Lovemaking Music
 

Just this last weekend I got with a chic that I met at some keg party. When we came back to my apartment I figured I would put on some music. Now, I have never done this before, but I found that I really like having music in the background, not loud.

I played some Eric Clapton which has a great mellow sound and sort of lovey dovey lyrics that I thought fit perfectly. Problem is I need more stuff to play. Doesn't have to be wussy and I don't really want anything really cheesy like Berry White or music made for sex. Just good music that goes well with it.

Here's a fun one.. Innter Circle - Sweat

One thing that you should most definitely NOT play is Hanson - Mmmbop.

It'll kill the mood so quickly..

:D

One that worked for me with a girl I dated was Nirvana Unplugged.

Bolero - ever watch the movie '10' ?

Good suggestion. That is a great album.

Good call on the Hanson Temp, lol.

check out 'Sade' to woe the girl for a nice romantic evening..
or 'Nine Inch Nails' for some hardcore raging action :)

It depends so very much on what you and she like, but here are some ideas:

A cliche is Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon, but I'm guessing that might be ok, based on your affinity for Clapton (in the sense that you seem ok with Classic Rock)

To be different, try some of these:
Peter Gabriel's "Passion" (all too timely)
The La's (the last song is great b/c it's long and gets faster and faster)
If you want some down and dirty banging, go with NIN or something else that's industrial-ish

Plastikman
Sasha

However lovemaking for me is a little...weirder...than for other people :D

dan the automator came out with music to make love to your old woman by. sounds catchy enough, though probably won't go over too well with your date

Here are two nice threads to add to the responces here.

As I said in one of them Portishead is wonderful background music for sensual acts. Especially this one song by them called "Beautiful".

Sad thing is, my girlfriend loves hanson, so that would probably put her in the mood quicker. As for me... boo.

Oh dear god...

[edit]Guess I should say something constructive for this tread.

Just sampled some Sade songs. Simply amazing, great romantic music. Thanks Lord Humungus.

i agree, sade is a great choice. you could also try some enigma, very erotic.

If a girl starts making out with you to "Captain", by Ween, then that's the girl you have sex with, then marry.

On a less specific note, I find that some Cowboy Junkies or Morcheeba tends to fit nicely during sex, as do other things. Furthermore, I wholeheartedly recommend the entire "Without You I'm Nothing" album by Placebo to those that like minimal foreplay, followed by to-the-point rough sex, then by a lengthy post-coital repose with the partner. Again, it's very specific, but goddamn is it ever worth it! :D

I preffer Theivery Corporation, Shiva Chandra or Claude Challe (in that order) over Enigma.

The best, hands down, is

Type O negative_October Rust. Just press play baby...The lyrics are awesome and there is deep bass that just keeps going(not rap bass, but....just download/buy it, trust me)

open arms by journey

Lost my virginity to that.

However, for Love Making, gotta be Barry White. For Sex, Led Zeppelin, preferably "The Ocean" - just something about 7/8 time. For Fucking, Iron Maiden - just hard and nasty legs over the shoulders banging away music.

coldplay. as far as being able to just put on an album and not worry about editing a songlist... this is a pretty good bet most of the time.

Coldplay, yes. Also, if you want to simultaneously screw and cry to nice, mellow instrumental music, try Godspeed You Black Emperor! (it's not always mellow, but most of the time it is in my experience)

coldplay. yes. here, here.
another few albums with the same benefit ...
zero 7: simple things
air: moon safari
elliot smith: either/or
mazzy star: she hangs brightly

... all of these are kinda dreamy/hazy/passion inducing ...
