Agreed:
Maria changes every other line to “I like me so much better when you’re naked,” a sly twist that takes the single from a shut-up-and-kiss-me plea into something more wounded and Liz Phair-like. That kind of wry playfulness makes Ida Maria likely to become one of the first breakout rock acts of 2009. She reels you in with promises of nudity and ridiculously catchy noise-pop, but it’s obvious that there’s much more on her mind than some dim boy.
