Intercourse with You: Difference between revisions

'''Stewie:''' Intercourse with you-oo-oo-whoo! Right?

'''Brian:''' Yeah, no, great, that sounds good.

 

Let's face it, there's only [[Freud Was Right|one thing nearly every living person has on his mind]], so it honestly shouldn't come as that much of surprise that ''most'' songs you're ever going to hear over the course of your entire life are gonna be about or closely related to that one thing. People seem to really like hearing about it, and people seem to equally really like singing about it.

Sometimes, '''Intercourse with You''' [[Obligatory Bondage Song|gets kinky.]] Well, kinkier.

 

{{examples}}

==Examples by genre==

** "Sky rockets in flight! Afternoon delight!" Harmless elevator music, until you actually listen to the lyics.

** [[Word of God]] stated that it was actually about Washington, D.C. restaurant Clyde's. Now whether one believes that or not...

* Cyndi Lauper's "She Bop" is about as thinly veiled as possible, though it refers to a solo rather than a duet. [[A Date with Rosie Palms|As it were.]]

** See also "Icicle" by [[Tori Amos]].

* The Divinyls' "I Touch Myself" is, like "She Bop", about a "[[A Date with Rosie Palms|solo effort]]". One ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]'' episode had Buffy reveal she spent most of one summer in her room listening to it, and then admitting she had no idea what it ''meant'' [[Late to the Punchline|at the time]] (or at least claims not to have known). Incidentally, the band insists "Touch Myself" is not about masturbation, but touching ''other'' parts of yourself in a loving way.

** Another Divinyls example: "Pleasure and Pain".

* [[Madonna]], of course, had a lot of these in her early career.

** About half of the ''Bedtime Stories'' album is straight-up porn music. Complete with heavy breathing.

* [[Jason Mraz]]'s "Geek in the Pink": ''I can save you from unoriginal dum-dums/Who wouldn't care if you com...plete them or not.'' Also, think about "in the pink" for a second.

** See also [http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=16547 "Butterfly"]: "I went home, and I thought, 'I'm going to see if I can't write a song that a young woman would want to model her shoes to.'"

* * NSYNC's "Digital Getdown" wasn't fooling anyone at all about its subject matter. It didn't help that when they performed it live, one of the members would lick the stage.

* "Let's Make a Night to Remember" by Bryan Adams is rather blunt, even for a song in this category.

** And he loves pointing out that "Summer of 69" isn't about a year.

*** Although the song's co-writer Jim Vallance said it is, and Adams just improvised the "me and my baby in a 69" line at the end of song. Still, that line's part of the song now, so yeah...

* "Touch Me (I Want Your Body)" by Samantha Fox.

** And "Naughty Girls Need Love, Too", to an extent. Fox is [[All Women Are Lustful]] incarnate.

* [[Miranda Cosgrove]]'s ''Sayonara'': Doing a sexy purr for a [[Title Drop]], the implications of the bridge, oh boy. Doubles as [[What Do You Mean It's for Kids?]].

* Sandra Cretu's ''In the Heat of the Night''. The lyrics imply the narrator's willing and total surrender in losing her innocence from the man's seduction with a strong touch of [[Deal with the Devil]] ("You lose your heart and sell your soul, it's much too late to leave the trade"); [[Alternative Character Interpretation|Or]] just simply, [[The Oldest Profession]].

* The Backstreet Boys' first album had "If You Want it To Be Good Girl (Get Yourself a Bad Boy)". [[Sarcasm Mode|What, praytell, does "it" mean?]]

** [[Old Shame|They later regretted the song]]; the label wanted it to be their first American single, but the band rebelled.

** Eighty percent of Virus' songs are this. "El Probador" is about quick sex in a fitting room.

* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ImRyPymRAM PEOPLE ARE STILL HAVING SEX!]

* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgEdFXJ-huw Relax by Frankie Goes to Hollywood] was banned from the BBC and MTV because of this trope.

* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUAl1H9_-G0 The Way You Love Me] by Keri Hilson.

* "Love to Love You Baby" by Donna Summer. That song '''is''' sex. Summer literally mimics an orgasm as she sings. And then there's "Hot Stuff".

* "Half The Way" by Crystal Gayle. You could, if you worked on it for a while, come up with a ''somewhat'' innocent interpretation of the song, but with lyrics like "Fill me up to the top/ and don't stop/ till i'm overflowing", it's pretty clear that the singer prefers to be left hot and sloppy, and her guy just isn't quite measuring up.

 

=== Metal ===

** "The Only Time". I mean, Trent Reznor even used to introduce the song by saying, "This is a song about fucking."

** Wait. A good portion of Trent's career is built up on songs about sex! "Kinda I Want To" (come on: the title), "Sin" ("I gave you my purity/my purity you stole" sets the mood of the song, as does the music video), "The Only Time" (as mentioned above), as mentioned, "Physical", "Closer", "Reptile" (the whole song is about screwing a prostitute), "Big Man With a Gun" ("I am a big man, yes, I am and I've got a big gun/got me a big ol' dick and I like to have fun" etc.), "Deep" ("all I can do/driving on through/into you"), (by some interpretation, at least one line) "The Perfect Drug" ("you make me hard/when I'm all soft inside"), "With Teeth" (the whole song, basically, although some say that the woman is a drug metaphor), "Sunspots" ("she turns me on/she makes it real/I have to apologize/for the way I feel" & "fuck in the fire", though same as With Teeth)... and much, much more. Altough, Trent is Trent so [[Your Mileage May Vary]]

** [[Freud Was Right|Some are mistaken for sex]], such as "Come Together" (written for Timothy Leary's failed attempt to run for Governor of California) and "Please Please Me" (allegedly about oral sex, but John just liked repeating the word).

** A lot of the Beatles' early songs, from when they were still considered the "clean" alternative to [[The Rolling Stones]], are like this. Particularly, there's the chirpy "Hold Me Tight" - it sounds like another cute story of teenage love until "Making love to only you..."

we were naked in my bed }}

* Obscure Boston based punk band Tijuana Sweetheart (formerly Vagiant) has a song entitled ''Second Coming'' that is (we swear) entirely about giving Jesus a blowjob. No. Really.

** [[Role Models|You see, Ronnie, his * dick* is the gun!]]

** Quick rule of thumb with KISS: if Gene's singing lead, the song is about banging groupies.

*** [[Squick|Even WORSE:]] "What I've got you've got to give it to your mama(/papa/daughter)"

**** Which suggests it's not, in fact, about sex. At least, not all of it.

** "Sir Psycho Sexy". Period. It even has the [[Bow Chicka Wow Wow|pornofunkywahwah]] guitars.

** Or anything on (as you might expect) the ''Blood Sugar Sex Magik'' album. "Sopping wet her pink umbrella/do the dog with Isabella." Et cetera et cetera ad (sometimes literally) nauseum.

** "Kiss That Frog". The entire song is an unashamed metaphor for placing lips on, err...something else.

*** In fact, it would probably be easier to list all his songs which don't include at least one innuendo.

** Furthermore, there is a character in ''Sky High'' who can turn into water. [[Power Perversion Potential|So...]]

* ''Hotel California'' by The [[Eagles]] contains several lines referencing sex, including one about "mirrors on the ceiling."

** It was conceived as an anti-rape song from a woman's perspective. Cobain also admitted that it probably was also influenced by how he felt about media intrusion on his private life.

** And while "Rape Me" is told from the victim's POV, "Polly" is from the rapist. "Polly wants a cracker / Think I should get off her first"... but Kurt Cobain was shocked to see it found a [[Misaimed Fandom]] with actual rapists.

** Completely blatant, as the singer flat-out states that they had sex in the [[Auto Erotica|back of his truck.]]

** On the other hand, "Figured You Out" is a lot less subtle... though it still never uses the word "sex".

 

=== Hip-hop/R&B ===

* "Let's Get It On" and "Sexual Healing", both by [[Marvin Gaye]].

* [[R. Kelly]] don't see nothin' wrong with a little Bump 'n Grind.

** Ignition. Not Ignition (Remix), mind you. Just straight up Ignition.

* "Oops, Oh My" by R&B singer Tweet is the same subject as "I Touch Myself" without half the subtlety.

* Nelly Furtado's song "Promiscuous" is pretty straightforward. "Maneater", though, she claims to be as much about the demands of modern life as sex. "Say It Right" seems just like a love song, but then comes the last lines: "From my body I could show you a place God knows/You should know the space is holy/Do you really want to go?".

** Specially "I Wanna Fuck You" (the airplay version is "I Wanna Love You").

* [[Florida]] takes songs that weren't originally about sex and heavily samples them in songs that ''are'', such as "Right Round" (sampling Dead or Alive's 1984 hit "You Spin Me Round (Like A Record)") and "Sugar" (sampling Eiffel 65's 1999 hit "Blue (Da Ba Dee)").

** Oh, wait..."You Spin Me Round (Like A Record)" ''is'' about sex. It's just a bit less explicit about it.

* [[Mariah Carey]]'s "Touch My Body".

** I'll see those two, and raise you "Would you Mind?" from ''All for You.'' The lyrics are filthy enough, and subtle as a flying brick, but it really gets out of hand during the last minute of the song. (She stops singing and just fakes an orgasm.) ...At least, we ''hope'' she was faking.

* Timbaland & Justin Timberlake's "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_K4Eke2VXqo Carry Out]" combines this trope with ''fast-food'' metaphors:

* Teddy Pendergrass: "Close the Door". The 1996 version of ''[[The Nutty Professor]]'' has Sherman listening to this track and cheering Teddy on.

** From the same film: "Somethin' 4 Da Honeyz" by Montell Jordan.

* [[Chris Brown]] has a lot of these, especially on his latest albums. One song, "No Bullshit" is blatantly about this. The first two lines are "3 in the morning/You know I'm horny".

* Gucci Mane's "Sex in Crazy Places," which also features [[Nicki Minaj]], Trina, and Bobby V, making it the veritable "We Are The World" of songs about having sex on rollercoasters. [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?]]?

* ''Too Close'' by Next. You'd be surprised to know the song was basically detailing a guy [[Raging Stiffie|getting an erection]] at a nightclub—and hoping to God the woman he was dancing with wouldn't know. He was a little too late for that:

{{quote|Step back, You're dancing kinda close

I feel a little poke coming through

** The fun part is that the quoted line ''isn't censored at all'' by most radio stations. A little [[Lyrical Dissonance|cheery music]] goes a long way.

* Brian McKnight has a song that includes the lyrics "Let me show you how your pussy works/Since you didn't bring it to me first". The rest of the song is so dirty that he was approached to sing it at the porn industry's AVN Awards.

* Mohombi's "Bumpy Ride": "I wanna boom bang bang with your body-o... Girl let me rock you rock you like a rodeo..."

 

=== Rap ===

* In [[Simon and Garfunkel]]'s "Cecilia", while there isn't any question about what was going on ("Makin' love in the afternoon/With Cecilia up in my bedroom"), surprisingly few people catch on why a guy would wash his ''face'' after having sex.

** The song came out in 1970, before most houses were air-conditioned. And it was the ''afternoon'' (hottest part of the day) ''up'' in his room (hottest part of the house).

** "Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard" had the same rumor: Julio was supposedly a dog.

* One of the more straight forward interpretations of [[Depeche Mode]]'s "Behind The Wheel" is the song being about female domination.

* "Shave 'Em Dry" by Lucille Bogan. From '''1935'''. [http://www.cracked.com/article_17625_songs-from-your-grandpas-day-that-would-make-eminem-blush.html No, really (#6 on the list)]. More innocent time, my ass.

* ''Bat Boy: The Musical'' features an ''interspecies orgy'' set to a catchy musical number, "Children, Children."

* Voltaire has a song about [[Star Trek: The Next Generation|Data]] which uses every half-assed [[Techno Babble]] euphemism in the book... and then some.

** Ah yes, the Sexy Data Tango. "...and cause a quantum singularity in your transwarp conduit"

* Inverted by [[The Village People]], of all bands, with their album ''Sex over the Phone'', which carries an underlying theme of 'safer sex' in light of the AIDS breakout in the gay community in [[The Eighties]]. The title track, [[Captain Obvious|obviously enough]], is chiefly about phone sex, but true to the spirit of the trope, carries some graphic imagery in its lyrics: "I just touch my princess and I go crazy"

* Lovage's sole album ''Music To Make Love To Your Old Lady By'' is entirely a tongue-in-cheek parody of this trope, juxtaposing smooth trip-hop with often, er, significantly less smooth innuendo "Licking your greasy spoon / jukebox playing my tune/ making out in your room / blowing up your balloon/ playing you like a bassoon"). That passage is sung by [[Mike Patton]] by the way, who intentionally makes it seem more creepy than sexy.

* [http://www.discogs.com/Lil-Louis-French-Kiss/master/9593 French Kiss] by Lil' Louis is an undisputed classic of Chicago house. The only vocals in the song are a woman in the throes of passion. The song also cuts out the kick drum and drops to a slow tempo in the middle, only to build and speed up back to full tilt for the climax. The more recent Drum & Bass bootleg remix by Ed Rush & Optical keeps the same structure, but peaks at a very, er, athletic 175 or so beats per minute.

* The chorus of the [[Vocaloid]] song [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8qZ1y-BlGo SPICE!] leaves little to the imagination.

**** For example, anything by Blind Willie McTell (I'm lovesick baby, you got me graveyard bound/gonna make you moan like a graveyard hound IIRC), Terraplane Blues By Robert Johnson (I'm gonna get deep down in this connection/keep on tangling with your wires), and John Lee Hooker's Boom Boom (entirety of)

*** The last third of Ray Charles' "What'd I Say" is essentially a session of rough sex set to music, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thDyO9SCIIw&feature=related and it got broadcast on TV] [[Getting Crap Past the Radar|in an era where sitcom couples had separate beds!]]

* "The Bad Touch" by The Bloodhound Gang includes the well-known refrain "You and me baby ain't nothing but mammals / So let's do it like they do on the Discovery Channel." Many of their other songs use this trope in [[Squick|rather disturbing ways]].

** It's been parodied by [[Machinima]] artist Nyhm in his song [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xciuYTeu4Qc "Hard Like Heroic,"] which is made up of euphemisms for sex combined with [[World of Warcraft]] references. "Hard like heroic, more than you can handle / So let's do it like a Druid in the general channel."

* Tonio K had a song that was up front. "Sex With You."

{{quote|"I think I'm supposed to have sex with you / Pretty sure I'm supposed to have sex with you..."}}

** They used Olivia Newton-John's "Physical" in some Fitness-themed animatronic [[Care Bears]] dolls. How the hell did '''THAT''' slip past the [[Moral Guardians]]?

** Kuu is well known for this. "JUICY", "Cherry Girl", "Hot Stuff", "Shake It", "NO TRICKS", and "Get It On" and more.

* Subversion in the Dresden Dolls song "First Orgasm", which one would naturally assume to be about masturbation but is really about the [[Sadness Tropes|soul crushing emptiness of going through your everyday life knowing you're completely alone]].

You might as well scream }}

** Of course, Melissa being Melissa, there is also plenty of bitterness about lesbians not being accepted in that song.

{{quote|How bad could it be

If you would lose yourself in me

** In the live version (at least the one I saw) they show [[Hentai]] and porn pictures on large screens above the stage.

* The Scorpions' "Rock You Like A Hurricane". It's right there in the title. And really, how else could you make sense of lines like "Desire's coming/And breaks out loud/Lust is in cages/Till storm breaks loose/Just have to make it/With someone I choose"?

* [[Erasure]] - "Sometimes", and much more blatantly, "Sexuality". "Strip it--we've got obvious intentions..."

* Most songs by E-Rotic.

 

== Fictional Examples ==

* In the classic [[Mockumentary]] ''[[This Is Spinal Tap]]'', interviewer Marty comes upon Nigel composing a lovely, quiet song, which Nigel says is inspired by Mozart and Bach. When Marty asks its name, Nigel replies "Well, this piece is called "Lick My Love Pump"."

** Well, Mozart ''did'' write "[[wikipedia:Leck mich im Arsch|Lick me in the arse]]"...

** Is this actually considered fictional anymore? Spinal Tap's released a few albums and had tours since the fake movie.

** To a lesser extent in the same song:

{{quote|The Moon to the tide

I can feel you inside }}

** Tara's expression at that line makes it clear that she knows exactly how you're gonna take that.

* Used in an episode of ''[[Modern Family]]'' when Hayley's boyfriend performs a very... explicit song he wrote for her ''to her family.''

{{quote|Rim licking/ Clit flicking/ You're the stuffing/ I'm the chicken/ Said we're clicking/ You're still licking/ Clock is ticking/ Stick your dick in

In this club they cannot tame us/ On the dancefloor tongue meets anus/ Boy I need you in my South Pole/ Put your star into my black hole }}

 

* Chicago...and all that jazz.

* [[Spamalot|And I too have found my Grail!]] [''What's That??''] [[The Musical|Musical Theater]]!

* The musical ''[[Wicked (theatre)|Wicked]]'' gives us the [[Getting Crap Past the Radar|radar-evading]] love duet between Elphaba and Fiyero. Lines like "I'll wake up my body / and make up for lost time," and Elphie's seductive "I feel ''wicked''" near the end make their intentions pretty clear.

** ... But it also makes the line "If it turns out it's over too fast" a bit unintentionally funny.

 

* Several songs featured in the [[Dance Dance Revolution]] franchise have very steamy lyrics and moaning sounds [[Lyrical Dissonance|set to very danceable tunes.]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zS9XyrCH9E Do It All Night]? [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8idojb8cyo Oh Nick Please Not So Quick?], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fGOrOeZ7qyc& Turn me on]? Suuuuubtle.

 

 

=== [[Web Original]] ===

===[[Western Animation]]===

* In ''[[Bob's Burgers]]'' there is a pianist named Tabitha Johansson who [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmy9CTn6xMs sings a song] about an oil spills that is clearly about her vagina (characters even point this out).
