Lyrics

The song's lyrics have been described as being about "auto"-eroticism.[5]

Singer Rob Halford said, "I just liked the analogy of the motorcycle as a euphemism for love. And 'I'm your turbo lover, Tell me there's no other.' It's got kind of a sexual undertone to it – which is fine. It's been done many times in rock n' roll: to use a machine, car, or motorcycle. It's just a fun bit of escapism more than anything else."[6]

Reception

AllMusic writer, Steve Huey, in his review of the song's parent album Turbo, called it "easily the best song on the record".[7] Decibel Magazine described the song as "one of the classiest songs in [Judas Priest's discography]".[8] Loudwire ranked the song at number 10 on their list of the "10 Best Judas Priest Songs".[9]
