This is what Emcee loves to see most, people enjoying themselves. And of course, he notices Jay dancing in the crowd. It's a particularly nice feeling.
The song's vibe changes into an overly sweet and sweeping melody during the bridge. Emcee slips into that persona easily, all dramatic, doe-eyed expressions and reaching toward the lights.
"When I'm not with you, Think of you always, I miss you... (I miss those long hot summer nights) When I'm not with you, Think of me always, Love you...love you..."
And then it switches back to raunchy and bouncy--and so does Emcee.
"Hey, boy, where'd you get it from? Hey, boy, where did you go? I learned my passion In the good old-fashioned School of loverboys!"
During the guitar solo, Emcee demurely requests a dance from Miss Kitty, and they take a jaunty spin around the stage. Sort of like a half-waltz, half-tango, all-fun.
For the next few lines, he adopts a prim English accent, punctuating the lyrics with elegant gestures:
"Dining at the Ritz we'll meet at nine precisely (one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine o'clock) I will pay the bill, you taste the wine... Driving back in style, in my saloon will do quite nicely, Just take me back to yours, that will be fine! C'mon and get it!"
A wicked grin and a hip thrust.
"Ooh love (there he goes again) (he's my good old fashioned loverboy) Ooh, loverboy What're you doin' tonight, hey, boy? Everything's all right, Just hold on tight, That's because I'm a good old-fashioned (fashioned) Loverboy!"
The song ends with Emcee striking a pose, hip jutted out, arm raised above his head, face turned up to the lights -- ever the showman.
