Songs That Sex You Up

[dnt]

Maybe because I met Mr. DNT so young, I find that most of the songs that sex me up pre-date him in a big way. I recently heard The System's "Don't Disturb This Groove" and it brought back a lot of memories.

Based on a page ago, but I think Casino Bride and I would have wonderful musical sex. You know, if I were so inclined.

Total word on "This is Hardcore." And the hot robot love of the "All is Full of Love" video is enough to sex me up. One of my biggest fantasies is to perform karoke to Garbage's "Supervixen" and totally seduce a guy in the audience while doing it.

Goldfrapp did a cover of "Physical?" - oh damn. And "Twist" practically makes me want to go down on a girl. Again, if I were so inclined. I don't have their first album and have little desire too since it's allegedly very close to Portishead 2.0. Speaking of Portishead - "Roads" is oddly, disturbingly sexy and so is "Glory Box."

For unknown reasons, I was provoked to download some old Donna Summer recently. I guess somewhere in the recesses of my brain I remembered a Q article that sang the praises of the full album versions of the songs as opposed to the greatly truncated singles. 8 minutes of "I Feel Love?" Divine! But oh, holy mother of god - the full album version of "Love to Love You Baby" is so sexual, it's obscene. Listening to the song on a good pair of earphones is quite the, uhm, experience. I think Q described it as a 17 minute orgasm and, yeah, that's pretty much right. Even with the lengthy instrumental breaks and all.

Seriously, the singles pale in comparison.

Ahh, the story of my life - always married or gay... *sigh*

(But thanks anyway!)

I really do strongly recommend getting "Felt Mountain" (the Special Edition) - yes, it's very Portishead-ish, but there's the "Physical" cover... and, well, Alison... (need I say more?)

You are so right about "Love To Love You Baby" - I absolutely cannot believe they got away with that - what, over 25 years ago?!

I have more sexy songs... :

Almost anything by the Afghan Whigs. Hmm, Greg Dulli…

Almost anything by (solo) Bryan Ferry – he can do no wrong.

“Everybody Here Wants You” and “Vancouver” by Jeff Buckley – oh, dear God!

Lots of U2 – “Do You Feel Loved?”, “Electrical Storm”, “Ultra Violet”, “If You Wear That Velvet Dress, “With Or Without You”…

And

“Guilty Partner” and "Paradise" by New Order. *passes out*

Dude, I discovered that song when I was 11 or 12, and....

Yeah, I discovered some interesting feelings in my special place, as well.

I like All Nite(Don't Stop) by Janet Jackson and La Tortura by Shakira for sexy songs.

[zivvie]

Does no one know that magnificence that is Earth, Wind & Fire's Reasons, especially the live version? That song is practically X_rated.

I just heard the song "I'll Never Let You Go" by Steelhead. It may be a melodramatic, cheesy, 80's hair band song but I'm such a sucker for songs with a "we're square pegs that fit together" message. It made me all gross and sappy.

Oh yeah, "Wicked game" is one of the sexiest songs. Another one for me is "With or without you" by U2. I think its the beat of the drums, the way they pound...and pound. I'm sure I have tons more..oh yeah for some reason "My Sharona" does it to me too. It makes me want to be nasty.

[foxfair]

I know it's kind of pathetic song, but the guitar part in The Smiths' "How Soon is Now" makes me think dirty thoughts.

Damn, me too! The exact same thing. I think Nissan used that guitar bit a few years ago in an ad and I remember getting vaguely turned on by this Nissan flashing its headlights with the main guitar chord.

Um. ::worries about self::

Also agree with whoever mentioned Leonard Cohen. Who could possibly listen to "...going down so deep the mountains gonna weep/and the rivers gonna shout AMEN!" and not, I dunno, wanna fuck right. away.?
