Lovemaking Music

Kind of a risqué topic, but I wanted to make a (tongue in cheek) playlist of appropriate music for the appropriate mood, understand? Hint; this is not appropriate, and neither is this, if only because the latter is kinda [[Freud Was Right hard to live up to.

I'll start with the most cliché of all:

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

PENETRATOR HAMMER!

Only Death Is Real

Another very cliché, very cheesy choice I love:

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

True facts: Pioneering jazz pianist and bandleader "Jelly Roll" Morton started his career playing in brothels. He would match the tempo of his playing to the rhythms of the customers, and made sure his songs climaxed the same time they did. SO SEXY

Anyway, try some bossa nova.

• Antonio Carlos Jobim!
• João Gilberto!
• Astrud Gilberto!
• Stan Getz and Charlie Byrd!
• Stan Getz, Astrud Gilberto, João Gilberto, and Antonio Carlos Jobim!

The well is deep.

Or maybe tango? Astor Piazolla's Zero Hour is the only tango album I've heard, but it's just so good.

I really really like Havalina Rail Co's "The Love Song", but the rest of the album isn't nearly as sensual.

I've heard of people getting it on to Shoegazing music. Like My Bloody Valentine or early Starflyer 59.

If you don't mind a lot of deliberately goofy innuendo, I recommend Lovage, particularly "Stroker Ace" and "Book Of The Month".

Also, "World In My Eyes" by Depeche Mode, which might be as sexy as Synth-Pop gets.

The answer is easy: The Weeknd and Frank Ocean.

Inhale.

Exhale.

I’m surprised Marvin Gaye’s “Let’s Get It On” has not been mentioned. Or has it been used as the punchline to a joke one too many times?

Albums I have actually made love to:

• Espíritu: Crisálida*
  I had just received it in a tape trade and wanted to listen to it. Then the guy I was with and I started getting freaky
• Joni Mitchell: Blue

Confirmed Bachelors: the dramedy hit of 1883!

Insert witty 'n clever quip here.

One of the better sex songs. It's surprisingly smooth for AC/DC, especially the first few lines. She said she'd never been... never been touched before...

Some more smooth, sexy songs:

J.J. Cale - After Midnight
Muddy Waters - I Just Want To Make Love To You
Kool & The Gang - Jungle Boogie
Ray Charles - Night Time Is The Right Time and of course What'd I Say
Stevie Wonder - Higher Ground
ZZ Top - Sharp Dressed Man
Sam & Dave - Hold On, I'm Comin' (hurr durr)
The Rolling Stones - She's So Cold

In the end, though, I think the best sex music is Jimi Hendrix's Band Of Gypsys album. It's lush, it radiates virility (like all of Hendrix's material) and it has enough sheer wah-wah to make any pair of panties mysteriously disappear.

Mache dich, mein Herze, rein...

Just get this album

"I could eat a knob at night" - Karl Pilkington

Gentlemen. It was as simple as playing this

and *woosh*, we were swooped into a spontaneous makeout session like you wouldn't believe. This song is freaking powerful, boys and girls, it felt like Gone With The Wind levels of romantic/awesome.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

And if you're in a completely different kind of silly mood, this is awesome:

'Shaft! He's one mean mother—' 'SHUT YOUR MOUTH!'

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

Isaac Hayes is tha man!

A friend of mine recommends Steve Reich’s The Desert Music.

I imagine if you want to have a marathon of tantric sex to epic, orchestrated electronics, X by Klaus Schulze could be an interesting choice.

Confirmed Bachelors: the dramedy hit of 1883!

Absolutely anything off the incredible "1965" by the Afghan Whigs, but ESPECIALLY this song.

If you're feeling like a Latin Lover, there's always Juanes.

Together, we are one.

Bit of a necro. If you don't mind the people handclapping...

I picture two robots in the sack while this plays on the radio.

First of all, terrifying, effed-up sex music ftw!

• Nine Inch Nails - "Closer" (of course) and "Sanctified"
• The Cure - "Siamese Twins" (the most disturbing sex song ever, IMO)
• The Sisters of Mercy - "Some Kind Of Stranger" (starts off a love song, turns into a rather desperate deconstruction of such- remains hypnotic all the way through)
• Depeche Mode - "Fly On A Windscreen" (Death is everywhere- hold me. That's pretty much it in a nutshell)
• Jane's Addiction - "Ted, Just Admit It..." (Here 'cause I have a friend who apparently screws to this- don't ask...), "Three Days", "Then She Did..."
• tool - "Parabol/Parabola" (very strange choice, but there ya go...)
• Massive Attack - "Angel"

And, on a less freaky note:

• Depeche Mode - "Blue Dress", "World In My Eyes", "Personal Jesus" (about half of Violator, really...), "I Want You Now" (porno samples!)
• Journey - "Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'" (not just cause of the lyrics- its slow, rhythmic nature really suits it too), "Lights"
• Funkadelic - "I Call My Baby Pussycat", "Loose Booty", "Miss Lucifer's Love", "Let's Make It Last", "Red Hot Mama", "I'll Stay", "Sexy Ways" (early Funkadelic had MANY good ones, but I stuck to the slower/sleazier ones for this list- the rockier stuff's a bit aggressive for the activity in question)
• Isaac Hayes - All of Hot Buttered Soul (but ESPECIALLY "Walk On By" and "By the Time I Get to Phoenix"), The Isaac Hayes Movement (even the cover of "Something", somehow...), To Be Continued, the Shaft soundtrack (especially the previously-posted title track) and much of Black Moses. Can't have this thread without Isaac...
• Stevie Wonder - About half of Talking Book, Innervisions, Fulfillingness' First Finale and Songs In the Key of Life. Yep, too many to name...
• Led Zeppelin - "Trampled Underfoot", "The Lemon Song", "Custard Pie"
• Massive Attack - "Protection"
• Portishead - "Sour Times", "It Could Be Sweet"... Ah, who the hell am I kidding?! Most of Dummy and the self-titled album are suitable.
• Smashing Pumpkins - "Siva", "Rhinoceros", "Crush", "Suffer", 'Rocket", "Soma", 'Mayonnaise", "Luna"... They have a SURPRISING number, IMO.
• My Bloody Valentine - "Soft As Snow (But Warm Inside", "Lose My Breath", "Feed Me With Your Kiss", "Only Shallow", "To Here Knows When", "Blown A Wish", "Soon"... Again, MANY. Shoegaze in general is good for this kinda thing...
• Cocteau Twins - Again, too much to list hear. Heaven Or Las Vegas and Victorialand are particularly good records for this. Also, Dream Pop in general, when it's not terrifying...

Wow. Overly long post here.

Please tell me your friend's partner is a) living and b) a willing participant.

Uhm... did you know those songs are actually about break-ups?

Or how about Neil Cicierega's remix/mashup, "Rollercloser", from the album Mouth Silence? "I WANNA [Get down!] LIKE AN ANIMAL!"
