Humping Songs

? by Miss_B
I don't mean to lower the tone of the board (well maybe I do) but this is genuine research...*ahem*

Me and some chums were talking about sex the other day and the subject of good fucking music came up. We crowned Prince as the King of Sexual Music (mmmmm mmmm), other contenders were Nightmares On Wax, Jeff Buckley and Bob Marley.

Does anyone have particular rumpo anthems that get the juices flowing?

For me its 'The Gush' by Raging Speedhorn. Heh...

Re: Humping Songs

Just for pure cheesiness (not a thing normally to mention in a sex themed thread) Barry White (Its Ecstacy When You Lay Down Next To Me), or Marvin Gaye (Let's Get It On, Sexual Healing).

Or maybe I should just shut up now....

Re: Humping Songs

best:
the first mars volta album
last two fugazi albums
kid a

worst:
beach boys: pet sounds.
i defy ANYONE to have sex to that album.

and why would a guy want to have sex to jeff buckley?
this better looking, more talented, sensitive guy sitting in the room with you, emoting.
doesnt sound like a plan to me.

I think it will be far more amusing to list music you should never have sex to.

I'll nominate Cliff Richard.

Re: Humping Songs

Mazzy Star : that's a great choice.
I'd add Low ( first album ) and Hannah Marcus.

I haven't tried, nor do I ever intend to try, that. Having just been listening to them, The Dillinger Escape Plan make, I think, possibly worse shagging music than The Fall.

Englebert Humperdinck - "Please release me, let me go" Erm yeah.

Also, most shallow: Jet. Imagine slowly making love to the girl of your dreams, while that whiny Australian twat goes "Hey, rollover DJ".

Or chav love: Fiddy Cent.

Or for truly worst ever: Rolf Harris, Two Little Boys. It'd be just sick.

Never try and fuck to something climatic like Godspeed. It's disastrous unless you time it right, which is pretty impossible.

Something rythmic and dirty's what you want: Dubnobasswithmyheadman or Second Toughest In The Infants by Underworld aint bad.

Either that or some nice, ambient droney stuff.

Re: Humping Songs

I'm having trauma right now, I can't get the image of the Nathan Barley sex scene out of my head from last week. Which was possibly the funniest sex scene ever broadcast on British TV, even if the rest of the show is patchy. Anyway, slamming on some dodgy reggae and then trying to arouse your girl in rhyming couplets is clearly the way forward.

'Hush ya mouth
While I go South...'

Re: Humping Songs

I roared when I saw that bit in Nathan Barley. 'Ok, you drop off, while I have a scoff...' Ha!

But music wise... I don't tend to use it much. Although I found that Papa M's 'Live From A Shark Cage' provides enough atmosphere to keep the 'old chap' up.

I think I've said too much there.

Jeff Buckley - "Every body Hear Wants You" is one of the sexiest songs ever.

I prefer something without lyrics though as it can be distracting. Blue States or something.

Re: Humping Songs

Um.
Am I the only one that can't listen to music during, um, the 'humping'?
It's a distraction. That I don't need.
Also, music can be ruined forever through such use - if I put on 'Relationship of Command' and then hopped on the job, I'd never listen to it in the same way again.
Although, if I were pressed to play something, it'd probably be Slowdive, MBV... something like that.

Re: Humping Songs

That's the problem - there are two things to concentrate on... I imagine that if I was 'indulging' to a song like 'My Generation' the temptation to yell out 'OHMYGODLISTEN TOTHEBASSSOLO!' would be intense. I'd end up concentrating on my fretting technique rather than playing the role of Mr Loverman.

That said, it doesn't happen often anyway

I'd say no music coz I don't have the foresight to remember what happens in an album and there is almost always something seriously distracting halfway through a CD. Plus I already associate most of my music with places, people, nights out etc, non of which is conducive to lurve...

Gutted I missed the comedy sex scene in Nathan Barley, other funny sex scenes that make me laugh are Alan Partridge of course and Robert De Nero in Jackie Brown....so funny.

Re: Humping Songs

An interesting topic indeed. I approve. I found having some sort of MP3 player on random became quite the hobby of mine for a week or so back in university days of promiscuity. I managed to successfully have sex to not only Hendrix's Cross Town Traffic but also Dillinger Escape Plan's Come To Daddy and The Beatles' Octopus' Garden. No word of a lie.

However, I cannot believe it has not already been commented on. It is by far the most obvious fucking album ever (and I say not commented on already with trepidation because my eyeballs may have magically obscured someone else's mention of it) - L'Histoire De Melody Nelson. Come on good people. It's orgasmic enough without hearing it whilst doing the nasty dance.
