Personally, the idea of getting "my goove on" to Barry White, or Prince or any other funk or soul music just gives me the boke and makes me go limp. Thus, I felt I would do my service to the world by compiling a small mix of alternative songs, for and about sex.

"I wanna hold you and make you mine
Don’t want to control you just to have a good time
Livin’ in ecstasy, well, when you’re layin’ down next to me
Ooh...ooh...wee, ecstasy, when you’re layin’ here with me, uh-huh"

tracklist

1	Violent Femmes : Add It Up
	"Why can't I get just one fuck? Why can't I get just one fuck? Maybe it's down to luck, but I've waited my whole life for just one..." SHOW MORE
	Track 1 from Violent Femmes Length: 00:04:43 Year: 1983

2	Portishead : Roads
	Picking one song from this band was no easy task, and I'm sure most people are aware of just why. I almost went with "Firefly" from the s/t, but ended up here, because that 16th note hi-hat groove is just so tight and it really just drives the whole song along and gives it a little extra push without making it to fast, which is perfect. That and the bassline about 3:20, oh baby. The strings might put you off a bit though... SHOW MORE
	Track 2 from Dummy Length: 00:05:09 Year: 1994

3	Orchid : Let's Commodify Sexuality
	"Sex sells more records than rock So let's fuck and forget the background hum" I love the lyrics to this song, and the other Orchid songs that touch on this, as it both condemns sex in advertising (something I personally dispise, not because I'm a prude, but I think it trivialises the most personal thing we have) but points out how the act of sex can be used as one of empowerment and self worth SHOW MORE

4	Mazzy Star : Fade Into You
	I think the title really says it all, but it's got that crucial just above mid-tempo feel to it for when things start heating up, that and it's got a really stong down beat which helps drive the song (and potentially more) on. SHOW MORE
	Track 4 from So Tonight That I Might See Length: 00:04:55 Year: 1993

5	The Cure : The Love Cats
	"We should have eachother for tea, We should have eachother with cream" J'adore The Cure, enough to probably spell that French phrase and really not care, but whatever. SHOW MORE
	Track 5 from Staring At The Sea: The Singles 1979-1985 Length: 00:03:39 Year: 1986
	Track Description: "We should have eachother for tea, We should have eachother with cream" J'adore The Cure, enough to probably spell that French phrase and really not care, but whatever. SHOW LESS
6	Explosions In The Sky... : Remember Me as a Time of Day
	This song was picked over the top of the rest for its lack of chaotic (well, to chaotic for this mix atleast) distortion parts, that and it's absolutely etheral and wonderful for this cause. Oh yeah, that bit where the drums come back in about 3:40 aswell... maaaaaaan! SHOW MORE
	Track 6 from How Strange, Innocence Length: 00:05:27 Year: 2000

7	Rilo Kiley : Portions for Foxes
	"And the talkin' leads to touchin' and the touchin' leads to sex and then there is no mystery left" This song has the added bonue of being goddamn catchy, allthough maybe a bit polished and toned down SHOW MORE
	Track 7 from More Adventurous Length: 00:04:46 Year: 2004

8	robert johnson : Little Queen Of Spades (Take 2)
	"Now, little girl, since I am the king, baby, and you is a queen Ooo eee, since I am the king baby, and you is a queen Le's us put our heads together, hoo fair brown, then we can make our money green" This song follows the classic blues way of being subtle smut, it appears to be about a female gambling addict, but... well, yeah SHOW MORE
	Track 8 from The Complete Recordings: Disc 2 Length: 00:02:17
	Track Description: "Now, little girl, since I am the king, baby, and you is a queen Ooo eee, since I am the king baby, and you is a queen Le's us put our heads together, hoo fair brown, then we can make our money green" This song follows the classic blues way of being subtle smut, it appears to be about a female gambling addict, but... well, yeah SHOW LESS
9	Yeah Yeah Yeahs : Bang
	"My skin tonight is a blazing but i don't think you're my type what i need tonights the real thing i need the real thing tonight As a Fuck son, you sucked [x8]" There is also that really filty and jerky feel to the Yeah Yeah Yeahs which just sounds like the aural embodiment of awkward teenage sexuality SHOW MORE
	Track 9 from Yeah Yeah Yeahs EP Length: 00:03:09 Year: 2001

10	Sunny Day Real Estate : 48
	Oh man, the verses for this song are so beautiful, the vocals and the guitars and the way that snare pattern sits so softly underneath it is just perfect, they also set up so well for the super loud chorus which has a real thrust to it (excuse the bad tasteless pun) SHOW MORE
	Track 10 from Diary Length: 00:04:46 Year: 1994

11	Earth : Raiford (The Felon Wind)
	This one is has to be my favourite, it's nice and slow (for those tender love making sessions) and it has a little bit of swing feel to add a slight groove to help you along. It's also got that slightly dark/depressing feel, but not too much so it won't cause any distractions. SHOW MORE
	Track 11 from HEX: Or Printing in the Infernal Method Length: 00:07:21 Year: 2005

12	Sleater-Kinney : Male Model
	"You always measure me by him Don't get me wrong I'm not opposed to something big" To be honest, it's more a song about female empowerment but it totally goes along with Violent Femmes and Yeah Yeah Yeahs for the awkward, jerky but somehow sexual vibe SHOW MORE
	Track 12 from All Hands on the Bad One Length: 00:02:32 Year: 2000

13	The One AM Radio : Thin Air
	It's that crisp lo-fi hip hop beat in the background and how it just sets up the guitar and vocals so well, this empitomises my view of songs that are great for fooling aorund to. SHOW MORE
	Track 13 from A Cloud's Fear Of Kites Length: 00:02:16 Year: 2004
