    "comment": "\"There is a carnival atmosphere in this song that was inspired by some of Swaby's favorite blues singers. \n\nThe Heavy frontman told Songfacts: \"I love the idea of the way that Screamin' Jay Hawkins did 'I Put A Spell On You.' It's like, well, let's go with that style of blues, rather than just playing 8-bar blues. As much as it is 8-bar blues, it's just the horns, and the horns are big in what we do. It just emphasizes every single line I sing, it emphasizes. [Singing] 'I saw her dancing with the devil,' ba ba ba bum – so you're waiting for the next line: 'And he was wearing my shoes,' ba ba ba… so that was the way that we decided to go about that. The idea of it was Screamin' Jay rolling with Tom Waits.\"\n\nhttps://www.songfacts.com/facts/the-heavy/sixteen\n\nOfficial music vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfB_sT3mHHo",
