one of the topics on Twitter got me thinking yesterday. best sex songs? HMM.
now I've not had a lot (or any) sex, but when I imagine it, with Swedish supermodels, this is what's usually going on in the background:
Jeff Buckley!
"Grace"
I'm not allowed to embed videos, but between that voice and those looks. holy shit! Jeff Buckley will always give me a (metaphorical) erection.
anything off the "Grace" album should get you into the mood. esp. if your significant other is a laydee. guys! listen up!
Broken Social Scene
I would say either this or "Swimmers." shit, anything by BSS really. have you heard their cover of Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart?"
IT'S TIME THAT WE GREW OLD AND DID SOME SHIT
Feist!
mostly, just this song, her cover of the Bee Gees' "Inside and Out":
Gwen Stefani in this video:
"4 in the Morning"
Phoenix (and Air, sometimes)
"If I Ever Feel Better"
Annie
who, let's face it, I want to marry.
The White Stripes
and basically anything French:
Serge G + Jane B and their orgasm song
their daughter's, "The Operation:"
Camille
okay....maybe I'm too easy.
SO WHAT PUTS YOU IN THE MOOD, READERS?

p.s. apologies to Al! I was working on this before I left for MEADVILLE/GOD'S VAGINA this morning and my computer crashed. 3
whoa great post Britt!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd no worries.
My music for the mood is Labyrinth's "Kathryn."
Shakira Spanish lyrics versions, "Pepper" from Butthole Surfers, Journey, and most MacDonald's jingles.
"You can't more for your money because MacDonald's makes it RIGHT!!" I love it.
I hope people know I'm *not* joking.
ReplyDeleteooh, I was going to add the Carpenters but I ran out of time!
ReplyDeleteLove this post!
ReplyDeleteMGMT's "Electric Feel." Humping (the air, the wall, another person, a small dog) is imminent.
"Backstroke" by The Evening Episode. It's like an aural orgasm. Pun very much intended.
Also, TV On The Radio's "Staring At The Sun" and "Wolf Like Me."
Ha, I finally got it. I couldn't remmeber her name all night, so I had to look it up. It was Donna Summer who wrote the jingle for MacDo they remixed. Donna Summer. my mind was blank.
