TAPE TITLE: |
This
is the second sexiest song ever written. . . |
| OVERALL
COMMENTS: |
The
title comes from a live version of "Nobody Does It Better"
by Radiohead in which Thom Yorke calls it the sexiest song ever
written. After the song, before going into the next, he says
"this is the second sexiest song ever written", but
that song is cut off - so I don't what it is... I was thinking
about that, and so here is a list of the second sexiest songs
ever written. "Second" sexiest because they're not
all overtly sexy, maybe it's the way the song builds, or the
imagery - but at the right time, in the right place, each one
of these songs can contend as the second sexiest song ever written.
PS: After the fact, i've found that a lot of these songs have
a sense of innocence or sincerity to them... I guess that's
kinda sexy. |

SONG
TITLE - ARTIST |
| Track
1: |
All
Right For Now - The Anniversary |
| COMMENTS: |
This
is a beautifully sung, upbeat number. Got the chance to see
them once, bought a button- it had a picture of Mao on it and
read: "We Know People Who People" - damn, I wish still
had that pin!
And
you said when we are older
And you said when we are older
That's enough to make me feel all right when you're gone
I never could feel this way before you
I never understood how this would work
Started without an end
And that's enough to make me feel all right forever |
| TRACK
2: |
Jet
Ski Accidents - Blow
|
| COMMENTS: |
This
is a Jason Anderson (Wolf Colonel) cover - truly a sexy song
- perhaps the second sexiest song ever written.
"I'd
love to make reluctant sex
Even though you claim it's wrong
It's wrong it's wrong it's wrong
It's wrong it's wrong it's wrong it's wrong
You prattle on,
but so is speeding
and I watch you speed everyday
in that truck
I'd love to make you nervous
I'd love to make you insecure
I'd love to make you breakfast the morning after. . ." |
| TRACK
3: |
Untitled
- Interpol
|
| COMMENTS: |
"Surprise,
sometimes, will come around
Surprise, sometimes, will come around
I will surprise you sometime, I'll come around
Oh, I will surprise you sometime, I'll come around
when you're down." |
| TRACK
4: |
Too
Little Too Late - Metric
|
| COMMENTS: |
"You
can burn your paper fingers in the ashtray
Place your swollen lips on mine
You can shave your heavy head in my carpeted hallway
Sure for the first time you're wearing the right clothes
Now take them off. . ." |
| TRACK
5: |
Transatlanticism
- Death Cab for Cutie
|
| COMMENTS: |
"I
need you so much closer. . . so come on" |
| TRACK
6: |
29
Years - The National
|
| COMMENTS: |
From
the phenomenal S/T album. The chorus would later appear at the
end of "Slow Show" from 2007's "Boxer".
"You
know I dreamed about you
For 29 years before
I saw you
You know I dreamed about you
I missed you for 29 years" |
| TRACK
7: |
Flamenco
Sketches - Miles Davis
|
| COMMENTS: |
"Kind
of Blue" is completely sexy. . . in a melancholic way. |
| TRACK
8: |
This
is Hardcore - Pulp
|
| COMMENTS: |
This
song is straight-up seedy... a dirty song, with sexy highs and
lows. |
| TRACK
9: |
All
Mine (live) - Portishead
|
| COMMENTS: |
Recorded
live with a 35-piece orchestra at NYC's Roseland Ballroom. This
track fits well following Pulp. The highs and lows of Beth Gibbon's
voice pair perfectly with the strings. Great track, from a great
album. |
| TRACK
10: |
When
You Sleep - My Bloody Valentine
|
| COMMENTS: |
Someone
once described this song as "orgasmic" - the swirling
guitar is sooo sexxxy! |
| TRACK
11: |
Consequence
- The Notwist
|
| COMMENTS: |
Simply
a sexy song...
"Never
leave me paralyzed, love.
Leave me hypnotized, love." |
| TRACK
12: |
Our
Way to Fall - Yo la Tengo
|
| COMMENTS: |
Lovely
number about the beginnings and middles - seems so innocent
and sincere, love it!
"I
remember a summer's day
I remember walking up to you
I remember my face turned red
And I remember staring at my feet
I remember before we met
I remember sitting next to you
And I remember pretending I wasn't looking
So
we try and try
Even if it lasts an hour
With all our might
We'll try and make it ours
Because we're on our way
We're on our way to fall in love" |
| TRACK
13: |
Be
Mine - R.E.M.
|
| COMMENTS: |
Some
might see this as too cute or cheesy to be sexy, but it's exactly
that simplicity that lands this track on the list. From "New
Adventures in Hi-Fi."
"I'll
be the sky above the Ganges
I'll be the vast and stormy sea
I'll be the lights that guide you inward
I'll be the visions you will see
The visions you will see
You will see" |
| TRACK
14: |
First
Self-Portrait Series - The Rachel's
|
| COMMENTS: |
Instrumental.
I couldn't describe this any better - so here's what Allmusic
said about this album, "Music for Egon Schiele":
"Rachel's
weaves a delicate but highly moving musical fabric that wraps
itself around you tightly and pulls you in, simultaneously cradling
you lovingly while haunting you with its melancholy ambiance." |
| TRACK
15: |
All
Mixed Up - Red House Painters
|
| COMMENTS: |
Yes,
this is a Car's cover. . . From "Songs for a Blue Guitar"
Deserves a listen! |
