From girl in red to Dusty Springfield, these artists have made some sensual melodies
BY SOFIE ROOS
Looking for sexy songs to play while having hot solo sex? Here are eight tunes made by sapphics that you can play to get in the mood.
Oxytocin — Billie Eilish
Her voice is wet, the rhythm is great to match your pleasure to, and the bass is sexy. In many ways, this is an optimal masturbation anthem.
bad idea! — girl in red
The Norwegian queer icon and singer-songwriter Marie Ulven, better known as girl in red, is a must-play when touching yourself, and if you’re new to her, I really recommend checking this track out. The lyrics are about a strong and impulsive desire that leads to decisions we might regret later — perfect for when you want to lose yourself in your own lust.
Pussy Is God — King Princess
This queer star has written this catchy, yet relaxed and sexy R&B indie pop song that’s perfect for everyone enjoying a smooth, playful and groovy feeling when being horny.
Tightrope — LP
LP is one of my favourite lesbian artists. I get completely thrown away by their intense voice and melodies, and the song Tightrope is absolutely perfect to play if you’d like to forget everything for a while and just float away on an intense and emotional feeling. It will make your solo pleasure time feel like a scene taken out of the sexiest sapphic movie.
It Gets Better (With Time) — The Internet
If you like smooth and laid-back R&B vibes that really put you in the mood, then I think you’ll like this one by The Internet.
Heart’s Content — Brandi Carlile
If you’re more into the acoustic folk-rock vibe, then check out Heart’s Content by lesbian musician Brandi Carlile. It’s soft, cosy, emotional and feels safe — perfect for intimate solo sex sessions with some candles on a Sunday morning.
Kiss It Kiss It — Reneé Rapp
Lesbian artist Reneé Rapp’s tune, Kiss It Kiss It, is upbeat, cheeky, poppy, catchy and almost electric. Your orgasms will be dancing!
Spooky — Dusty Springfield
Last but definitely not least, groundbreaking bisexual Dusty Springfield’s, Spooky, is the song to play for everyone who’s into the chic and cool sixties sound, who like smokey tunes and enjoy relaxed melodies.
