Best sex songs ever.

Sleepwalk by Santo and Johnny.

Kashmir by Zeppelin.

Feel Like Makin’ Love by Bad Company.

99 percent of music just ends up making me laugh or get out of the mood if I try to leave it on at the time! Those are some of the few that do the opposite.

Ohhh and “Magic Man” by Heart. Well at least for a warmup. Ahhhh I know EXACTLY what she means 🙂

Every song in this thread pales in comparison to “Three Days” by Jane’s Addiction.

Wow. Good luck, pal, I think you’re gonna be waiting a while to find anybody who stays ‘in the mood’ after that little number.

Yay to the Dire Straits album, by the way, I highly recommend it for listening and for snogging. 🙂

Actually, “The Beautiful People” is the “climax” song on my best friend Sarah’s Fuck Mix. (She has the whole thing timed down to an art.)

Personally, I think “St. Louise is Listening” by Soul Coughing is an incredible sex-having song. The “baby doll” bridge makes me squirm, even just listening to it in the car.

Never actually used music, but now that I have a copy of “Songs  
from the Woods” by Jethro Tull I may have to consider it.

Chris Whitley’s first album, LIVING WITH THE LAW, particularly “Big Sky Country.”

Avoid Frank Zappa. You never know when you’re going to get to a song like “Why Does It Hurt When I Pee?” – and those are real mood-dampeners.
