The group's first album, the self-titled Dirty Vegas, contained a mix of electronic/club instrumentals and similar tracks with vocals by Steve Smith. This album was influenced by The Crystal Method and The Chemical Brothers, but with a slightly more laid-back approach. Songs like Throwing Shapes or The Brazilian would sound at home on an album by either of these two contemporaries.
Their second studio album, One, moved away from club music, and featured a style reminiscent of an adult contemporary album; none of the tracks went on to become hits. Some fans were put off by the drastic departure from their first album, while other fans welcomed the change.
The band reports that their third studio outting should strike a balance between the two, leaning toward the club style again.
Electric Love
Dirty Vegas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I'm searching for anything to fill my needs
I'm down in the alley ways, these devil and dogs
Talking with the enemies, they were shit like guards
Keep coming on, keep coming on,
Keep coming on, keep moving on,
Keep coming on, keep coming on,
This smoke feel blue, when no one sleeps,
Your cigarette kisses, that taste so sweet,
You look so pretty, you glitter in gold,
Running through your blood,
Is electric love, is electric love.
Is electric love.
Keep coming on, keep coming on,
Keep coming on, keep coming on,
Keep coming on, keep coming on,
Keep coming on, keep coming on,
With electric love,
Keep coming on, (with electric love)
Keep coming on, keep coming on,
With electric love.
With electric love.
With electric love, with electric love,
With electric love, with electric love.
The song "Electric Love" by Dirty Vegas tells the story of a person who is searching for something to fill their needs. They leave their house and venture out into the streets, into the alleyways where they encounter the devil and dogs, talking to their enemies who are as demanding as guards. This character seems to be lost, wandering aimlessly and searching for something to fill the void in their life. They seem to find relief in the company of others and in the rush of their surroundings, especially in the presence of someone they are attracted to.
The lyrics mention smoke that feels blue, cigarette kisses that taste sweet, and a person who looks so pretty and glittery in gold. The singer mentions that this person runs on electric love, which could be interpreted as a metaphor for the excitement and thrill that this person brings to the singer's life. This love is depicted as something that powers the person and drives them forward. The chorus repeats the phrase "Keep coming on" to reinforce a sense of urgency and persistence in the search for this electric love.
Overall, the song seems to convey a sense of longing, restlessness, and a desire for escape. It's a spirited and catchy song, with pulsing beats and electronic sounds that capture the sense of excitement and chaos in the singer's world.

I leave my house into the streets
I step out of my house and start wandering on the streets
And I'm searching for anything to fill my needs
I am looking for something to satisfy my wants and desires
I'm down in the alley ways, these devil and dogs
I find myself in the dark and dingy alleys where danger lurks
Talking with the enemies, they were shit like guards
I engage in conversation with my foes who act as guardians against my aspirations
Keep coming on, keep coming on,
Don't give up, keep pushing forward
Keep coming on, keep moving on,
Stay persistent, keep advancing
This smoke feel blue, when no one sleeps,
The fumes seem to turn blue when the town is asleep
Your cigarette kisses, that taste so sweet,
The flavour of your cigarette when mixed with your breath is a pleasant taste
You look so pretty, you glitter in gold,
You look stunning with your shining golden outfit
Running through your blood,
Your innermost feelings and emotions
Is electric love, is electric love.
