The softer beat drops create an interesting vocal dynamic as they both quicken the pace of the song and get louder, only to slow back down after the chorus. The vocals in the song are raspy yet controlled and timed perfectly with the ever-present beat, providing that perfect formula for a rock song. And, while that might be a drawback for some people, it sets up an incredible guitar riff that will have your feet dying to stomp along. ![]() The introduction of this song is reminiscent of a Home Depot commercial, or those weirdly homoerotic Ford ads with the deep voiceover. Something about the uplifting beat and incredible vocals just gives that much needed boost at the end of my walk.

It’s one of those classic rock songs that played constantly on the radio in the early 2000s and, despite the NSFW material, reminds me of listening to music in the car as a kid. ![]() And “Sex on Fire” just sticks in your head, no matter how many times you listen to it. ![]() It’s one of those songs that you forget about until you find it again, discovering that you remember almost every catchy lyric.

We all have those songs that get us just the right amount of hype on our walk to and from class, whether they’re classic rock, blues or sad indie.
