Lyrical Layage

On the board that I currently live in there is a section called Flame Wars. That's where all the naughty, curse-y, not-safe-for-children stuff happens. A while back a fellow named Eldi (No, not his real name. You want his real name, you ask him.) started a thread titled "If you could have sex with...". It was a really neat idea. Instead having us think about who we would like to boink, we were to say what song we would like to boink. It stumped me. I love music, and I will listen to anything once. But what song gets under my skin, makes me want to have sex with it's bad ass non-corporeal self? It bothered me that I have never been affected in that way by a song. The songs that I like the most tend to be the one's that make me have a strong emotional reaction. Not because they make me think of something that gives me a strong reaction, but because they (the song itself) gives me a strong reaction. For instance :

• Never Again by Nickelback - Anger. Boiling blood anger. It pisses me off. I feel so light after listening to it.
• Ojos Asi by Shakira - Elation. When I dance to it I feel like I am dancing in the clouds every time.
• Fuel by Metallica - Excitement. My nerves dance and I feel as though if I stand completely still the world will implode.
• Return to Me by Dean Martin - Sadness. I have never cried while listening to it, but I ache inside.

It's obvious, at least to me, that music has a direct connection to my blood. I need it, to the point where if I don't hear some sort of music after a few hours I start to sing, creating it myself. Yet it was so hard to come up with a song that made me feel SEX. There are a lot of sexy songs out there, but none that every struck me so hard that I wanted it hard against the wall. Until a week ago. While watching So You Think You Can Dance I saw an exciting Jazz routine by Sonya. And while I didn't pay much attention to the music at first it followed me. It stood at the edge of my mind singing to itself until I couldn't take it anymore and found a copy of it. So.

• The Garden by Mirah - Sex. I feel it throughout my body. The beat drums up all the vital parts of me, while her voice touches all the sensitive spots. It's not even that outstanding of a song, lyrically, but damn. Her voice plus the beat and I'm in a puddle on the floor.
