The Polyamorous Playlist Project

The other day, my lifestyle boyfriend sent me a song, saying, “The song Trouble by Chris Rene. …So you.” The lyrics go, “That girl is trouble, trouble, she always wants to take off her clothes…”

I replied back that the song Nice and Slow by Usher should be the theme song for our night last week when we went to his cabin in the woods and fucked for 2 1/2 hours without interruption.

“Feels like a playlist coming on,” he told me.

And thus began the Polyamorous Playlist Project. Most of the songs fit a range of lifestyle preferences, but I like the alliteration of Polyamorous Playlist Project. So let’s roll with it.

Finding songs to fit the list is a lot harder than you might think. We wanted songs that were sexy, but not gross. A gross sexy song to me is epitomized by the song by Khia, My Neck, My Back (Lick It). The song goes, “Lick it good, suck this pussy, just like you should…Lick my pussy and my crack. Then you roll your tongue, from the crack back to the front, then suck it off til I shake and cum.”

Mr. D is partial to that song. When I hear it, all I can think is, “Gross.” Even if I like to do those things. A lot. That kind of song doesn't want to make me fuck somebody, makes me want to roll my eyes and turn off the music.

We instead were looking for the kind of song that was sexy hot. But also stayed clear from lyrics about being together forever. About being the only one. About love in a way that seemed too traditional.

And so here is the start of our playlist. My guy has a penchant for hip-hop and R&B, so it definitely has that flavor. And I have a penchant for indy rock, so some of that is in there as well.

I welcome others to chime in with other songs that fit lifestyle vibe of ‘high-end sexy’ but not defining us into categories that just don't feel right. Songs that represent the fun adventurous nature of the lifestyle. Songs that remind us to embrace who we are, to be adventurous, and to have a fucking good time!
