Ruby - "Paraffin"

Ruby were a duo featuring Lesley Rankine and producer Mark Walk. Their debut album 'Salt Peter' was released in 1995 and it featured the dark, yet beautiful, trip-hop/industrial single "Paraffin." In "Paraffin" you can sense a lot of feeling and expression in Lesley's voice. However, it wasn't quite the angry song I thought it was. It turns out, after some research, that "Paraffin" is actually about the smell of body fluids during sex. How about that!
