slinky

Some reached into the past, slinky in ’90s Roberto Cavalli satin or structured in ’80s shoulder-padded blazers.

A slinky, smoky dancefloor filler, it finds Crookes giving herself a pep talk as she prepares to plunge back into the dating world.

Overall, the album leans heavily toward the late ’80s, like in the guitar riff intro of the synth-heavy “I Need U Back,” while the quirky breakup song “Casket Girl” sounds like a slinky backdrop to a hot L.A. summer night.

“Stupid Cupid” was the first of many hits she’d have with the songwriters, including the slinky ‘Fallin’” and the ballad “Frankie.”

As the band rides the song’s slinky punk-funk groove, we see Flea bust out some of his signature moves and Kiedis swipe a fan’s cellphone for a selfie; at one point, a group of women in the crowd even flash their breasts at the frontman.
