Help! What gets your hormones raging?

reigningcatsndogs · Sep 8, 2007

I know there's already a music thread going, but I am looking for help for one or two specific pieces for a scene in my novel. What is the hottest, sexiest, most sensual piece of music you can think of? I'm talking one that just with the first few bars gets the old hormones raging, the one that, if your life was set to music, would be playing when you have the most memorable (either real or imagined

) experiences!! And PLEASE!!! No one even suggest "It's Hard to be Humble"! Thanks for the help. I know I'll recognize it as soon as someone suggests it!

"Let's Get it On" -- Barry White

I know, TV uses that all the time, but it works for me

It's probably a personal thing, since music is so subjective. What are your characters into? What kinds of music? Justin Timberlake's Future/Sex/Love/Sounds album would be current and has a great beat.

At this point in time, I can take it any direction as far as mucial genre is concerned. I would tend to lean away from stuff like rap, because I just can't wrap my brain around that. Then again, I would listen to whatever is suggested and maybe broaden my horizons or rise to the challenge! The characters involved are in the over 35 group, if that helps narrow it down.

For me is would be Holy Water by Bad Company. Everytime I hear it I'm reminded of those first dates with my husband.....I need to stop thinking about those time right now......where is he. Maybe I need to call him and have him come home from work right now!

Kiss Me Idle by The Verve Pipe. DOWNLOAD IT.

This sounds sick...and it probably is, but

"Closer" by Nine Inch Nails...

For characters in the over 35 group, try Ravel's Bolero. That was the song used in the movie 10.

Ooh-ooh!!! GOOD ONE!!! I love that song! I don't care what Trent's saying; I still love it.

Hurts So Good, John Mellencamp.

It makes me think of smoochies in the grass on a sunny day. Yum.

Yup, that's what I need to hear -- the ones that make you recall a great day, or the ones that you imagine would be perfect for the occasion. Hot, sexy, romantic,.... Thanks for all the suggestions (reps for all!)

Yay! Glad I could help.

"Love Fool" by the Cardigans. Light, airy, sweet, kissable.

Esopha · Sep 8, 2007

Any and all versions of "Sway."

Not anything specific comes to mind, but turn on your local modern R&B station and listen for the slow, sexy songs to play. Pick the one that starts your heart a racin'.

Dina Moe Hum by Frank Zappa

Otherwise, to be honest, I don't listen to anything that could even be remotely hot or sexy. It's just not my thing.

Anything from Prince's Purple Rain soundtrack. Especially Darling Nikki.

Scrawler · Sep 8, 2007

Anything by Gato Barbieri works for me. His "Europa" is quite sexy. It reminds me of.... ah... never mind.....

What's wrong with The Bad Touch by The Bloodhound Gang? Love, the kind you clean up with a mop and bucket...

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm editing this:

Personally, I think Sade from the first Enigma album is hot.

Then there's Steve Winwood's What the Night Can Do. (No YouTube for this one)

The Eagles' Peaceful Easy Feeling works for me, too.

Yeah, that one definitely goes on the list!!! Thanks!

ETA: Umm, Thanks Scarlet, but I don't know if that really catches the mood I'm looking for.

I was going to say that too actually.

The_Grand_Duchess · Sep 8, 2007

Antigravity Love by Incubus. That song is sexy.

As is Closer and Slave for you.
