History DoubleEntendre / Music

* Julia Lee, like many blues and jazz singers in her day, laces several songs with plausibly deniable innuendo. On the surface, [[https://greatsong.net/PAROLES-JULIA-LEE,THE-SPINACH-SONG,101100891.html "The Spinach Song"]] is about trying the [[ThatCameOutWrong titular]] greens for the first time and learning to like them. "Somehow, it's always hittin' the spot / especially when they bring it in hot". Likewise [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PI9MWkk5T3c "All This Beef and Big Ripe Tomatoes"]]. Male singer: "I like to travel and I like to roam" Julia: "what I've got will bring you right back home". And finally , "Come and see me, Baby / but please [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_08OKSMdh_A don't come too soon"]].

* The German music video created by Jamster called [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=3MYdNMA8wM4 "Pussycat Tiger"]] which features a [[CuteKitten white female CGI cat character of the same name]]. The song mainly focuses on said character trying to charm and get a kiss from a male cat. While the idea sounds sweet, it can also be given a different meaning seeing her behavior throughout the music video including making suggestive moans, purrs, meows and body movements. This also appears to be the only music video featuring the character as of 2011.

I?m such a big ego, (hahaha)\\

** Also, its Tagalog version "Ting-a-Ling", by Filipino rock band Kerplunk, which was a cult favorite in the band's late-'90s heyday. The original version is not available on YouTube, but an [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8Z9-t5ssqg updated, popped-up version]] (with an outright reference to masturbation, which wasn't present in the original) is available on the lead singer's YouTube page.

* Music/{{Queen}}'s "I'm In Love With My Car" from ''Music/ANightAtTheOpera'' is either a sex euphemism (this is Queen after all) or it's a CarSong that even [[TopGear Richard 'Oliver!' Hammond]] would find a bit worrying: 'Such a clean machine, With the pistons a pumpin' And the hub caps all gleam'.

* By Big & Rich, the entire song of "Save a Horse (Ride a Cowboy)". You read that right- the song is actually named Save a Horse (Ride a Cowboy).

-->Wrapped tight around me like a second flesh of skin!\\
Cling to my body as the ecstasy begins!\\
Your wild vibrations got me shootin' from the hip!\\
Crazed and insatiable, let rip... and '''EAT! ME ALIVE!'''

** "The Assumption Song" by the Arrogant Worms does this without breaks, using rhymes:

** The album notes for "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" refers to Big Balls as "Not subtle enough to be a double entendre. It's more like a [[UnEntendre single entendre]]."

* Mike Mareen's "Don't Talk to the Snake". You probably [[FreudWasRight know what "snake" means]], and the lyrics may be interpreted as a warning against AIDS. This was in 1988, when the epidemic started to go public.

* Steven Curtis Chapman's song "Remembering You", written about {{Narnia}} but could also be about Jesus.

* "Squeeze Box" with TheWho. [[WordOfGod Pete Townshend]] says its just a song about a woman playing an accordion, deliberately written to invoke this effect.

* BillyJoel's song "Christie Lee" is about a saxophone player who meets a woman at his gig, who is impressed by his skill and comes home with him so he can "perform" for her. In case it wasn't clear, we get this lyric: "He couldn't see that Christie Lee was a woman/who didn't need another lover; all she wanted was the [[IncrediblyLamepun sax]]!" However the lyrics make it perfectly clear that Christie Lee isn't sexually attracted to him.

* The Philippines had so many examples of this in the early 2000s that double-entendre novelty music could have been called a genre of its own. While in the '90s, rapper Andrew E's sexually-charged lyrics left little to the imagination, writers of these songs (mostly troubadour of the masses Lito Camo) would hide sexual references or references to the male or female sexual organs in clever (or not-so-clever) puns. Acts known for these songs (who were mostly female) included Sexbomb, Mae Rivera, Selina Sevilla, Aleck Bovick, and the Viva Hot Babes.
