Let's make a ''self love'' CD

How many songs are there about masturbation? I’m sure that we could compile a CD’s worth of material for it. So far, we have:

She-Bop by Cyndi Lauper
I Touch Myself by The Divinyls
Rosie by Jackson Browne
Turning Japanese by The Vapors
Blister In the Sun by the Violent Femmes
Dancing With Myself by Billy Idol

I’m sure there are many others that I’m not thinking of.

Barrel of a Gun by Guster.

Iko Iko.

What?! Think about it… Jackin’ off me all day…

Some people…

I read somewhere that “Pump It Up” by Elvis Costello and the Attractions was about, er, self-love. It had something to do with the “No use wishing now for any other sin” line.

Dance on My Own by Robert Plant.

I’ll say it before, and I’ll say it again. Marquee Moon - Television is the best album to jack off to ever recorded.

Or is that more info than you needed?

“Longview” by Green Day

Well, for self love, you just can’t top The Most Wonderful Girl by the Lords of Acid. Check out the lyricshere.

What does “gordious” mean? :confused:

Turning Japanese is about masturbation? I thought it was just about sex in general.

Not to forget Bernadette Peters’ unforgettable rendition of “Making Love Alone” on Saturday Night Live.

I can’t believe no one has mentioned “Pictures of Lily” by the
Who.

“Pictures of Lily,
Solved my childhood problem”

One More Minute by Weird Al Yankovic has a line about being left at the “gas station of love” and being “stuck at the self-service pump”.

Not about masturbation, per se, but Lady Picture Show by the Stone Temple Pilots is about a pornography stash.

I forget the artist, but the song is called The Stroke.

Oh, and Good Vibrations by the Beach Boys.

Thinking of You by A Perfect Circle: “Tugging a rhythm to the vision that’s in my head…”

How about Tori Amos’ Icicle, combining religion and self-love? There’s a combo bound to make some folks mighty queasy…

key lyrics:

And when my hand touches myself
I can finally rest my head
And when they say take of his body
I think I’ll take from mine instead

Getting off
Getting off
While they’re all downstairs
Singing prayers
Sing away

Right Hand Man by Mucky Pup

“Orgasm Addict” by the Buzzcocks…Can’t put it any plainer than that!

“Get a Grip” by Semisonic
Menocchio, are you thinking of Billy Squier?

Also from the Buzzcocks: “Palm Of Your Hand”.
