Sufjan Stevens - I Want To Be Well

Four minutes of pent up frustration and worry all building up to a climactic chorus of "I'm not fucking around."

Yeah, it's a very punctual use that's shocking saying he's known for his relatively clean material.

"I wanna fuck you like an animal." I don't know, there's something beautiful about it in a fucked up way.

Also, I find something really depressingly beautiful about "you're so fucking special."

Also if you seriously don't know what both of these songs are I don't know what planet you live on.

While I'm not a big fan of NMH, elitist stuck-up assholes like you (and mecca if he wasn't joking, although he most likely was) are the worst people on the internet. Not everyone who likes music that you don't like is tone deaf or is stupid or any other insult that you could think of. I don't like Catherine Wheel. Does that mean that you have "tin ears"? No. Grow up and learn to accept that people like different things.

🤣 pot. kettle. black. My comment is made tongue in cheek, and you get pissed off and burn up with hatred. Who's the worst on the internet? 🤡

Also, elitists have nothing to do with me, so I laugh at that one, too 😁 If I were an elitist my top 100 list would look like 90% of the others here.

Maybe because they got labelled as shoegaze and came out of that scene, but only really made one album that fits that genre? 🫵

Can't really think of any worthwhile uses of the word fuck to contribute to this thread other than Afghan Whigs' "Be Sweet"

I just listened to all the posted videos (except the ones either blocked regionally or removed for copywrite violations).

I don't think people are really getting the whole "beautiful use" thing 🤣 The Belle and Sebastien piece is ok, but other than the title doesn't use the word as there's no lyrics there. Other songs are about as far from "beautiful" as I can imagine (Eels song has the nice piano, but his version of singing has always left me devoid of the emotion he's trying to convey - only a couple of their songs I can say I like). 😁

Are there no other examples of a melodic song using the word in a relatively non-harsh way other than what I posted?

As someone who adores shoegaze and thinks Catherine Wheel are really lame, I'm sure I could find a better one. Destroyer was always pretty good with those, even though I've probably been posting too much about them lately.

Rage Against the Machine - Killing in the Name

I really couldn't think of a beautiful use of the word, so I went with the angriest. Besides, this is a protest song. That's kinda beautiful, right?

Was listening to Light Up Gold by Parquet Courts all weekend.

Don't know if this is beautiful but hands down my favorite line is "Socrates died in the FUCKING gutter!"

Yeah it definitely isn't the most beautiful, but it's also one of my favorites. I love singing along with that.

Without thinking for more than 5 seconds,

"Stagger Lee" by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds: "...just count the holes in the motherfucker's head..."

"Working Class Hero" by John Lennon: "... but you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see..."

"Situations get fucked up
And turned around sooner or later"

Link

"I'll sit around and smoke cigarettes and babble what the fuck"

Link

This one actually blows my mind as to how "We were fucking corndogs" can feel so emotional.

Link

"But don't you waste your sins again
She don't need you or won't fuck your friends"

Link

Not quoting this one, its impact is only conveyable with 8 lines of lyrics.

Lyrics come in this one

This one too.
