let's talk about sex, bb


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.

    whoa great post Britt!!!!!
    And 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.

    Love this post!

    MGMT'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."

No Time to Fuck: The Goldfrapp Essay

Konnichiwa! This is Irina Cummings and I'm here to discuss one of the most brilliant, innovative, and creative artists in the entire history of mankind: Goldfrapp – or as I like to call them , GODfrapp – the fantastique, highly inspirational, and sometimes criminally overlooked electronic music duo from London consisting of Alison Goldfrapp and Will Gregory, whose godly music has certainly influenced the vast majority of today's synthpop ladies, including Lady Gaga, Little Boots, La Roux, Annie and Florence + the Machine (not electro but still worth your while). They're primarily known for their mind-blowing music (which have spanned pretty much every style of electronic music – and some non-electronic as well), their abstract, sexually ambiguous – at times forthright – lyrics which are often not gender- specific , and their elaborate shows, not to mention the amazing visual aesthetics of their work, conjuring images that masterly complement ...

Give JR a Break

Recently, I've been reading some sites that have criticized James Roday, the lead actor on the USA show PSYCH for an apparent weight gain. But you know what? Who gives a flying fizzle stick if James Roday is slightly larger than he was 4 years ago. Apparently, it wasn't enough to scare away his current girlfriend/ co-star Maggie Lawson. (Who is one hell of a Catch!) And NO they are not engaged. That seems to be nothing more than a rumor, but there is a very high chance of it happening in the near future. Anyway, as long as PSYCH continues to entertain I don't mind about James Roday's waist. He, and Dule Hill, and Corbin Bernson too, can eat all the fried broccoli they want. The last episode of PSYCH wasn't so smashing, but I don't blame it on dietary issues. QATFYG: Are you keeping up with Psych? And who is hotter, James Roday or Maggie Lawson? (Trick Question but idk why) PS: If you have heard any more news on Roday and Lawson becoming Roday-Lawson, send it...

Full Oscar Recap

For starters Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin were great hosts. I really liked their chemistry and humor, but I wondered how they would get through without a musical number.....then there is Neil Patrick Harris to save the day. So like I said, Miley and Taylor were out of line....and I really did not like how when Miley was up on stage with Amanda Seyfried and she says "We're nervous, it's our first time up here." OH come on, like you've never presented an award before, and you've also been to the Oscars.....Not to mention Amanda S. presented the special last year with R Patz about Romance movies. More Recap, Monique won as predicted. Christoph Waltz won as predicted. Jeff Bridges won as predicted. Sandra Bullock won as predicted. All of which were Great and Followed with Great Speeches. I love how Sandra said in the Baps interview that if Meryl Streep won, she's gonna "kick her ass." Also Christoph Waltz was so good. He was unbelievably good in ...
