Dup, dup, dup, dup, dup, dup, dup, dup

Do it, baby, do it
On the beach
Do it, baby, do it
Down the street
Do it, baby, do it
You and me
We're gonna do what they call the French kissing

Give it, baby, give it
In the car
Take it, baby, take it
Wherever you are
Give it, baby, give it
Go too far
We're gonna do what they call the French kissing
