The song "Slow Wine" by Patrice Roberts is a sensual and playful invitation to dance and enjoy the moment. It is about the intimate connection between two people who are lost in the rhythm of slow wine. The first stanza is an invitation to the partner to put their sweet and slow wine on the singer, while observing other women doing the same to their men. The chorus reaffirms the connection between the two, and the desire to prolong the moment without rushing. The second stanza praises the partner's skills and technique, and asks for more. The bridge describes the dance as poetry in motion, flowing like the ocean, and the singer cannot get over the effect that the partner has on her. The song ends with an invitation for a final dance, and for the partner to hit her one more time.
The song's lyrics are straightforward and uncomplicated, they focus on the physical and emotional connection between two people. The use of repetition and the melody create a hypnotic effect that invites the listener to dance and join in. The chorus in particular, with its simple and catchy melody, is designed to be sung along by a group of people, making it ideal for parties and celebrations. The song celebrates the Caribbean dance culture, where slow wine is a popular and beloved dance that requires skill, sensuality, and rhythm.
