I can't help it. DNCE's single "Cake by the Ocean" is just way to catchy for me to ignore.
When first heard it, not only was I moving to the music, but I kept wanting to figure out what "cake by the ocean" meant. To me, it was as cryptic (nonsensical?) as Jimmy Webb's "left my cake out in the rain" in MacArthur's Park.
Turns out, Joe Jonas had a hilarious explanation for it. His Swedish producer kept mis-translating "sex on the beach" into "cake by the ocean"! So they kept it! :)
Now I love the tune even more! :)
