I hope your open sign is blinking still

Heyyo. So, it's SEXtember at bones_ga, and while all my fic-writing focus is currently being spent on the neverending Brennan story I started earlier this year (I swear to God, I WILL finish it before the new season), I still couldn't resist jumping into the fangirl fray in some fashion. Especially since damnskippytoo suggested sexytimes fanmixing. Now, I don't really do fanmixes, mind you, but y'all know I love me some YouTube linkage & soundtracks. Hence, this puppy here.

Some of these choices will be conventional--obviously having to do with teh nekkidness (ain't nothin' wrong with a little bump & grind)--and some not so much. There are certain romantic songs that make me think of B/B coming together, literally & figuratively, without being obvious about it. A few of you might recognize a couple repeat offenders from previous soundtracks I've made, but that's sort of to be expected. Regardless, I tried to keep this fresh, so hopefully I succeeded in that. There's 22 songs here to choose from, meaning there should be something for just about everyone. And, yes, I know that number's random. It's how I roll.



P.S. These will be in no particular order. I am waayyyy too indecisive for that mess.

P.P.S. I could've made this list much, much dirtier (like, really, I have no shame. Haha), but apparently I was mostly in a sappy mood today. I figure the rest of you will take care of providing all the kink needed this month, however.

1. I'm Your Man, Leonard Cohen.

2. Unison, Bjork.

3. Stripped, Shiny Toy Guns.

4. Kissing You, Des'ree.

5. Love Story (Where Do I Begin), Shirley Bassey.

6. Something, The Beatles.

7. Midnight Hour, Reflection Eternal feat. Estelle.

8. Paper Cup, Heather Nova.

9. Fantasize, Floetry.

10. Let's Stay Together, Al Green.

11. Hallelujah, Jeff Buckley.

12. Can't Take My Eyes Off of You, Lauryn Hill.

13. Marry Me, St. Vincent.

14. Book of the Month, Lovage.

15. Ready For Love, India Arie.

16. Nights in White Satin, The Moody Blues.

17. Ultimate Relationship (A.M.), Mary J. Blige.

18. With You, Natalie Walker.

19. Put Your Hands on Me, Joss Stone.

20. Any Time, Any Place, Janet Jackson.

21. Violence & Variations, Bear McCreary. (note: random, I know. But here's the thing. Bear McCreary's brilliance will pretty much immediately impregnate the ears of anyone listening, AND this song played during a sexytimes scene. So, y'know, relevant. It occurred on BSG, of course, but whatevs. Details, details. It's still a perfect bedroom anthem for any similarly intense pairing. Because I say so.)

22. Day Too Soon, Sia.

And that's it! Hope everyone enjoyed. And for my normal flistmates, I'll be back soon with a regular update, but probably not until at least tomorrow night.

Ahhh, I adore Hallelujah, and it's just gorgeous for B/B. I'm definitely looking forward to listening to the rest. :D

(And yeah, I was totally expecting this to be really dirty. None of my song predictions came true, which is probably just as well...)

I was thinking of going with a dirty list, stuff like "I'm Fuckin' You Tonight" by Biggie & "My Neck, My Back" by Khia, but in the end I went with something different. Heh.

I'm awful at making mixes, so I'm always fascinated by other people's choices for songs. This is cool!
