Over a beer recently, a friend told us the story of, um, getting busy with a new acquaintance. Apparently, all was going well until the lady in question got up to put a song on the stereo. Her choice? Pink Floyd’s “Mother.” Unsurprisingly, our friend’s mind quickly switched from getting jiggy to getting out of there as quickly as possible, and the whole incident got us thinking about amusingly inappropriate music to soundtrack having sex. So to celebrate Valentine’s Day, here’s 10 of our choices – awkward, hilarious, or just plain wrong.
Pink Floyd – “Mother”
The Wall as a whole is an extended exploration of alienation, but Roger Waters (er, sorry, “fictional” character Pink) reserves particular opprobrium for his mother, depicting her as on overbearing, smothering nightmare. “Mother’s going to check out all your girlfriends for you/ Mother won’t let anyone dirty get through…” Quite what putting this on during sex says is open for debate, but one thing’s for sure: if you think this is a romantic soundtrack, you’ve got serious issues.

Another is Buck 65′s ‘The Floor’. It’s an explicit ballad about a poor family with a dying mother. If this song doesn’t kill a romantic mood I don’t know what will.
