Let's sing about sex, baby - Arts & Life

Let's sing about sex, baby - Arts & Life

Your parents tried to hide it but your TV shows implied it, and while your politicians denied it, your musicians ? well ? they supplied it.

Sex has and will continue to be one of the most controversial and provocative topics in American culture. No one understands nor challenges this idea more passionately or frequently than the famous singers and songwriters who dared to go there, producing hilarious, sensual, blush-inducing songs that thrust sex through the airwaves, enticing listeners for over six decades.

Dating back well beyond the days of steamy MTV music videos and sexually explicit warning labels, musicians and big bands were kissing and telling to audiences hungry and aching for some songs about sex.

In 1953, Maurice Williams & the Zodiacs' hit song, "Stay," gave the nation's youth an excuse to take up dirty dancing in basements and garages across the country. Three years later, The Five Satins showed a more sensitive, sensual side with the billboard topping hit, "In the Still of the Night."

Many of the romantic songs of the 1940s and 1950s only subtly alluded to sex, until 1956, when Frank Sinatra re-released Gus Kahn's barely-known song from 1930, "Making Whoopee," thus shifting the music industry's sexual-implicit tone of the time to more funny, raw and risqué ¬yrics.

The always controversial and risk-taking band, The Doors, didn't hesitate to talk about what really turns men on in the group's 1967 single, "Light My Fire," with lead singer Jim Morrison's instructional lyrics inviting women everywhere to spark someone's sexual fuse.

No one in the history of music did sex quite as well as Marvin Gaye, not even Madonna. Two of his incredibly successful and popular hit songs, "Let's Get It On" and "Sexual Healing," remain bedtime favorites to this day, a good 30 years after their suggestive lyrics served as the ultimate aphrodisiac.

Gaye wasn't alone in his day, however, as the leading sexual songwriter. Female musicians, such as Donna Summer, Dusty Springfield and Olivia Newton-John, gave listeners an earful with sultry songs that proved men weren't the only ones with sex on the brain.

Donna Summer's hit song, "Love to Love You Baby," was erotic and sexually suggestive with her soft, whispering voice and brow-raising moves. Dusty Springfield, who was a self-proclaimed bisexual, gave a similar feel with her 1967 hit song, "The Look of Love."

Olivia Newton-John was a little less subtle with her lyrics than the other female provocateurs of her time with her 1981 hit, "Let's Get Physical." While the music video portrayed the meaning of the song as literally getting physical while working out, Olivia's lyrics suggested otherwise.

While most of the artists who dared to sing about sex boasted wild, risky personas, such as Rod Stewart or George Michael, ever so often a sweet, innocent and mothers-adored musician or band released a not-so-innocent single.

In 1976, teen-worshiped Frankie Vali and the Four Seasons' hit single, "December 1963 (Oh What a Night)," gave the real-life details of the youngest band member, Bob Guadio's, loss of innocence and virginity while on the road with the band in 1963.

While the sex-talking songs of the '50s, '60s, '70s and '80s made waves and their fare share of controversies, the 1990s showed what it was to literally tell all.

Perhaps the most shocking and raunchy of songs to kick off the 1990s explored the much hushed and faux pas topic of not just masturbation, but female masturbation. In 1990, the year that put out sex song after sex song, the Divinyls, an all female group, saw one-hit-wonder success with the song, "I Touch Myself."

That same year, Billy Idol showed fans how to "Rock the Cradle of Love," Madonna asked men and women alike to "Justify My Love" and Chris Isaak vividly described sex's mysterious "Wicked Game."

Following suit, in 1991 two unknown bands, Color Me Badd and C&C Music Factory, also made it to the airwaves by shocking listeners with silly yet sexy one-hit-wonders, "I Wanna Sex You Up" and "Gonna Make You Sweat."

Not all singers of sex slipped into one-hit-wonder status after giving the details of their sexual escapades. In 1994, the popular and sexy R&B group Boyz II Men made women melt with their song, "I'll Make Love to You," shifting the tone of sexual music back to the romantic feel of the 1950s.

In 1997, two teenage newcomers hit the pop scene, singing about not-so teenage stuff. Britney Spears' first hit, " ? Baby One More Time," and her fellow rival pop-princess Christina Aguilera's first hit, "Genie in a Bottle," were so sexually implicit that they caused quite a stir among horny young boys, adoring young girls, disgusted adults and a very sexually frustrated first lady of Maryland.

While 2000-2006 hasn't seemed to push the sex envelope as much as past decades (editor's note: Don't worry, Timberlake is working on bringing sexy back. - Justin), it is most likely because talking about sex isn't nearly as big of a no-no and thus not as much fun to sing about today. Yet singers like Kelis and her "Milkshake" and Usher and his "Nice and Slow" still keep the sex alive in the ears and minds of curious listeners around the globe, and continue to be the ideal tunes for "making whoopee."

Most Ridiculously Raunchy Songs About Sex:



"Let's Get It On" - Marvin Gaye

"I Wanna Sex You Up" - Color Me Badd

"I Touch Myself" - The Divinyls

"I'll Make Love To You" - Boyz II Men

"Gonna Make You Sweat" - C & C Music Factory

"I Want Your Sex" - George Michael

"Let's Get Physical" - Olivia Newton-John

"Push It" - Salt-N-Pepa

"Rock the Cradle of Love" - Billy Idol

"Making Whoopie" - Gus Kahn

I think they left out loads (pun intended) of songs from Led Zeppelin, Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, etc.

Jim Morrison's dad: Son's death 'unfortunate'

Jim Morrison's dad: Son's death 'unfortunate'

POSTED: 10:58 a.m. EST, November 9, 2006

LOS ANGELES, California (Reuters) -- The father of late Doors singer Jim Morrison has broken his silence to share memories of his estranged son, who once sang about killing him and joked that his family was dead.

George Morrison, a retired U.S. Navy admiral, is one of the contributors to "The Doors by the Doors," an authorized memoir released this week. The book's author, rock journalist Ben Fong-Torres, also interviewed the band's three surviving members and Jim's younger brother and sister, among others.

"We look back on him with great delight ... The fact that he's dead is unfortunate but looking back on his life it's a very pleasant thought," George Morrison says in the book.

Jim Morrison, a difficult teen who rebelled against his father's military lifestyle, went on to become one of the most magnetic performers in rock 'n' roll.

But he disowned his family, and once made a throwaway comment that they were dead. He also referenced his parents in the Oedipal rant "The End," singing that he wanted to kill his father and sleep with his mother.

Andy Morrison recalls that his mother, Clara, who died last year, took him to a Doors concert in Washington, D.C., and asked to see Jim, but he refused to meet with her, and she drove home in tears.

The Morrisons surmise that Jim's hostility was really designed to shield them from too much attention.

"I had the feeling that he felt we'd just as soon not be associated with his career," George Morrison says. "He knew I didn't think rock music was the best goal for him. Maybe he was trying to protect us."

Adds his sister, Anne, "He liked mystique, too. He didn't want to be from somewhere."

Jim Morrison died of a heart attack in Paris in 1971, and his grave at the Pere Lachaise cemetery is one of the city's top tourist attractions. His family pays the authorities to take care of the site.

George Morrison said it was "quite an honor ... for the family" to have his son buried near cultural giants like Oscar Wilde, Edith Piaf and Frederic Chopin.

Rolling Stones in Twickenham Stadium, London 20.8.2006.

Rolling Stones in Twickenham Stadium, London 20.8.2006.

By Malc

It's been over 23 years since we last saw the Rolling Stones live. The date was July 1982 and it was the first of many concerts to feature big name acts performing in Roundhay Park Leeds. We are now in London to see them perform on their A Bigger Bang Tour. I know how much I have changed in nearly 24 years. I hope time has been kinder to Mick, Keith and the crew!
The venue is the Twickenham Rugby Stadium, used for England Rugby Internationals/6 Nations matches. It is a typical stadium arena, with 60,000+ capacity on 3 sides, plus floor seating at a premium price of £125 ( $190 ) and some on stage seating obtained through a ballot/lottery system.

As I approach the arena I resist the temptation to contribute to Mick and Keith's pension fund by forking out £15 ($25 ) for a brochure. Tight you might think, but £15?? Come on!! As my wife Val and I enter the venue it is already buzzing. It's a sell out . Great venue. All seated. I wish more citie sin England had a purpose built venue like this. It's really quite extraordinary that, citizens of a city the size of Birmingham (England's second city) have to travel to the likes of London and Manchester as Birmingham is consistently shunned by large acts on their tours of the UK because of the lack of a big enough venue.

A 60,000 strong roar erupts from the audience as, all at once, they get to their feet to greet the Greatest Rock and Roll Band in the World. The next 2 and a quarter hours fly by as the band effortlessly perform their set spanning 4 decades of music. The set goes from classics from the 60's such as Get Off My Cloud and Ruby Tuesday , through to crowd pleasers from the seventies Brown Sugar and Honky Tonk Women right through to songs from their new album, (Streets Of Love, Oh No Not You Again, Rough Justice). One of my overriding memories of the concert in Roundhay Park all those years ago, was Mick Jagger's enigmatic, pulsating and vibrant performance. Bearing in mind his advancing years I was half expecting his performance tonight to have been adapted somewhat. How wrong was I. For the whole 2+ hours Jagger gyrated and performed on stage with such an immense spellbinding presence it was riveting. Pure entertainment. Jagger's distinctive voice seemed as commanding as ever. He showed his versatility too with a rendition of an awesome Ray Charles number (Night Time Is The Right Time).

Ronnie Wood and Keith Richards put in stellar performances and looked very much the part of two haggered old Rock and Roll party animals. Charlie Watts held it together with aplomb throughout. Considering the length and the pace of the 2 and quarter hour performance, it's a real tribute to the stamina of Charlie who, at sixty four, is just months away from collecting his state pension. I'm not sure how much he is relying on the money from his state pesnion though!

There were great special effects throughout, particularly on Sympathy For The Devil (lots of hellfire flames) and the moving stage during Miss You. The sound was clear and the playing was precise, tight and fluid. Very powerful overall effect. I had not realise dhow good Keef and Ronnie were until this show.


From both a musical and entertainment perspective these guys are just consummate professionals and after tonight's performance , in my eyes , justly deserve to keep their oft touted title of The Greatest Rock and Roll Band In the World ( but only following the demise of the unbeatable Led Zeppelin).

Thank you Malc for sharing this review.

Led Surgery Jimmy Page

Led Surgery - antiMUSIC News

(Led-Zeppelin.com) Following arthroscopic surgery, for a recurring knee problem, Jimmy Page regrets to announce that his recovery has been slower than hoped for and he will not be able to join Roy Harper at the Rhythm Festival on August 5, 2006.
Although surgery was completely successful, Jimmy is still in the midst of ongoing physical therapy sessions to complete the treatment, and his doctors have advised against playing until recovery is complete.

All because of a bad knee!! Oh well, it's best to let it heal, but us fans have been waiting for Page to make a return to the stage for what...eons it seems, come Jimmy get the Led OUT!!!

Metellica To Induct Black Sabbath @ TRH

Metallica To Help Induct Sabbath To Hall Of Fame

Metallica.com is reporting that the band will help induct Black Sabbath into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame next week:

So there we are, hanging out at HQ getting ready for our first visit to South Africa, and a call comes in wondering if we can leave a few days early and stop by New York to induct a bunch of guys from Birmingham, England (they're called Black Sabbath, you might've heard of them) into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It took us all of 3/4 of a second to say "fuck yeah!!" Black Sabbath wrote the book on heavy music, and like many other snot-nosed kids, we read it religiously over and over again. For all of us in Metallica, Black Sabbath are a major influence not only on our music, but on our lives, and as you can imagine, we're psyched to join Bill, Geezer, Ozzy, and Tony for the induction ceremony on Monday, March 13th.

Not only will we be inducting Sabbath, we are going to make a humble attempt at playing some of their songs live in front of the gathered masses, including, most humbling of all, the four members of the band themselves.

***********************************

Metallica has had some pretty good gigs lately 1st playing as a warm up for The Rolling Stones and now Inducting Sabbath into the Rock Hall...very cool! Now if we can get 'Tellica to release a killer album!

Blondie Greatest Hits: Sound & Vision (CD+DVD)

Amazon.com: Greatest Hits: Sound & Vision (CD+DVD): Music: Blondie

Blondie Greatest hits Sound & vision CD/DVD set to be released on Tuesday March 7, 2006.

Go to hear exciting tracks by Blondie at Amazon. Preview songs like Rapture Riders--Blondie Vs. The Doors Bonus Track previously unreleased a song that meshes both Blondies Rapture with The Doors Riders on the Storm. Two of Rocks most sexiest together. Now that is HOT! Actually I like it a whole lot so will buy this disc just for getting that song plus a few remixes like In the Flesh and Good Boys Blow up Mix.

Being a Blondie fan it's cool to be able to get another Blondie CD/DVD even though it's another greatest hit one which does not have X-Offender which I believe should be in there as well.

If you go listen to the 'Rapture Riders' let me know what YOU think of it!

Sex Pistols Blast HoF

BostonHerald.com - Music News & Reviews: Hall of Fame? A Rotten idea! Pistols refuse to pony up dough for award show


The Sex Pistols, due to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame next month, fired off a nasty missive yesterday, refusing to appear at the induction ceremony in New York.

The seminal British punk band released a handwritten statement through its publicist and its Web site (thefilthandthefury.co.uk) blasting the Hall of Fame for asking the Pistols to pay $25,000 for a table or “$15,000 to squeak up in the gallery,” at the event.

Peppered with misspellings, the message likens the Hall of Fame museum to “urine in wine” and “a load of old famous.”

“Were (sic) not coming,” the band wrote. “Were (sic) not your monkeys and so what?”



Ever the Punks :) good going Pistols!! That's a lot of dough to fork over!! So with Sabbath not performing, The Sex Pistols not showing up, the whole show will be just Blondie's and Skynyrd's. Wonder what Debbie Harry will say if anything about the Pistols.
