[edit] Video Interpretation
In the beginning, of the video, Ludacris appears in the background of cold, blue mountains that resemble a utopian-like place.[1] Next, the scene turns to Sandy Coffee as she sings make love to me, as she's wear a football jersey (which is yellow and blue), which is the same as the Football cheering behind her. The camera rapidly zooms into the crowd of the fans.
Now, the camera shows Ludacris in football equipment and a bandana approaching a light-skinned cheearleader on a bed. He raps while, he holds her face. Then the background of the utopia is shows, as Sandy serenades her solo, and Ludacris appears at distance rapping around the clouds. Then, he shows up once more with the cheerleader, in a bed, then on the clouds again. This happens constantly as the video goes on. A woman painted in blue, with blue hair, who rembles the Mystique character. shows up the video. [1] The camera shows a small close up of them together. Sandy's part plays usually after Ludacris says soemething lustful. Ludacris call and respond verses throught the whole song.
For Example: [Ludacris + (Sandy Coffee)] Ohhhh! Ohhhh! Ohhhh! Say it (make love to me) Ohhhh! Ohhhh! Ohhhh! What? (f**k, meee!) Ohhhh! Ohhhh! Ohhhh! Say it (make love to me) Ohhhh! Ohhhh! Ohhhh! What? (f**k, meee!)
The following scene, shows a couple at a restaurant; a waiter passes by them.[1] This blocks their scene, as the love interest of Ludacris and Ludacris become very intimate. Also in the scene, they are shown at a diner table. As Ludacris appears in the sky once more, the blue-haired, and dotted face-woman's face shows. The gestures in the video coordinate with the lyrics such as this verse: Dinner's by candlelight - say it (make love to me) She got a nigga whipped, down to ya fingertips Tryin that freaky shit - what? (fuck, meee!). [2]
The woman urges Ludacris for attention. Suprisingly, this womans passes out while, the waiter slips up and falls and drops a plate. [1]
A woman who is on her job, is tyoping on her computer a search or Ludacris.[1] A video streamer shows, and suddenly a video of Ludacris shows, that does not show for long, but reappears several times. Ludacris, on his computer raps while he types in a robe. Supposedly, he is located in a secret basement room. The lady and Luda trade back messages. Ludacrs touch's the face on the screen. Interestingly, other unexplainned girls show around. A body in a red hat dances onto the beat in the skys.
Next, Luda and a girl are found in a library in between bookshelves. Ludacris sits in a chair reading a book on the left side, on the right a girl is pushing a cart of books. The book has the title of Kama Sutra and he opens it and reads, he wears a pair of reading glasses.[1] The girl places a book on a shelve, slowly, Ludacris tilts his glasses. The woman turns herself around, through the space left from the book Luda chose. He looks at her, as she relaxes, and reads some of the book, though mainly watches her actions.[1]
He raps, again in the skys, then again on the wheel chair with a book in his hand. The lady backs up against the shelves slowly and seductively.[1] In addition, the blue woman who appears to be able to fly appears in the skys. Back to the library scene, the tall-slender lady pushes back the cart as books fall off. She falls down to the floor slowly as well.
Now in the video, Luda and a lady hold each other while in a mansion.[1] This scene is interupted with the black gut with the red hat dancing. Ludacris strips his love interest. Then him and the other black guy show on the bluesjy blackground. Next, the girl removes Ludacris's shirt. This continues, until the camera shows a Ludacris in a jailhouse, with the inmate attire on.[1] As he watches two peaple in distance walk past him. One of the people is a attractive woman who sipposedly is working for the police and a white policeman walking away from the other two.[1] The woman walks up to him and sits on his lap. Their reactions pertain the lyrics of the song. [2] As the scene ends with the lady grabbing on Ludacris and a shot of the policeman, the picture of Ludacris on his computer shows.
Then, a woman enters his room, masaging his shoulders. The two unexplained women earlier mention are on a computer, then their scene fades out[1] . A picture of Ludacris an the lady he's with appear on a video screen. Then the woman, at her office angrily knocks some wires off her desk.
Continuing on, Ludacris and another lady appear on a beach. Then they are seen at the pool in the video's mansion, and the woman jumps in the pool, while Luda watches. Once more, Luda searches on his computer.[1] The woman at her job, ncidentally fies her computrs hardware when she types. In the pool area, a Ludacris jumps in the pool; he is
