I was listening to the radio the other day and they had the top 25 songs to "get busy to". Now I didn't get to hear the whole show nor which song came in at #1, however the songs I heard left me rather confused.
* Heart Shaped Box by Nirvana
Hmmm I'm not thinking lyrics like "I've been drawn into your magnet tar pit trap I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn black" would really turn me on.
Granted there were a few that made sense :
*Darling Nikki (originally by Prince) but covered by The Foo Fighters
"I knew a girl named Nikki I guess you could say she was a sex fiend I met her in a hotel lobby masturbating with a magazine she said how'd you like to waste some time and I could not resist when I saw little Nikki grind" Now that is a hot song, even the Foo's version will do.
My guess is NIN's Closer was #1 but i'd rather not know as that song is soooooo over played. I love NIN and they have so many other great songs, however you are not likely to hear them very often as Closer seems to take over the airwaves.
So what songs do you like to "get busy to?" (I think at this point i'd even welcome Heart Shaped Box into my room if I could find someone to spend some errr ahhh special time with haha)

Streets of Fire by Bruce Springsteen
wait, heart shaped box???
then again, I think I'm the only one of my friends not to lose their virginity during a Nirvana song.
I have a playlist in my itunes labeled "Sex Mix."
'Nuff said.

Ouch. That bruise looks painful on-screen.
As for the music - Tom Waits or Prince or Hansen. Scratch that last one.
Sugar Sugar - The Archies.
Okay not really.
Let's Get It On - Marvin Gaye
Say Goodbye - Dave Matthews Band
First of all, awesome bruise!
I couldn't help but laugh at this...
I had to check WIGSF's profile to see if I was one of his friends and didn't know it, as Heart-Shaped Box was one of the songs that was playing when I lost my virginity.
I'd like to think my taste has improved since. If I were to put together a sex mix now, I might go for a blend of old school soul (Al Green, Curtis Mayfield) and contemporary ambient alternative (Death Cab, Arcade Fire, Stars) with maybe a little new age to mix it up (Enigma and Deep Forest comes to mind).
Michael - I think it was a symptom of our generation. Here's the usual situation, a couple of teens going out, hanging out at one partners house, parents are out for the evening, little bit of booze stolen from the parents liquor cabinet, some cheap weed bought from the guy who deals in the school library or the local donut shop. Just enough booze and weed to get the girl to agree to pretty much anything. Okay, thats pretty much every generation, but our generation, who was the big band in our teen years, Nirvana. NIN, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden were there too, but none as big as Nirvana and their man-pretty, martyred lead singer Kurt Cobain. I'm telling you, Kurt was panty-remover for pretty much every girl I went to high school with.
Actually Heart Shaped Box is one of my fave songs of all time... though I agree it's not one to get busy by.
There are lots of good songs to get busy by. You could have different mixes depending on if you were in the mood for sweet and romantic or down and dirty. I'll get working on making those mixes now actually...
Man, your bruise puts mine to shame! That is a honker. The music thing is a tough question. I like the moody music of the band "Massive Attack".
ps
they do the theme song for the show "House"
Jeez! Ash, no wonder you're not getting any action, what the heck is that thing on your leg! Bleh!
"Fade into You."...shit, now I can't think of her name.
Mazzy Star?
I have to agree with you on the Closer being way over played (it was #1, by the way)
If it makes you feel any better the top five did include Tool Stinkfist, super hot. I also found Heart Shape Box perplexing as Nirvana never made me want to get busy.
