songs for when you kiss someone for the first time

it can be a little funny. you're not sure how exactly to tilt your head and whether his mouth will fit yours and vice versa. it can be like thumb wrestling--a kind of fumbling to see who gets to lead the way. and then there's the question of how much pressure to exert, open or closed, and that inevitable weird moment when you wonder if you should even be doing this. then you say what the hell and close your eyes and just enjoy yourself.

1) This Strange Effect by Thievery Corporation - for kissing someone you really really like but you know you'll hate yourself the morning after for giving in.

2) Angelica by Lamb (or is it Lamb by Angelica?) - for kissing someone while you're on a boat and skimming over waves as smooth as glass.

3) Teardrop by Massive Attack - for when you're sunning yourself on a deserted island and the sky is a blazing blue and there's a beautiful man sunning himself beside you and you look at each other and suddenly all you can hear is someone's heartbeat and you're not sure if it's yours or the other person's.

4) Heaven's Gonna Burn Your Eyes by Thievery Corporation - for that moment when you first close your eyes.

5) Northern Lights by Lux - for kissing The One. enough said.
