“Things That Scare Me” by Neko Case
From the album Blacklisted (2002)
“Things That Scare Me” by Neko Case appears on 1 radio countdown from 1 station in 2024. It was first released in 2002 on the album Blacklisted. Its best result is #538 on The Best Opening Tracks of All Time.
"Things That Scare Me" is on Blacklisted, the third album Neko Case released on August 20, 2002, the record where she stepped away from the alt-country sound of her first two solo albums. Blacklisted leaned on a roster of guests, and three of them, Joey Burns, John Convertino and Dallas Good, turn up here: Burns on acoustic guitar, tenor guitar and organ, Convertino on drums and Good on 12-string guitar, with Jon Rauhouse adding banjo.
Case sings it and mixed it herself with Alf Annibalini, Mac McGill and Darryl Neudorf. The album drew warm reviews, with most of the applause going to her voice, and Paste heard in it a singer who stayed dark and a little out of reach while still hanging on to her twang.
