Title: Makeout / gettin' it on music
Post by: Divide by Zero on 16 Mar 2008, 16:35
I was inspired by the Sexiest Voices thread.

Dummy by Portishead is a given, as is almost anything by Lovage.

I've got Sex and Candy, Come Away with Me by Norah Jones, Banana Pancakes, Can't Get You Out of My Head (and an awesome a Capella cover by Basix), the Unplugged version of Are You Gonna Go My Way, and Come on Closer.

As you might have just figured out, I prefer individual songs to whole albums most of the time. That's how I download--song by song. When I want an album I go out and buy the physical CD, because I love looking at the album art, reading the liner notes, and other things you can only really get from having a physical CD in your hands.

Suggestions? Discussions?

Slow, intimate love-making is suited to the band Low, for example. Things We Lost in the Fire is a beautiful record in this situation.

Is it funny that I think (This is How We Sing) Amazing Grace is probably the best song for that kind of thing?

Its really weird cause pretty much everytime I get it on it accompanied by the sweet strains of music, and yet on one occasion for some reason entirely unknown to me we decided upon silence, and boy was that intense... I mean like in a good way.

Flaming Lips are also good for the raucous kind.

Dummy by Portishead is a given

I popped this record in last night, dimmed the lights, got out the grapefruit scented massage oil and upheld the above like so many before me.

The Stone Roses self-titled is lovely for a sensual night. Believe it or not, Veni Vidi Vicious by The Hives worked really well too.

I think that Broken Social Scene's You Forgot It in People would be nice to make out/bang to, as is most Boards of Canada.

Also, I think it's funnier to think of music that is completely unsuitable for sex-type-things. My favorite song now is June of 44's "Sharks and Sailors", and while there are beautiful chimey parts in between, it would probably not be good form to be shouting "SHARKS AND SAILORS" or "ON THIS DAY, I LOST FACE" while doing the nasty.

Or any Shellac. "Kill him, fucking kill him"? "I wanna have a fight with you"? And Big Black's Songs About Fucking.

Surely it depends. I've gotten down and dirty to At Action Park before, but if someone were to insist on Trouser Minnow on repeat then I'd be edging for the door.

But if we're talking Touch And Go bands it has to be Girls Against Boys. They ooze sleaze, if someone were to put them on at the right moment I'd know I was in for a good time.

I was relieved of my virginity to the sound of The Verve's Urban Hymns, and I relieved a girl of hers to Closer by Joy Division. That was slightly odd.

Dream pop is cool stuff.  I totally agree with whoever suggested You Forgot It In People, particularly the last few songs, "I'm Still Your Fag" and "Lover's Spit."  I once had a night with an old ladyfriend when we were still together, and "I'm Still Your Fag" was stuck in my head for some reason.  So, yeah.  It's weird listening to that song now.

Might I also suggest some (note: some) Frank Zappa.  Especially some of the quirkier songs.

To be honest, I kinda think Prince is more warming up music, than actual doing-the-deed music. It's better suited to making you feel sexy, than to actually being sexy. Like, if you put a Prince album on, then after forty minutes or so of you dancing around the room, slowly and suggestively unbuttoning your shirt and then buttoning it up again, wiggling your arse and throwing pelvic thrusts and making orgasm faces, I think your date might get bored of waiting for something to actually happen, and go find something else to do. Like watch T.V.

I've joked about this with Eugene and we came to the conclusion that trying to get it on with a girl in time to Dragonforce would be like sticking a jackhammer in her vagina.

Heh heh.  On the subject of songs with "Pussy" in the title, I've made out to Pussy by the Brazilian Girls many a time.  It's just happy fun music that makes people want to get all frisky and such.

But other more conventional fare would have to be:
Herbert - Scale
DePhazz - Death by Chocolate (recommended in the trip hop thread)
Pretty much anything by Nina Simone although some people might find that a little corny
Metric has already probably been mentioned, but I'll mention it again for emphasis
Also In the Bedroom After the War by Stars
Actually what the hell pretty much anyone who has at one time worked with Kevin Drew

Just so y'all know, the "let me put some music on and make you a drink" move is considered retrograde by many modern ladies (and has therefore become the move of choice among retro minded ladies who go to jazz clubs and wear hats).  Modern romances tend be conducted with snoggings on landings, or so I'm told.

I've done it to Nick Cave. The Abattoir/Lyre album is good for that sort of thing.

Lyre does seem like it would be good mood music, but Abattoir seems like it would be way too gospel.  Fantastic song, but if "There She Goes, My Beautiful World" came on in the middle of sex I think it would lead to game-ending laughter.

On the off-chance that I'm not missing a clever reference (I haven't seen any of the Zatoichi movies, or whatever they are), my avatar picture is actually from A Touch of Zen (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0064451/), an old Hong Kong action movie.

That being said, if you're looking for some cool atmospheric sex, traditional Chinese music...takes some getting used to, but could work well.

Touche. Although I'm not sure if you're mocking my taste in music or just creating a play on the titles...

Myself, I would never get it on to Air, it's just that people always seem to bring it up when you touch on this subject.

I basically think that all music is kind of awkward in the background, as soon as you start listening to it. It needs to be something that you can really just ignore.

This isn't AS bad as the fact that Elizabeth hasn't seen any John Wayne ever, but it's pretty close.

Holy fuck I would love to get it on to the theme from "Hatari!"

She hasn't? Liz, come to my video store in MHD and I will HOOK YOU UP.

PS I like any post-rock sans vocals and some with, like EITS. Plus anything with a baritone voice, ie Stephen Merrit and Jens Lekman et al.

You got the sweet hook-ups? Sounds like a plan, perhaps I will make a jaunt on over there at some point.

From experience, I've gotten it on to Suicide, Gun Club, My Bloody Valentine, The Microphones, The Stooges, Velvet Underground and sadly, Joy Division (that last one brings horrible memories.. and by horrible I mean hilariously awkward.)

Ah, a Squarepusher I haven't heard.  Loved Music is the Rotted One Note so I'm going to have to check that out.  In the spirit of Squarepusher, I'd like to recommend Crystal Castles -- Courtship Date, for a propos points, but only if you're energetic to keep up (and your partner is into that sort of thing...)

I am making two discs entitled "Sexin' Music" with Attempt A and Attempt B. Attempt A will be nothing but Dragonforce's Valley of the Damned and will be played just for the lulz. Attempt B will include the song you mentioned among several other fine pieces, including but not limited to "Tank!" by the Seatbelts, "Flux=Rad" and "No Life Singed Her" by Pavement, various traditional Albanian songs (bonus for a cappella by old-sounding men) and much more.

NIN

I'm listening to them now, and I could definitely see making smooches to them.
