"Talk Dirty to Me" by Poison

Last updated 📅 2025-04-13

Crank up Poison's breakthrough hit "Talk Dirty to Me"! Released as a single in 1987 from their '86 debut, this glam metal anthem bursts with pop metal energy, power pop hooks, and C.C. DeVille's iconic riff. Pure 80s party rock fun!

Though appearing on Poison's 1986 debut Look What the Cat Dragged In, "Talk Dirty to Me" exploded as a single in 1987, launching the band into superstardom. Its irresistible mix of glam metal attitude, accessible pop metal structure, and infectious power pop chorus perfectly captured the sound that would dominate rock radio and MTV that year.

Kicking off with C.C. DeVille's instantly recognizable guitar riff, "Talk Dirty to Me" (single 1987) is pure fun-loving rock and roll. Bret Michaels' playful lyrics and vocals, combined with the song's simple, catchy structure, made it a massive hit video and concert staple. It defined Poison's party-rock image and remains a quintessential glam/pop metal anthem.

SONG MEANING: "Talk Dirty to Me" is a straightforward and playful expression of sexual desire, specifically the narrator's request for their partner to use exciting, suggestive, or risqué language. It's about the thrill and turn-on found in provocative words ("Talk dirty to me") during intimate moments, fitting the band's fun, hedonistic image.

Poison remains a popular draw on the touring circuit. This successful late-80s run produced many of the band's defining tracks, which became staples of the era.
