When I started dating again after my divorce, I put together a playlist of sexy songs, including Movement by Hozier and Stay by Rihanna and When I Get My Hands on You by The New Basement Tapes. I still stand by them all. Bonus: It’s an hour and 45 minutes, so you can take your time 😉
Do you listen to music when making out? Some of my friends crave quiet instead. “I want to hear my partner whispering to me,” said my friend L. “I want to hear our bodies. I want all my senses involved during sex; those sounds are a big turn on.”
And what about soundtracks other than music? “My fiancé was satirizing the type of voice you hear on public radio, but it got me…feelin’ spicy?” an anonymous reader once commented. “Turns out, my make-out jam is being told in a soft, low voice that it’s the biannual fundraising campaign, and if I donate now, I’ll get a free tote.”
What songs get you in the mood? Sade? ’60s French pop? The entire Moon Safari album by Air? I’d love to hear. Maybe we can make an updated playlist.
P.S. What song is playing in a never-ending loop in your personal hell, and, if you had a wedding, what was your first dance song? Plus, 9 on-screen couples with the best chemistry.
