some people never forgave linda for taking the biggest slut of the 60s off the market as it were

I assume that goes for a lot of the ostensibly straight boomer rock guys too since they would never shut up about how pretty he was and how he should have done better (married jane and kept fucking around I guess)

You are proving my point, Alfred.

"For No One" is def. ice cold. But I am failing to see evidence that Paul was some toxic misogynist if that, indeed, is what is being suggested by some here.

I always thought Junior's Farm was nonsense lyrics, but it's actually a clever little thing about capitalism, isn't it? Looking forward to One Hand Clapping coming out.

?? There's one line about inflation, that's all I can see. The poker stuff is about Beatle/Apple breakup negotiations, innit

I don't find any of the Beatles a bit attractive. Maybe young George? But he would've sulked me to death.

not sure why I posted that it seemed vaguely relevant to the fucking discussion

there are some really hot ones out there but this isnt a thirst trap thread unless the thirst traps are songs which he has plenty of

I find each of them attractive or unattractive at different times in different eras

but close to it. "sing the changes"!

"fluid" on rushes is the nearest he ever approached bitches brew (released just a month or two before let it be)

This has been pegged by the more excitable tabloids as a hate rant against Heather Mills

lol i'm sorry but this word choice is a low blow

Yeah, but specifically about MONEY and how it's earned. Or not earned, you just have to play the game. And what happens in the seats of power - "We all chipped in for a bag of cement." And what someone is willing to do for a couple of pence.

Re. sexuality in his songs - "Alligator" on New.

timellison, Monday, 6 May 2024 22:31 (one week ago) link

coldblooded, that one

the talented mr pimply (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Monday, 6 May 2024 22:32 (one week ago) link

Actually, the next song on that album ("On My Way to Work") also.

Re. sexuality in his songs - "Alligator" on _New._

Other than the titular alligator, the lyric to that song sounds an awful lot like he just wants somebody there when he comes home.

Actually, the next song on that album ("On My Way to Work") also.


And on this one, he’s glancing at a Maxim-ish magazine while picking up trash on a subway platform.

What’s next, one with him leering at the semi-nude corpse of a fellow nursing home resident?
These are possibly the least sexy songs in the history of sexy songs.

Naive Teen Idol, Wednesday, 8 May 2024 13:49 (one week ago) link

are old people not allowed to be horny? or do you want more appropriate expressions of horniness whatever that would look like? I mean the queen is dead so what do you want from him

and he already made the most unsexy sexy song ever decades ago it's called temporary secretary

Left, Wednesday, 8 May 2024 14:08 (one week ago) link

My nursing home crack probably made that sound more ageist than it was intended. I just don’t think either of those songs are sexy or carnal in any way. They’re mostly just kind of sad and lonely.

This catchy motherfucker OTOH …
