Sexiest song of the year, every year, since 2001

A recent nostalgic playlist heard at a pool hall in Clerkenwell on Friday inspired this post. I have, since 2001, had a sexy song of the year. Invariably, they have been favourite songs because they have conjured a fantasy about whichever boyman I happen to be digging on at the time. And self indulgently, I find it fascinating to track how my sexuality evolved as I grew up. Some are triumphant love songs, some were teenage emo angst, some are simply lust songs, some are pure sleaze, some are high-speed passion, and some are intellectual connection. Here is my 2014 song - just the audio, because the video ruins it - effing hipster boys...

Ne'er say Never

He held her in his Celtic gaze

And there, he made his choice

Ne’er to shackle her bold, wild ways

And ne’er to quiet her voice

Four days and nights she did not speak

Her tongue was curs’d, she thought

Nor tears, nor smiles, nor food, nor sleep

Could cease her breath ne’er caught

The moon quite full, their nights, but two

His arms about her wrapp’d

And now moon new, two nights, too few

Yet purpos’d cupid’s trap.
