#CosmoKinkyFaves: The top 50 best songs that deserve to be on every sex playlist

Sex without music is fine. Sex with the right playlist? Elite. A good song doesn’t just fill the silence—it sets the pace, builds tension, and turns even the most familiar moments into something cinematic. Whether it’s a slow, unhurried build or a full-volume, no-distractions-needed kind of night, music has a way of syncing bodies, moods, and intentions without a single word exchanged.

This isn’t about one fixed idea of what “sexy” should sound like. Because desire isn’t one-note; it shifts, swells, softens, and explodes, sometimes all within the same hour. And the right sex playlist understands that.

So we did what we do best: thought deeply about pleasure, chemistry, and cultural impact, and curated what we’re calling the ultimate sex playlist of all time. These are the songs that have soundtracked first times, long-term love, messy situationships, and everything in between. So on your next date night in, turn down the lights, press play, and let the music do some of the work!
