These are the songs I listened to while writing THE TRUTH BEHIND THE LIES. This is part of the inspiration process. Take a look and you can see why I chose these songs.
1. How’s That – FKA Twigs This is the song I used for the book trailer.
These words are sensual and overtly sexual. She wants him in her wink wink.
That feels good, In my...
That feels good
So so
amazing
I want you, In my...
2.
Say You
Will – Kanye West This song was the song Bash played on they way back home
after their overnight stay at the hotel in Indiana.
When I grab your neck.
I
touch your soul.
Take off your cool, then lose control.
3.
Blow –
Beyoncé I put this song in the playlist because it was about a man giving a
woman oral pleasures and this took place fairly often in the book. This song
was probably played the most because it fit the best with the storyline.
Can
you eat my skittles?
It’s the sweetest in the middle.
Pink is the flavor, solve
the riddle.
4.
Cabaret –
Justin Timberlake Another sexy song that displays how a man feels about the
sexiness of his woman. This remains me of Bash.
Now can we discuss.
Just how fast you got undressed.
Girl if sex is a contest.
Then you’re come in first.
5. Lights On – FKA Twigs This erotic song conveys feeling so comfortable
with someone in a sexual manner with lyrics like *when I trust you we can do it with the lights
on* this instantly made it to the playlist because Bash and Nina took their time
getting to know each other.
Break or seize me.
Let the things that I tell you
survive.
In the way that you handle your size.
Never leave me.
6.
Feelings
– Maroon 5 This fast paced happy song was on the playlist because it
conveyed the joy the characters felt encountering a new love.
If you want me.
Take me home and let me use you.
7. Trini Dem Girls – Nicki Minaj This song was mentioned in the book as the song Nina danced to in her open clutter free living room. She wanted to see if she still could pat the pum pum.
Put it in his face like a cop badge.
He wanna
pound it like a hashtag.
8. Crazy In
Love (2014 Remix) – Beyoncé This song in its slow version is pretty much
the anthem for being hopelessly and helplessly in love. You may have heard the song a million times but there's something so sexy and provocative about this slowed down groaning version of the song.
You got me sprung
and
I don’t care who sees,
cause baby you got me.
9.
Hours – FKA
Twigs British artist FKA Twigs has a host of very sexual songs with explicit lyrics. That’s if you listen closely to the words. Her songs seem
to fit perfectly with the subject matter I tackled in the book.
How would you like it
if I sucked
before I bite
but it wasn’t too hard
so it felt alright
10. Chains – Nick Jonas This song made it to the playlist because it was
indicative to feeling an undeniable attachment to a lover. The beat was cool and just want was needed to keep me writing about Nina and Bash.
You got me in chains
you got me in chains for your love
But, I wouldn't change,
no I wouldn't change this love
These are the main songs on my playlist for the novel The Truth Behind The Lies. Book 2 will have a new playlist.
