One of the purposes of music has traditionally been to rouse the passions, yes? So, what particular performers or pieces get you in the mood just hearing them?
I’m looking for songs or artists that do it to you just by the art alone, not because of an association you personally have with them, (ie, “The first time I had sex, ‘True Colors’ was playing on the radio, and now I get hard every time I hear it” would NOT count.)
For me, the artists who do ‘sexy’ well are Leonard Cohen (I’m Your Man has my vote as the sexiest song of all time. OF ALL TIME!), Prince (Cream), and, laugh if you will, Tom Jones (I like his version of Kiss better than the original, and of course She’s a Lady).
On the other hand, Barry White is supposed to be supersexyzomg, but he never did it for me.
I once put Massive Attack’s Mezzanine album on while some folks were over for dinner, including a female friend of my sister. By the second, song, she said to me, “I’m sorry, but I’ve got to ask you to take off that fuck music.” So, I guess that’s a vote in favor.
Tons of dancehall reggae.
Anything by Rza or Ghostface Killa of Wu Tang…it’s thier voice that gets me.
Any kind of African drums type music.
Anything by Sade
Cat Whisperer, I am not a huge fan of Toni Braxton, but that particular song does do it for me. There is a dancehall version that I just love.
