    Idk if sleaze is supposed to mean a specific style/genre or if you just mean any music that feels sexy+sketchy, I’m going to assume the latter and go with Of Montreal - Faberge Falls For Shuggie

    For sad/depressing songs it depends on whether I’m voluntarily indulging in some existential angst or genuinely trying to cope with sad shit I’ve been subjected to. For the former it’s Tom Waits - Tango Til They’re Sore. For the latter it’s Pinback - Autumn of the Seraphs.

    there was a lost media song that reddit was looking for and it turned out if was from some old porno and the original person had cut out the longest part that didn’t have sex noises over it.

    all my depressing songs are deeply personal reasons, saddest song that wouldn’t dox me i can think of is johnny cash’s cover of hurt

    By sleaze do you mean sleazy as in gross in a predatory way? Sincere question, idk if “sleaze” is otherwise slang for something.

    Favorite sleaze? I kinda missed that genre, unless stuff like the Strokes count? I guess something by the Strokes then.

    As for depressing songs there’s a song about addiction called “For Marlon” about heroin addiction and it’s extremely raw, cuts right into me, by a singer named Soko. I can’t mention it without also mentioning her song “Been Alone Too Long” which is also depressing and beautiful but a little more hopeful.
