Truly sensual songs
 

i thought i might start a sort of quasi-companion thread to the <a href="http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=380038">"Truly beautiful songs"</a> thread...

so, what songs make you want to... ya know... "get it on"?

i'm talking about songs that have that underlying feeling of sensuality/sexuality... the ones you want to make love to...

if we keep this thread clean, it will be able to stay in the Music Talk forum, so please do so.

my list, off the top of my head, is as such (some of which could be cross-referenced with the "Truly beautiful songs" thread, i think):

"<b>Justify My Love</b>", Madonna
"<b>Let's Get It On</b>", Marvin Gaye
"<b>By Your Side</b>", Sade
"<b>Stir It Up</b>", Bob Marley & the Wailers
"<b>Lullaby</b>", The Cure
"<b>Young at Heart</b>", Frank Sinatra

...and i'm sure the list could be longer.
-di doctor-

NIN - Closer

"Let's Stay Together", Al Green

"I Love U In Me" - Prince

"Cherish The Day" Sade

"Careless Whisper" - WHAM

Prince...Scandalous

Sade...King of Sorrow(not so much the lyrics but the music)

Bjork...Pagan Poetry, Big Time Sensuality, Possibly Maybe

War - Meshuggah
Push th' Little Daisies- Ween
Ding , Dong the Witch is Dead- Wizard of Oz soundtrack
Cocktails for Two- Spike Jones
I Wish I was Adopted- Happy Flowers
Don't- Dinosaur Jr.

(or maybe that's just me)

Billy Paul - Me and Mrs. Jones
Marvin Gaye - Distant Lover

This is a weird one: Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes - If You Don't Know Me By Now

and basically anything by John Williams :eyebrow: (jk)

Esthero - Pretty much her whole album " Breath From Another "

I dunno, I gotta disagree on Lullaby by The Cure. I find that song to be downright creepy. The lyrics and the way Robert sings only make it that much creepier.

"All Blues" - Miles Davis

to each his own! i guess the reason why it's on my list is because, although to some degree i agree that it is creepy, it's also has the texture of a hyper-sexual song... or, so it is to me! ;)

"66" - Afghan Whigs

<i>When A Man Loves A Woman</i> - <b>Michael Bol...I mean Percy Sledge</b>

Anything by <b>Barry White</b>

Spoiler: Tame song title, but you never know:

<b>Candy Licker</b></i> (best song lyrics ever! Of course To keep it clean I can't put them here).

-Both by <b>Marvin Sease</b>

Wicked Game by Chris Isaak

Ok, a couple of these might not feel right playing while....err...doin' it, but all of them could get me "in the mood" :D

------------------------------------
Keep these far AWAY from the vicinity when you're trying to get in the mood, unless you're trying to lighten things up and need a laugh. I'm sure there are other good ones.

One of the best faux-sexy songs:
Debra - Beck ("Lay-day, step inside my hyundai") :lol:

Most unintentionally funny "sensual" songs:
I Wanna Sex You Up - Color Me Badd (tick tock i do stop...getting horny when I hear this)
Freak Me - Silk ("freak me baby, awww yeah"...still cracks me up for some reason)
You Remind Me - R Kelly (how any girl could get turned on by this song is beyond me)
