Music, or more specifically Rock ‘n’ Roll music, is many things to many a people. A soothing ointment for troubled souls, a willing muse for the creatively bankrupt, the saving grace for the worldly jaded, a universal language of sorts, and et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. But more so than anything, the real magic of the dancing notes lies in how perfect a sound track it can provide for a man to do anything and everything from looking into a woman’s eyes and telling her just how good she smells, or simply letting the neighbors blush at her moans and the rattling of the bed.

This Valentines, discard the complete and utter clichés of fragile gifts in little pink boxes or blasphemously expensive dinners that could probably feed a child on the street for a year. And delve into The Backdoor’s Valentines Play list to take a musical ride that will hopefully take you and your significant other from a shared serenity to a few knee rattling orgasms. Have yourself a Rock ‘n’ Roll Valentine.
