For some reason I sort of feel that too. Maybe I'm weird. But I like Ayu's sexyness when it is subtle and not overt. Like Sparkle and its PV for me were way too overt for her. Already having sexy in the title makes it seem overt. If someone/something really is sexy, they don't have to actually say it because they are it and that is a big part of what makes something sexy.

But maybe the content of the song will be totally surprising.

I don't think being prudish really has anything to do with it. I'm definitely not. But it comes down to people having this more mature image of Ayu. And contrary to popular opinion here, sex and maturity are two different things.

Well, the thing is, even if she did read a translation, she still wouldn't be able to know how raunchy it is without being a native speaker of the language. Just like if I were to sing something similar in Japanese it would be no big deal to me because I wouldn't know the nuances of the language that only a native speaker would really know, especially when it comes to slang words like coochie.
