Best Make Out Music

We've all been there. Your eyes meet, you smile, you both lean in to start that oh-so-enjoyable make out session...but wait, no music?? Relax, we got you covered. Lookin' to show your sultry, soulful side? Then check out our R&B Slow Jams station and "get it on" to the sounds of Marvin Gaye and others. Is rock more your thing? Then turn on the Power Ballads station and woo that special someone with classics from Journey and Bon Jovi. And who could go wrong with the Love Songs station? Works like a charm. Still don't see something here for you? Oh, you're the rough type...then we recommend listening to Metal Mosh Pit. Nothin' like a little tough love.
