How, since the 1950s, have music and sex influenced each other? Between the intimate and the universal, this 4-episode documentary series recounts evolving mores, through song... In the 1950s, 3% of songs in the charts were about sex. In the 1970s, that figure had risen to 40%. And in 2009, sex featured in 92% of hits! Sex and music: their intertwined paths recount evolving mores, over the decades, but also our transgressions, our freedoms and our desires. Is it because songs have modelled our thoughts that our sexual behaviours have changed? Or is it our sexual behaviours that have influenced the world of music? Is Madonna forging a new image of women’s sexuality, or is her music inspired by women’s emancipation of preceding decades? Do heavy metal groups wear leather and studs because of SM influence, or has SM become sufficiently commonplace as to be put on display? In 4 chapters, this series shows the paths our identities and sexual leanings have taken, and how, via songs, we have gone from inhibition to a pronounced desire for pleasure. (Arte)

I saw the final two episodes, which were definitely more about sex than music. I remember the late 80s when my colleague took me to a small-town party, and I noted that the music sucked. The reply I got was that people don't go to these events for the music but for the opportunity to get drunk and have sex. "Sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll" was the motto of the time, which had its justification. However, the creators of the series primarily focus on marginal radical currents that undoubtedly existed and still exist, but they completely overlook the equally interesting mainstream, which was heavily influenced by sexuality and at the same also strongly influenced it. Overall impression: 70%.
