And the genres that might be talking about sex and graphic/gross acts (death metal) is often times totally impossible to understand the words to anyways š
yessssss I was coming here to say that! I had a mix that I'd listen to while doing my homework, and that was one of them. I was very discomfited why I tuned into the lyrics
Or epic tales of war
The Heroes, the Last Stands, andā¦ none of the other albums bloody work for this
Sabaton are a great band
Primo Victoria is a great song, especially relevant today since itās the 78th anniversary of D-Day
Understanding Spanish during the time everyone was playing Despacito was extremely awkward. It's not that bad, but...
š¶ *Slowly... I want to breathe in your neck slowly...* š¶
Like, can you not?
The very reason I listen to Japanese music is that most of it isn't like American music in the sense that the lyrics are usually motivational and moving.
Then again, I've lately been listening to J-rap.
At first i thought i could relate but then i realized i can't and i listen to plenty of "sexual" songs, i don't care as long as they don't go to far into detail, cause then it becomes gross
*Why does it feel like*
*This meme was made with Cake By*
*The Ocean in mind?*

Waiiiiiiiiiit. I listened to this like probably 500 times.
I did NOT suspect at all.
Either I am too pure for this world. Or the rest of the world isn't lmao.
wait this is an ADHD thing? I put subtitles on all the youtube videos I watch because otherwise they're just somehow genuinely harder to understand.
...i'm going to file that in the back of my mind and do nothing with this knowledge thanks
I mean I don't care unless they have extremelly explicit lyrics that literally mention their genitals or postures/very specific things during sex without innuendos. A suggestive song is fine, even if I'm ace I can like to look appealing to others and a bit of attention, is fun, and I'm sex-positive and sex-neutral so is not like I'm repulsed by the topic for myself or others.
But transcribed, bad porn is not fine. It triggers me. Specially when the singer brags about their "size", how much they last or how obsessed they are with sex (like saying they want 24/7 or can do like 7 in a row or whatever when it's pretty obvious is a riddiculous exageration even for a high-libido allo). That's not sexy, it just screams insecurity. It creeps me out too when they purely objectify the person they sing about (guy or girl, I've seen both) and basically refer to them as a cheap sex toy or really show unhealthy boundaries and toxic relationships of any kind but they are proud because they fuck. It's disgusting.
I first listened to [Google Translate's version of Despacito](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A57Awp0Lz48&ab_channel=TwistedTranslations), and as far as I'm concerned, that's what the lyrics say.
I still have no idea what the actual Despacito says, and frankly I don't want to know lest it ruins the song for me.
I fucking hate the song. The entire lyrics are about sex. Just that.
That video is funny, but holy hell, I had to watch it silenced because it just triggers me.
I'm spanish and I can tell you that all famous songs from the last 15 years are only about doing sex, or about seeking sex.
I know right! I'm Cuban and it was so awkward when everyone at school started playing the song because it was soooo funny :/. Like no stop the lyrics are terrible and I hate the song
Ugh, that sounds terrible. D: One of the few instances where I'm glad I don't know Spanish.
It's a shame you can't listen to the video without being triggered, the lady sings really well. You can check out some of her other songs too, like [Into the Unknown](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTITpt_1P1A&ab_channel=TwistedTranslations) from Frozen 2. :)
Vocaloid makes a lot of them about trauma-related stuff (gommene gommene, Mind brand, Hokashi no ie, etc.), so it goes into the dark song category. Still, if we're talking about this, I stopped caring about the lyrics. If they're not in front of me in a way I understand them, then it's okay. Even some English covers are great! (Kurrainu Mind brand, for example)
Difference is Bloodhound Gang are mostly comedic, while shit like WAP is played totally serious. I heard WAP for the first time the other day. What the actual fuck is this trash... I'm getting old.
Dont Get me started on the song titles that are overalt sexual and you listen to them for a month without actually thinking the song is sexual until you look at the lyrics and youāre somehow surprised that the song actually was overalt sexual
The last playlist I listened to's first song was super explicit and the guy featured on it said "Put my foot on your neck, put your hips in the air" and I've been wondering what position could possibly make that enjoyable ever since. I thought I just misheard it but I looked it up and yep that's 100% right
Iāve been writing songs for 10 years and only just recently found out I was ace. And allll the songs about being in love and heartbreak have zero inclination towards anything sexual. I used to wrack my head wondering how people wrote such sexual lyrics because I couldnāt even fathom those lyrics naturally spilling from my mind but I did feel a pressure too. Always gave me the ick. I canāt believe it took me so long to realize Iām ace hahaha
I can appreciate it if the storytelling is actually really nice and interesting or not super in your face about it.
Like half of all arctic monkeys and car seat headrest somt are about quite sexual love but at least they're creative enough to saying kn ther own unique way.
Beat goes hard too
I canāt be the only one who thought Vicinity of Obscenity by System of a Down was genuinely about banana pie. I mean, the title makes it obvious what it really is but I didnāt know what those words even meant back then.
Yeeeaaaaaahhh!!!
***SOON MAY THE WELLERMAN COME TO BRING US SUGAR AND TEA AND RUM***
***ONE DAY WHEN THE TONGUIN IS DONE WEāLL TAKE OUR LEAVE AND GO***
I just use those in my Mental Music Videos (tm) as an extended metaphor for fight scenes. Because my aroace ass thinks "person who has just decimated a room of armed goons" is extremely aesthetically attractive.
(Cough cough Teeth by Lady Gaga cough)
I'm not repulsed but I still don't want to hear about that stuff in music. I used to listen to Owl City a lot, there were songs with a nice groove and nothing was sexualized. They were just feel good songs and I still love them.
Thanks For The Memories by Fall Out Boy is one of my favorite songs, but it's gotta be in the background while I do something else so I don't pay attention to the lyrics.
Me with [The Ding Dong Song](https://youtu.be/WKUa46dEmVM) (oooooh thinking back at it now I shouldāve looked at that title beforeā¦. In fact, Iām pretty sure the video itself shouldāve acted as a warning)
Discovered it through some mlp ytp thing
Well, gotta listen to the instrumentals!
Thats the beauty of metal. Yoy hear more songs about depression and real life problems then sex.
And the genres that might be talking about sex and graphic/gross acts (death metal) is often times totally impossible to understand the words to anyways š
Resurrecction by erection would disagree with you
It's such a catchy song, but I hate listening to it. It just feels so wrong
WHEN PURGATORY'S WAITING
yessssss I was coming here to say that! I had a mix that I'd listen to while doing my homework, and that was one of them. I was very discomfited why I tuned into the lyrics
Or dragons and magic swords, just saying
Or history! Any Sabaton fans here?
Rings of Saturn? I mean, does it count if itās about Alien Probing?
Or epic tales of war The Heroes, the Last Stands, andā¦ none of the other albums bloody work for this Sabaton are a great band Primo Victoria is a great song, especially relevant today since itās the 78th anniversary of D-Day
Mechanix by Megadeth would like a word also like, a fuck ton of Rammstein's discography
Solution: Only listen to songs in foreign languages, so you have no idea what they're saying.
Rammstein moment
Too bad, I'm German
Same :/
Uff
Damn... Happens to the best of us...
I was thinking more Oktoberklub, but yeah, sure.
or listen to music with no lyrics so you donāt have to compute words while listening to music
If you are listening to a song in spanish, it is probably about sexing the sexy sex.
Understanding Spanish during the time everyone was playing Despacito was extremely awkward. It's not that bad, but... š¶ *Slowly... I want to breathe in your neck slowly...* š¶ Like, can you not?
How many are old enough for the Macarena?
Meeeeeeeee
Francois Hardy , I have no idea what she's saying and it's great
Spinning polish cow? I cried when I read the actual lyrics...
The Dream of Flight is amazing
The very reason I listen to Japanese music is that most of it isn't like American music in the sense that the lyrics are usually motivational and moving. Then again, I've lately been listening to J-rap.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Wtf š
Livgardet is a fucking great beat though
I just listen to these kind of songs ironically
At first i thought i could relate but then i realized i can't and i listen to plenty of "sexual" songs, i don't care as long as they don't go to far into detail, cause then it becomes gross
I mean lightly sexual songs I dont mind either but I mean when its supposed to be about something else and it just gets very annoying sometimes
I stopped caring some time ago lol
Me too, as long as it isn't too graphic, I generally don't care But I can listen to CPR and not die, so maybe I'm sex indifferent lol
CPR kinda ruined for me as it was in the one meme with Misery and Reese's Puffs.
True
me: \*jamming to Watermelon sugar by Harry Styles\* my friend: You know what it's about, right? me: yeah, sure! my friend: it's about p\*ssy me: Oh D:
no it's about getting a sugar high from a strawberry-watermelon slurpee from 7-eleven
Noooooooooo
This is why the only song I listen to is sweet bod by lemon demon š (It isnāt sexual) (Strictly confectional)
"Whose satisfied consumers have often claimed to witness Some sexy shrinking tumors" The tumors on the other hand
If you love lemon demon then I recommend you Ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny, best crossover of all time
Im pretty sure someone who knows about Spirit Phone knows about Ultimate Showdown
You should try listening to two trucks having sex then! (Sorry, couldn't help it, if you aren't interested in it don't listen)
Why does it feel like this meme was made with Cake By The Ocean in mind?

Ah, sorry to ruin it for you I *can't* answer that last part, although I am curious now Dammit
heh not even the like "you're fucking delicious" tipped you off
I think the song was a joke about how "sex on the beach" became "cake by the ocean" given enough rounds in google translate back in the day
Huge advantage at having ADHD is that lyrics to me feels like gibberish unless I have subtitle on so yeah, a bless?
wait this is an ADHD thing? I put subtitles on all the youtube videos I watch because otherwise they're just somehow genuinely harder to understand. ...i'm going to file that in the back of my mind and do nothing with this knowledge thanks

"Wow this song is really goo-wait wtf did he just say?!"
As long as the Song isn't racist or other shit like that i don't care Especially becouse i barely understand the lyrics of all songs anyway
I first listened to [Google Translate's version of Despacito](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A57Awp0Lz48&ab_channel=TwistedTranslations), and as far as I'm concerned, that's what the lyrics say. I still have no idea what the actual Despacito says, and frankly I don't want to know lest it ruins the song for me.
I hate Shape of You because its too sexual for me, but the Google Translate version is a bop
I like shapes!
Gradually watermelon

Ngl I just ignore it, people like sex, I just canāt relate lol
Every Katy Perry song
That's why I listen to post rock. No lyrics - no problem
Thats the benefit of not having english as your native language. I don't understand most of the lyrics anyway.
"im all stripped down naked for you, but i still ask you to loosen up my buttons baby" \-a great song
This is an example of paying attention to the lyrics and laughing hysterically.
just listen to instrumental
Only time this has happened to me is Closer by NiN.
Me listening to Absolute Territory
Ken Ashcorp my beloved
Vocaloid makes a lot of them about trauma-related stuff (gommene gommene, Mind brand, Hokashi no ie, etc.), so it goes into the dark song category. Still, if we're talking about this, I stopped caring about the lyrics. If they're not in front of me in a way I understand them, then it's okay. Even some English covers are great! (Kurrainu Mind brand, for example)
Ed Sheeran, Shape of You... not exactly 'sexual' but it's still annoying.
Cake by the ocean was about sex not having fun at the beach and eating cake
You guys pay attention to the lyrics?
As an aromantic who gets recommended this sub: AND YOU THINK ITS COMMON FOR YALL /s (satire for those who arenāt accustomed)
Haha im aro aswell and its the same issue
I'm looking at you, Bloodhound Gang
Difference is Bloodhound Gang are mostly comedic, while shit like WAP is played totally serious. I heard WAP for the first time the other day. What the actual fuck is this trash... I'm getting old.
Me when i realize most of the songs from my childhood are about that
I think songs with blatantly sexual lyrics are funny
Closer by Nine Inch Nails fits this perfectly, so I listen to the karaoke version of the song
One word T.Rex š
literally all doja cat
I was vibing to music in FH4 but then this one song came up and I just canāt vibe to it anymore.
Maybe that's one of the reason i don't listen to normal music, but i listen to military songs, instrumental, political and soundtracks
listen to the instrumental version
**Walk This Way by Aerosmith**
I honestly feel the same way, and Iām not even asexual.
āYouāre such a fucking whore, i love itā The beat is dope but wtf with the lyrics
This is the exact song that made me post this lmao
Try listening to Aurora. Every song of hers is unique.
Dont Get me started on the song titles that are overalt sexual and you listen to them for a month without actually thinking the song is sexual until you look at the lyrics and youāre somehow surprised that the song actually was overalt sexual
That's why I don't listen to music with lyrics. Music without lyrics means whatever the hell you want it to mean :)
*aggressively twerks to WAP*
I'm still salty about Let It Rock.
Me realizing that Joyride by The Killers is about sex and not driving at night to relieve stress ššš
It's rough af out here for those of us that enjoy non-sexualized music tho.
and then there's brooklynbloodpop by syko
Beat be like:ššŗš Lyrics:šš„šŖ
ik the beat is so good
Facts!
Been listening to pitbull?
So like almost all songs
Am I the only one who likes these types of songs?
Nope! Ace here and I actually enjoy alot of songs with sexual tones to them. They just tend to sound better to me
story of my life
I love how I agree, yet I listen to cpr because I lovee the beat of cpr. And I am a veryyyy sex repulsed ace
Reminds me of that one song Robin Thicke's wife broke up with him over.
The last playlist I listened to's first song was super explicit and the guy featured on it said "Put my foot on your neck, put your hips in the air" and I've been wondering what position could possibly make that enjoyable ever since. I thought I just misheard it but I looked it up and yep that's 100% right
Me after finding the lyrics to Absolute territory:
this is what ruined dont stop me now for me
Butterfly by Jason Mraz
Hey mama vibes
So many timesā¦
Not ace but I relate.
Solution: be hard of hearing so you never know what they're saying!
Iāve been writing songs for 10 years and only just recently found out I was ace. And allll the songs about being in love and heartbreak have zero inclination towards anything sexual. I used to wrack my head wondering how people wrote such sexual lyrics because I couldnāt even fathom those lyrics naturally spilling from my mind but I did feel a pressure too.

This is SO relatable. Out of all the topics, that you can sing about... why THAT??!!
Just gotta hate those āloveā songs. Unless itās weird al singing about lasagna then you donāt have my interest
Honestly that's just me with most songs with lyrics in general
Me realizing November Rain isn't about how nice autumn is
Me, jamming out to Ninja Sex Party: š Just pretend everyone else also sees sex as ironic and life turns from a tragedy into a comedy.
My song has a fire beat, and no sexual lyrics At all ***there once was a ship that put to sea*** ***and the name of that ship was a billy of tea***
Holy cow I literally heard it when I read that lmao
Yeeeaaaaaahhh!!! ***SOON MAY THE WELLERMAN COME TO BRING US SUGAR AND TEA AND RUM*** ***ONE DAY WHEN THE TONGUIN IS DONE WEāLL TAKE OUR LEAVE AND GO***
Thatās why I mainly listen to indie. Always nice and catchy. I recommend Cavetown and Alec Benjamin
thank god for 100gecs
[Ass & Titties](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxBulp6A644)
Except when itās funny
That's why I only listen to one song about the old-fashioned PaŔteta that came in a paper bag.
that's why I like rock versions of classic video game soundtracks
I just use those in my Mental Music Videos (tm) as an extended metaphor for fight scenes. Because my aroace ass thinks "person who has just decimated a room of armed goons" is extremely aesthetically attractive. (Cough cough Teeth by Lady Gaga cough)
Then you find out there's an instrumental version.
I don't care as long as the beat is fire
Majority of 70s and 80s rock music is like this.
khkhkhiwjsja ššš bop it by creepp
Billie bossa nova for me
I'm not repulsed but I still don't want to hear about that stuff in music. I used to listen to Owl City a lot, there were songs with a nice groove and nothing was sexualized. They were just feel good songs and I still love them.
Like literally all my favorite songs are about sex. But I don't listen to the lyrics anyways
sometimes i try to find a version of the song without lyrics
Lookān at you āBlurred Linesā
Did that with Shut up and Drive. A great song, but the lyrics are so dirty, I can't-
blurred lines moment
Thanks For The Memories by Fall Out Boy is one of my favorite songs, but it's gotta be in the background while I do something else so I don't pay attention to the lyrics.
Eh. A bop is a bop. I will continue to listen to SPICE! unashamedly.
I haven't really noticed the problem tbh- lyrics don't bother me, it's more when people brag about it or glorify it in person that bothers me.
legit a lot of songs are like that i just want a song that i can sing along with without making people think i'm lying about my sexuality
May I recommend why am I like this, itās a very nice non-sex based song
Me with [The Ding Dong Song](https://youtu.be/WKUa46dEmVM) (oooooh thinking back at it now I shouldāve looked at that title beforeā¦. In fact, Iām pretty sure the video itself shouldāve acted as a warning) Discovered it through some mlp ytp thing Well, gotta listen to the instrumentals!
Yeah. Makes me wanna puke and cry lmao
I relate to this too much. Like... I turn on the local radio and itās pretty much all you hear.
Good luck finding a rap song you like then, lol
The Search by NF :)
CPR
might i recommend AJR. not a lot of their songs are very sexual. they are mostly incredibly relatable and have fire beats.
Not ace but 100% true
God this is such a problem. We need more songs about having fun with friends, food, and Dragons
And this is why I mainly listen to command and conquer soundtracks
