Danger! High Voltage
"Danger! High Voltage" is a song by Electric Six, released as the band's debut single. Originally released as a 7" vinyl in 2002, the single was re-released by XL Recordings on January 6, 2003. It reached number 2 in the UK Singles Chart〔 and was named Single of the Week by the ''NME''. It was also released on the band's debut album ''Fire'' (2003). Jack White of The White Stripes performed the secondary lead vocals on the track. Members of the band have claimed in interviews that the singer was an auto mechanic named John S. O'Leary and not White, although some professional music critics correctly suspected this name was a pseudonym for White.
The song was originally recorded in early 2000,〔Handyside, 2013, pg. 180〕 when the band was under the name The Wildbunch. They were forced to drop this name following legal pressure from the Bristol trip hop collective of the same name.〔Handyside, 2013, pg. 183〕 The later album and single version was produced by British music producers, Damien Mendis and Stuart Bradbury—who also created 'club mixes' under the name of Soulchild. The song is also featured in films ''Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle'' and ''Diary of a Wimpy Kid'' in addition to the commercials for Subaru and the video game ''Forza Motorsport 6''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://news.xbox.com/2015/09/games-forza-6-tv-ad )〕
Its catchline "Danger! Danger! High Voltage!" and the guitar patterns have huge similarities with the Song "Danger (Been So Long)" from Rapper Mystikal, as well released in the year 2000.
==Critical reception==
''The New York Times'' called the song "catchier than anything on the radio by the White Stripes."〔Strauss, Neil (February 16, 2003). ("MUSIC: SPINS; Burning Down the Garage" ). ''The New York Times''. Retrieved on 2008-01-04〕 ''The Guardian'' called it "insanely catchy", though "the archetypal comic novelty single."〔Petridis, Alexis (June 27, 2003), ("Electric Six: Fire" ) ''The Guardian''. Retrieved on 2008-01-04〕 Josh Tyrangiel with ''Time'' magazine also praised the track.〔Tyrangiel, Josh (June 02, 2003), ("Brilliant Idiots" ). ''Time'' Retrieved on 2008-01-04〕 NME's Piers Martin wrote "(Six ) rustle up the sort of pop-party thrash which sounds like the idiot half-brother to The Rapture’s 'House Of Jealous Lovers'. That good." The song is listed at #234 on the best songs of the 2000s by Pitchfork Media. It was also featured in ''The Pitchfork 500''.〔 Writing for ''The Village Voice'', Amy Phillips said, "The two men shout declarations of affection to each other over a sizzling Saturday Night Fever groove, and the sax sounds as if it's being played by someone with a long, luscious mullet. The video features taxidermy and a glowing codpiece."〔http://www.villagevoice.com/2003-04-01/music/sax-as-a-weapon/full/〕
