Album Info
Album: Spin (2002)
Overview
Dirty is the sixth track on the Spin album.
Themes and meaning
Dirty is pretty clearly a song about sex. I’m not sure what more I can say about it. When Darren moved from Savage Garden and in to his solo work, he took a more mature route in his sound, and this is evident in songs like ‘Dirty’.
Fun fact: During the recording of ‘Dirty’ Darren had to make a bunch of moaning sound clips, during this, he stopped to look up at the people watching him in the studio and laughed. That laugh ended up being kept as part of the track.

Thoughts
Songs that are blatantly about sex never really vibe with me if I’m honest – but whilst Dirty isn’t my favourite track by any means, it is super catchy and I will sing along during a play through.
