4.0 out of 5 stars
nostalgia, September 4, 2007
This review is from: Call Me / Apple Juice Kissing (Audio CD)
Of the 3 or 4 Deee-Lite singles off "Dewdrops," this is the only one with a CD single, if I remember. The jungle mix of this song is on their "Sampladelic Relics" CD. I had a roommate who couldn't stand when I played this song because he thought all the phone-ringing and repetition of "Call me! Call me!" was annoying. I beg to differ. People who want to be called by potential paramours are demanding and repetitive. I love, just love Lady Miss Kier's speeches at the start and finish of this song. Wearing a feminist cap, you can say that she is empowered at the end by refusing the tardy come-ons of the "caller." I love the anime cover of the CD too. Deee-Lite can be viewed as "uneven": some of their stuff rocked, and some was junk. This was the former. I appreciated this joint so much back when I bought this joint in the mid-1990s.
