“2005, baby: What a time to be alive and trying to fuck.”

2005 was a year full of corny songs but also a year full of horny songs. It was a year in which, trapped anew in a Bush presidency, all we could do was bone — at least, according to the charts. For 2005 Week, it felt appropriate to slip into my silk pajamas, light some incense, and channel that college boy I once was so I could highlight a few of them for you. They are grouped for your pleasure. Join me won’t you? Pour yourself a cognac.

Eras!! Hard to define in their time, but ten years can really give the perspective we need. Like, say, if we needed to know who had the horniest song of 2005.
