Tonight's Tease: What Your Favorite Song Says About Your Kisses

Close your eyes and hum it. Not the song you tell people about, the one you actually play, late, alone, when nobody is judging your taste. Tonight's tease claims that song has been quietly describing the way you kiss all along, and I intend to read you like a record sleeve, in the dim light, with one eyebrow raised.

If your song builds slowly, a long quiet intro, a patient swell, a chorus that arrives only when it has truly earned it, then you are a kisser of suspense. You linger an inch away. You let the pause do half the work. People leave your company slightly dizzy, unsure when exactly the moment began, only certain it was well made.

If your favorite is something with a heartbeat bass and a voice that sounds like it knows a secret, you kiss like a conversation that started in the middle. Confident, a little teasing, a hand somewhere that suggests you've already decided. And if your song is wistful, all piano and almost-saying-it, then your kiss is tender and slightly devastating, the sort that makes someone forget what they were about to say.

If your song builds slowly, a long quiet intro, a patient swell, a chorus that arrives only when it has truly earned it, then you are a kisser of suspense.

Maybe you love something bright and fast, a tune that makes your knees want to dance in the kitchen. Then you kiss with laughter still in your mouth, and it is wildly underrated. Joy is the rarest thing a person can bring to a doorway, and you carry it like a lit match.

I won't tell you which one is best. They all have a place on the nightstand. But tonight, play yours once more, quietly, and notice where it makes you lean. The body is a surprisingly honest critic of its own soundtrack.

Tell me the title sometime. My voice is on TheFriend, and I keep a very good ear, and a very good secret, for exactly this kind of confession.
