Makin' Love with Love Music: Anyone Actually Do That?

[soren7550]

Ok, so while listening to some Barry White while faffing about here, I started thinking; does anyone actually do the no pants dance with this kind of music playing? It's never happened with me, and to me it seems like you're kind of setting the bar high if you decide to play some.

Alternatively, have you ever done it with any kind of music playing (if so, what kind)?

 

[DugMachine]

Well never intentionally but I've shagged a few times with tunes in the background. If I was planning on it maybe some softer more relaxed stuff. No vocals though just ew

 

[BloatedGuppy]

A few times. I guess it makes it somewhat more emotional. Depends on what you're listening to, mind you. If it's Leonard Cohen, you will give her 137% more orgasms.

 

[WolfThomas]

Yeah but not like Barry White, off the top of my head my girlfriend's playlist has some Iron & Wine, Sufjan Stevens, Neutral Milk Hotel, etc.

 

[hazabaza1]

Keeps the juices flowin' and the rhythm steady.

I've never had it set up to do at my place but a few times when I've been at a lady's place they have turned on music. I've noticed it lowers the inhibitions as far as being vocal since there is already sound taking place as opposed to moaning loudly in a quiet room.

 

[Total LOLige]

I am yet to partake in such activities but when I do I reckon I could get into a right rhythm with this song in the background.

 

[Duskwaith]

Ive had this show playing in the background but it was unintentional and they have this beauty of a song

This topic reminds of this mention on the internet a few years ago about musical condoms.

Exactly what it says on the tin, they were apparently able to have faster music the more... frenetic the rhythm for lack of better wording here.

I usually shag without music but when I do it is never "mood appropriate" in the traditional sense.
That song and that type of music are mostly what gets played during. I love banging to some metal, keeps things intense and interesting

Sometimes I pop in some Bob Marley though.

Pff.


Try having sex to this. One of two things will happen. The both of you will either be too busy laughing to actually do the dirty deed, or you'll pass out trying to keep up.

Or both. Either way, you have yourself a real challenge right here.

 

[NinjaDeathSlap]

Guile's Theme really does go with everything. That's all I'm saying.

 

[krazykidd]

Nope , never . I don't like music in general, so i avoid it wheneer i can . Hell , i would go out of my way to turn the music off before i do it , to hear the moans of disappointment of my gf.

 

[BarbaricGoose]

Never anything like Barry White, but White Snake once. I don't even like White Snake, but it was my Pandora's classic rock station and you can't exactly get up and hit the thumbs down button.

It actually wasn't bad. I quite enjoyed it.

Sounds odd to me... I didn't get when some horny tweenz go "I HAD SEX TO THIS W/ MY GF BEST TUNE ERMERRGERRD" on youtube comments.
All I can think is 'you sad bastard'.

I know music can drastically alter moods, but isn't sex supposed to be about two people who are already high on emotions with just each other?

I dunno call me ignorant but it doesn't strike me as something I'd ever do. And I can be an audiophile at times. I love great music. Not like that though.

Sex isn't a very emotional thing for some people though. So having some of your favorite tunes playing really helps keep it from being repetitive.
Or something. *shrug*

Well it helps to have masking noise if there are other people in the buildings. Particularly family type people. My ex was a metalhead like me, so we'd generally just stick an iPod list on...
One memorable time was when we stuck Animals As Leaders' first album on. That album is just insane. The time signatures go all over the place. So yeah... don't try to get into the rhythm of it like you might do whilst shagging to more relaxed music. That doesn't go too well.


One other advantage of having music on is that it means you've already got something to concentrate on/distract yourself with if you find yourself in need of the old 'think of baseball' trick.

 

[Sacman]

I got a couple songs, while not particularly love songs, gotta have that smooth love making sound, but they still have to rock...<.<


and of course, we can't forget...


Brilliance around 3 minutes in...<.<

Well, my boyfriend used to have an apartment-mate who asked us to just play music really loud to cover up the fact that I was wholly incapable of keeping quiet, so we had a play-list of belly-dance techno and eletcro-swing music to cover it up when he was home. As a synesthete, music can definitely color the experience (literally), so the music choice can be really important. I would suggest avoiding anything with lyrics and make sure whatever you pick has a good and consistent rhythm. You end up trying to match the rhythm of the song on instinct, and it can get awkward if it jolts around weirdly. But speaking as someone who cannot conceptualize the sensation of touch without an accompaniment of sounds and colors, I have no idea what it's like to have sex in the "quiet".
