Our Little Secret

Our Little Secret is the third studio album from Belgian electronic band Lords of Acid. It was released in 1997 on Antler-Subway Records. Both musically and lyrically, Lords of Acid maintain the industrial music and sexually charged songs found on their previous album Voodoo-U. Lead vocal duties on Our Little Secret were performed by Jade 4 U. Featured on the front cover is a transvestite (unfolding the CD cover booklet would reveal what "our little secret" really is). The cover model is Pin-Up Artist Charlene Lanzel (who is actually a woman).

Displaying the band's trademark tongue-in-cheek humor, the back cover of the album presented Our Little Secret as a live recording of a classical music concert, as presented by "The Lords of Acid Orchestra". The song titles are presented with faux, intentionally pretentious parentheticals pertaining to classical pieces.

Our Little Secret was the first Lords of Acid album to hit the U.S. Billboard 200, peaking at number 100. As was the case with their Lust and Voodoo-U albums, Our Little Secret was re-issued in 2001 as a "Stript" version, which removed all vocals. The album features one of their most recognizable hits, "Pussy".

Our Little Secret (novel)

Our Little Secret (ISBN 9781862917231) is a 2007 novel written by South Australian author Allayne Webster. The book focuses on a 14-year-old girl, who is seduced and then sexually abused by a man.

The book has gained considerable controversy recently in local politics. Webster says the book should be read by girls 14 and over to understand how predators work. Nick Xenophon agreed and wants schools to add the book to their curriculum.
