Title: Comic: Music to listen to while having sex?
Post by: rampy on 12 Feb 2011, 12:59
A while back I seem to recall there being a comic that listed a couple of bands as recommended for the above.
I can no longer find said comic; does anyone know which one it was?

On a related note, what other tunes would you recommend during sex? Fire away!

I prefer listening to the noises my partner is making...  much better than any music.  ;)

Jean-Michel Jarre's "Oxygene". 

I got two vinyl LP copies and put it on a changer so I wouldn't have to flip it halfway through...

And I haven't played it in years.  Read into that what you will!

There's also a reference here: http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=123 (http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=123)

Air and Sigur Rios.

My girlfriend and I delight in playing completely inappropriate artists during these "activities". Such bands have ranged from Slayer (I seem to remember Dora playing Reign In Blood during sex, come to think of it) to Venetian Snares to Agalloch to Adam Lambert to the theme tune from Pokémon. Neither of us are really into the more "traditional" artists to play, like Barry White. I guess you could say we're kinda weird?

Someone needs to link that XKCD comic about not leaving your iPod on shuffle during sex. I had that happen. Seether switched to Weird Al. That was awkward.

(XKCD #400, found by remembering the song played and using the on-site search :p)

To the contrary, using the shuffle function is how many of those bands I mentioned come up in the first place. :-)

Which I think is exactly the point...

True. It's not always shuffle though; sometimes we pick out the inappropriate songs deliberately, other times we let my library decide what it wants to play. I still remember the time it played Psychobilly Freakout by Reverend Horton Heat. :p

I guess most people wouldn't be as into the act with this sort of music? I think we just like having something on in the background, and it amuses us if it happens to be something that doesn't usually get played in that situation. *shrugs shoulders*

My last boyfriend had a thing for Journey. He loved looping their stuff, but especially "Don't Stop Believing".

...The Glee version.   :psyduck:

My brother claims to have won sex. Apparently he got his lady to climax during the chorus of a particular song that went something like "She's coming... She's coming..."
(The song was actually about going drinking with friends and hiding from your pyschotic wife, but the point still stands)

I think his lady is probably equally if not more responsible for that.

If I'm in a "making love" sort of mood, then it's Nina Simone. I'm not generally big on jazz, but I love Nina Simone and have several of her albums. I Want a Little Sugar in my Bowl (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZm0jYXZ_2I) just gets me in the mood.

When I'm feeling "friskier" I like Karsh Kale. Good bass, nice pace and I like the Indian fusion. Gives it a little spice.

Edit:

If I really feel like bangin' it out ... Lords of Acid.

Being one of those people who simply can't resist singing along (terribly), that sort of thing has never gone well.

Yes. Nothing like a little Rover Take Over.

I sit on acid. Lover Boy Lover Girl. Is a big fat HELL YES. Mmm.

The lack of Brian Eno in this thread is a true shame.

What kind of relationship do you have with your brother where you're talking about each others' sex lives.  :psyduck:

A little too open, apparantly. 

Although from the sound of the story, it was just too good not to share it with someone!

Hey now.. I have a open family, we discuss porn, and sex. Not too much in detail in our sex lives like what position. But I mean my father once told me when I moved out "Come home anytime, but if it's at midnight, call and warn us before you walk in. I might be having sex with your mother on the couch."  :psyduck:

Well, that's a pretty typical empty nest reaction.  I mean, you've got the whole house to yourself again...

Barry White

Any song by Marvin Gaye... That is all.

Or Michael Buble's version of Can't Help Falling in Love.

That would be "My Wife", by The Who. :)

Santana - Abraxas.  The whole album. or as much of it as you can get through

Drums/Space from any live Grateful Dead recordings, like Dicks Picks.

Love and Rockets

The The, if you like your sex dark and brooding.

Toto IV in its entirety.

Thats 41:59 of sweet love making right there.

Works well for Africa: "Gonna take some time to do the things we never haa-eaa-aa-ve". Fits perfectly.

Irish drinking songs.  Okay, not seriously, but that was what was playing my first time getting laid.

For preference, blues music.

Am I the only person who never has music on during sex?  Does everyone just play music all the time and that's how it happens?  I would feel pretty awkward and my wife might get annoyed if she was all up on me and i was like wait let me go turn on itunes.

I certainly have no need for music nor find any enhancement from it being on during sex.

I would say it's a distraction, and should be turned off.
