Music and Masturbation


The two don't really go together I find. (Although there's always Donna Summer's "Love to Love you Baby." But that isn't about masturbation, it just used to make me want to do it. )

I like to think I keep fairly well up to date with the current music scene – Foals, Florence, Chic (lol ) etc, but maybe I need an update on current slang. I was listening to the radio the other day when I heard the following lyrics:
"I want your body, everybody wants your body, so let's jack."
"They can't mean that," I thought. Can they? Maybe they can. I only know one meaning for the word jack used like that, but perhaps there is also a dance-linked usage of the word I haven't come across. After all there was famously "I'd rather jack than Fleetwood Mac." I kind of always assumed that was a masturbatory reference as well.

It set me thinking. Popular music has explored a lot of themes not always openly discussed at the coffee shop – politics, drugs, racism, love, infidelity, sex in all its forms......but not so much masturbation. "Songs about Wanking," isn't an obvious album title. Not like Songs in the Key of Life or Songs about Jane.

Okay, there was Chuck Berry's "My Dingaling" but that was a bit of a joke. I suppose there's the now obscure, but none the less wonderful, "I Touch Myself" by The Divinyls, ("I don't want anybody else, when I think about you I touch myself." It's a kind of early 1990s post punk throw back to the Pretenders with a bit of Blondie thrown in in case you've never heard it, which I am sure you haven't. (Except Marysia might have because The Divynils were an Australian band. ) I have a copy of the single in my record collection, and the cover features a recumbent fishnet-clad female, presumably re-enacting the title.

But generally speaking, priming the portugese hand pump / polishing the little pink pearl is not a subject which features strongly in the great pop music back catalogue.........unless you know otherwise?

I know the song you've referenced but not sure if the recring is by the same artist but let's assume it is.

Not a lot of ferences to be sure,...but there are two in a fairly recent song by Melanie Fiona - Give It To Me Right she sings "...if you can't please me I know someone who can...when I'm alone I can make me say yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, yehhhh"

searching my brain for others but so far cumming up dry

oh I actually know both songs,...I R old

Good girls go to heaven,....Bad girls go EVERYWHERE!

I loved The Divinyls, and the song you mentioned. Chrissy was well before the times, such a risky song.
She will be sadly missed.

Use of speaker as a vibrator huh? Naughty but kind of nice, lol.

Yes, when I was researching the post I found out that Chrissy Amphlett had died. Very sad.

Yes, I remember when it was first on the radio, I wasn't quite sure I believed what I was hearing, lol. Then when I was researching the post I found out that Chrissy Amphlett had died. Very sad.

If I remember rightly we are talking about Jim Morrison here? I haven't heard five to one, but I will check it - that title is suggestive.

Funny, I was recently reading a Cracked article about this. Can't post links, but it's reasonably easy to find. Even includes lyrics!

I seem to remember 90s and hip-hop being quite well populated by masturbation songs. T-Boz did a tune called "Touch Myself", Tweet did one called "Oops / Oh My". I'm pretty sure there were a few others that my thirteen-year-old self was embarrassed to watch when they came on the telly.

Do not seek an external refuge, but be a light unto yourself.

It may be that I have missed out on a whole generation of worthwhile and hip-hop. I'm struggling to think of any I like. "Gangster's Paradise" maybe, but expect that's too mainstream and doesn't really count. I'm afraid I have never heard of T-Boz or Tweet. But I'm glad to hear that they appreciated the fine art of "sex with someone I love" as Woody Allen put it.
