LYRICS:
You know I ain't straight,
But ima say it straight to you
And look you in the face
Every time I talk to you.
I wanna be clear and not convolute
I'll say what I mean
I expect the same from you.
So you wanna play rough in the parking lot?
See you actin' tough, but I know you're not.
We can take it outside scuffle in the streetlight.
I just really wanna fight with you.
Man to man
Hand to hand
One on one
Friend to friend.
Are you man enough to soften up?
Are you to tough enough to open up?
Man to man.
You gotta let me in.
You gotta be the bigger man.
You gotta take the higher ground.
You gotta put your fists away.
You gotta lay your weapons down.
So you wanna play rough in the parking lot?
See you actin' tough, but I know you're not.
We can take it outside scuffle in the streetlight.
I just really wanna fight with you.
Man to man
Hand to hand
One on one
Friend to friend.
Are you man enough to soften up?
Are you to tough enough to open up?
Man to man.
You gotta let me in.
(Man to man to man to man, baby. You gotta let me in).
Don't beat around the bush.
Don't talk behind my back.
Quit acting cowardly.
Don't launch a sneak attack.
Just step out here in the daylight,
and we can handle this just right.
Just take my hand
and we can settle this man to man.
(Man to Maaaaaaaaan)
About Dorian:
Rising pop star Dorian Electra makes music that defies gender norms. In the past year, their work has gained a queer cult following and led to them being named a must-know talent by Buzzfeed and one of PAPER Magazine's "100 Women Revolutionizing Pop." Not only that, but Electra has also quickly built a dedicated following thanks to their futuristic spin on 00s pop, 80s funk, and a long-standing love of satirizing rigid gender roles and views on sexuality. A frequent Charli XCX collaborator, Electra was featured on the Pop 2 track "Femmebot (feat. Dorian Electra and Mykki Blanco)" alongside Mykki Blanco. They have also played live with XCX at a number of self-curated shows and after parties. Most recently, Electra performed at NYC Pride 2018, toured with British pop sensation Rina Sawayama. Electra's last three singles and music videos, "Career Boy" "VIP" and "Man To Man" have garnered press and playlist spots from Billboard, The Fader, and Buzzfeed among others.
2019 will see the release of Dorian Electra's debut album and headlining tour.

Widen my range to the point that I can work with both a "manly" lower range and a "feminine" higher range, which has been a struggle with my soprano voice, but the times I've felt most like myself are when I go from a high belting to gravely low notes. It feels powerful. That's one of the few times I have no doubts in my mind about my gender. I just found your music, but it seems like it might be just what I need. Thanks my fellow enby.

[@Sadveneco]

2:22 HOW ARE THOSE VOCALS SO PERFECT????? I- omg that subtle vibrato is EVERYTHING

[@Sadveneco]

@Anthony Lopez Don't worry, I got you. Vibrato (Italian, from past participle of "vibrare", to vibrate) is a musical effect consisting of a regular, pulsating change of pitch. It is used to add expression to vocal and instrumental music. Vibrato is typically characterised in terms of two factors: the amount of pitch variation ("extent of vibrato") and the speed with which the pitch is varied ("rate of vibrato"). In singing it can occur spontaneously through variations in the larynx. The vibrato of a string instrument and wind instrument is an imitation of that vocal function. Dorian used a very sublte vibrato at 2:22 🐐

@@DORIANELECTRA The vocal range here from "masculine" to "feminine" is the most intriguing and impressive thing I've heard in a long time. You are very excellent to listen to! A genuine performer. Not to mention you are a great dancer. Truly embracing everything with confidence and without doubt. Also, your aesthetic is a visually spectacular mind-fuck. I love the edgy 80's sound combined with everything. Do not stop! Ever. This needs to be recognized, respected, accepted, and appreciated.

Oh my God, I want this song to blow up so badly. This is the kind of pop we need but been lacking in for a long time. Creative and progressive! This is seriously some of the best music to have come out of this entire decade, imo. Bravo, Dorian! I'm so proud of you!

LYRICS You know I ain't straight But imma say it straight to you I look you in the face Every time I talk to you I want to be clear And not convolute I'll say what I mean I expect the same from you So you want to play rough in the parking lot See you acting tough, but I know you're not We can take it outside, scuff up in the streetlights I just really wanna fight with you Man to man, hand to hand One on one, friend to friend Are you man enough to soften up? Are you tough enough to open up? Man to man You gotta let me in You've gotta be the bigger man You've got to take the higher ground You gotta pull your fists away You gotta lay your weapons down So you want to play rough in the parking lot See you acting tough, but I know you're not We can take it outside, scuff up in the streetlights I just really wanna fight with you Man to man (man to man), hand to hand (hand to hand) One on one (one on one), friend to friend (friend to friend) Are you man enough to soften up? (soften up) Are you tough enough to open up? (brave enough, open up) Man to man You gotta let me in Don't beat around the bush Don't talk behind my back Quit acting cowardly Don't launch a sneak attack Just sit right here in the daylight And we can handle the stress alright Just take my hand, we can settle this man to man Man to man (man to man), hand to hand (hand to hand) One on one (one on one), friend to friend (friend to friend) Are you man enough to soften up? (soften up) Are you tough enough to open up?

I've always been straight. There's never really been much doubt of that in my head. But let's be real, most straight guys are caught up in a storm of toxic masculinity (or better yet, *limiting* masculinity) and this song has a list of great things to say to everyone a mile long. From the very first line, this is gold. The idea that you have to be tough and strong to show emotion and talk about your feelings is something most guys don't understand... or at least they didn't when I had a social life. Maybe things are changing. Maybe this is part of the reason why. Dorian, you rock in a way the world hasn't seen before. You're a hero.
