best seconds in music (2022)

some seconds I have really enjoyed this year....feel free to share yours

greg puciato/reba meyers "lowered" - 2:16-2:18
this was the bit that actually prompted the thread creation....a tiny little addition to the second chorus that appears nowhere else in the song. I'm sure there's a proper musical/compositional term for this but it makes me grin every time. lovely little bit of song-writerly business.

birds in row "trompe l'oeuil" - 2:38-??
"hey, this is a nice one....oh, it's gotten a bit heavy, huh?.....oh."

enemy jail "ain't going back (to enemy jail)" 2:16-2:32
if you want me to take your jokey rock concept album seriously you're going to need a melodica.

freddie gibbs "dark hearted" 3:03 -> "gold rings"
the way the harp crops in, then becomes part of the "gold rings" beat? that's craft baby.

callous daoboys "star baby" 3:54-4:05
every single time these horns drop in, no matter where I am or who's around, I throw my arms in the air like a goddamn goofball

lambchop "daisy" 1:28 // slipknot "adderall" 1:04
the two times this year I was briefly convinced I had nabbed corrupted or mangled files. always nice when music still has the capacity to surprise you.

alvvays "belinda says" 1:49-2:09
I'll egress to Inverness with nothing in my pocket
belinda says that heaven is a place on earth
well so is hell....

 

the star baby one for sure. the last 34 seconds of ohio by caracara too, when the heavy riff comes in
