I got a lot of experience under my belt to the sound of Portishead's first album. I may or may not have lost my virginity to it. I consider this album to be the best makeout music of the 1990's.
I remember making out to Shudder To Think's Pony Express Record a lot with this awesome punk girlfriend I had from Sparta, NJ. That was always interesting because it's basically homoerotic math-rock.
What else?
-
I LOVE that Pony Express record but don't think I'd want it in that context - too distracting with those wacky time changes.
I have some fond memories of Stereolab's Dots and Loops, Isotope 217's Unstable Molecule, and Medeski, Martin, and Wood's Shack Man.

Pangea by Miles Davis or Sax You Down by Alfonso Blackwell.

I don't require a soundtrack.

I visited a friend who I know is like exclusively into trance and Tool (what a combo!) and he had a Sarah Maclahlan CD, which i realized was his "sex u up" music, which skeeves me out to this day.
Other fine candidates:
The Last Temptation of the Christ soundtrack
Too $hort: that song where the refrain is "My Dick!"
The Jerky Boys: any
Last Rites by Skinny Puppy
Come Poop with Me, the Triumph the Insult Comic Dog cd, or the DVD and just turn the screen off and play the "You Have To Work Blue" bit on loop. Very erotic.
Prussian Blue
The Survivor television show soundtrack
Akon - I wanna love you (Dirty Version)
Brick, by Ben Folds 5
16 Horsepower: Sackcloth and Ashes
Rush Limbaugh/ EIB Bumper Music CD (I created this myself, but am willing to burn copies. For a fair-market price.)
"Goodbye Horses" Q Lazzarus
"Casimir Pulaski Day " by Soupjam Stevenson
The Crying Game soundtrack
And the ultimate:
A hand-made Opie and Anthony CD where you've chosen all of your favorite bits.
Seeeeeeeeeexxxxxxxyyyyyyyyyyy!

That is the birth control of playlists. With that set list there is no chance in hell of you procreating.

If that's the case, then I think it should be packaged and distributed free on street corners.

Portishead is definitely a good call but I like the idea of terrible make out music. I posted this on another board.
Pantera "Cowboys from Hell"
best of Barry Manilow
Primus - anything
Michael W. Smith
Henry Rollin spoken word

How about that Rollins piece that directs a woman giving a blow job to reach for the knife under her pillow and hack off her partner's member? I enjoy playing that one for the local barbarians, followed by the Yeastie Girls' "You Suck."
-
hahaha, what was that in reference to? Rollins is quite the character.
-
I have a cassette of myself singing "Love is in the Air."
-

I don't even remember what album it's from. It's just a short little thing that starts off with him saying "in . . . out . . . in . . . out" and then something like "Yeah, your man's home after a long day, and now you've got to make him feel good. You know how to do it, girl: you do it with your mouth," etc. And then more "in . . . outs" and, finally, "You reach up, under the pillow, grab the knife, and [whomp sound effect] cut it off. Yeah, cut it off, cut the whole thing off, put it in a box, and send it to me, Henry Rollins, at [address]. . . . Ladies, no one understand you like I do." It's great.

Morphine Cure for Pain, Led Zepplin Number 1, Stereolab (pretty much any of them)
-
C&C Music Factory's song "Things that make you go Hmmmmm" always seems to get it started.

do you have a special dance that goes along with it? because i'm all about a man who can shake his ass to early nineties dance/hip hop. It sets the mood for romance.
well, this most certainly makes ME go hmmmm...
-
My dance usually involves suspenders, bike shorts and a bowler hat but I don't want to get into details.
-
I used to make out with boys to The Make Up. Oh yes.

Woah! Good one! Which album? I could see "Save Yourself" or maybe the last track on "Live! At Cold Rice" but not Sound Verite.
-
Totally "Save Yourself." I also liked the compilation, which is for housewives and little girls*. It has "Born on the Floor" on it, which is on my FAVORITE SONGS EVER list. It's not an actual list I've taken the time to write down or anything. Perhaps I'll tag these songs on last.fm or something. I don't know.
*Oh, hold up. Those are "greatest hits" CDs. I don't know if the Make-Up ever had a hit, but they certainly had some great songs.

Two words: Led Zep. That four-cd box set (is it "box set" or "boxed set"?) always worked wonders back when I was young and foolish. Soundgarden worked too, but that was basically gateway back to Zep heh-huh-vennnn. Or, if you're in a car in Rhode Island, particularly in a beachside parking lot in the summer and at night (okay, typing that last detail just made me feel like a complete sicko), just keep it tuned to The Home Of Rock N' Roll: NINETY-FOUR W. H. J. Y. ... PROVIDENCE. That station still plays basically the same thing they were playing back in 1989 when I and my high school buddies were chopping bad coke on cassette cases. It's like a time warp to go home.
(This may be the grossest thread I have ever participated in.)

oh yes, HJY. what memories! my first Rock Moment was circa 1982, when (in secret) I recorded Crazy Train & Aqualung off that station on my brother's Sanyo boombox. I'd listen to that tape and just rock the hell out.
I found myself recently (with some regret) huffing major Clear Channel Dong™ when I entered HJY's "15 seconds of Fame" contest. They solicited folks to make their own videos, and the best one would be their new TV commercial. The prize was $10,000 so I had to whore myself out for a shot at it.
Unfortunately, most of the entries that made the top-10 had a theme that I feel was pretty much requisite: the middle-aged guy with a cool car and hot babes either dancing or lip-syncing to Foreigner.

Stellar effort! And don't feel bad about trying to take their money; they obviously have plenty to blow if they can continue on playing the stuff they did as if the last 20 years never existed (not that commercial radio elsewhere is doing any better; I'd actually rather hear Foreigner -- which I did hear the last time I was in RI -- than the ten "new" songs that WBCN plays non-stop these days).
What I will also say in HJY's favor is that their Sunday night local show, Soundcheck, is solid. RI's home grown talent base isn't nearly what it was 10 years ago when bands like Six Finger Satellite, Scarce, Boss Fuel, and Ashley Von Hurter & The Haters were laying waste on a regular basis, but at least if you tune in these days you have a good chance of hearing a good old nugget from Verbal Assault or Backwash.

Shaggs gets me hooked up every time

Oooooh Elysian Fields makes for good make out music. I also like the the Sephardic CD Oren and Jennifer did for Tzadik. I know, okay, just trust me on this. Jewish music can be sexy.

I listen to a bit of WBCN but not for the music thats for sure. Usually when I'm driving in the afternoon. Well you could always listen to WBRU, boy talk about a station going from somewhat ok to utter crap.
HJY has stunk all the time I mean that play list is pretty much the same from 1982. Except with less Zebra. OK there is no good Backwash or whatever name they changed their name to. Since there are countless other Backwashes out there. Yeah Boss Fuel are missed along with Six Finger, Scarce, Velvet Crush, Small Factory, Von Ryan's Express, and Thee Hydrogen Terrors.
So Tim K your saying you like to go get bombed at the Ocean Mist and hang out by the parking lot.
-
Nah. Sachuest Beach in Middletown, RI was it. I was an Aquidneck Islander through and through (which explains my Backwash allegiance; the few recordings they had didn't do them or Mother Jefferson justice; the One Ton Shotgun/Backwash combo The Motormags have had better luck since then). Going to the Ocean Mist would have required Stillborn Pell Memorial Bridge tokens. Few islanders leave unless it's for a Neighborhoods show at the old Living Room.

Sweet sweet sweet wind

After sharing an iced bottle of Arbor Mist Raspberry Bliss Wine Blender with the sweet-patootie... I would rock The Residents, Jandek and Diamanda Galas.
