What Winterbottom succeeds to do here is make a mainstream feature film without narrative structure and with explicit sex scenes. With regular porn there is always a definite angle to the action and usually we see everything from the point of view of the guy. Here it is more like passing a doorway and noticing a couple, pausing to watch and simply enjoying the inherent eroticism in watching two people cavorting sexually. Splendid.

Matt is in Antarctic on account of his job. While he is there he remember the relationship he left. The rest of the movie is made up of flash backs on his relationship with Lisa. All the flash backs contain when Matt and Lisa are at the concerts they attend; 9 concerts in all, and when they are having sex.
What is annoying and so interesting about 9 songs is that there is no story line. As the movie is…

Pariskunta harrastaa rock -konserteissa käymistä ja panemista. Ensimmäistä vähemmän, toista reilusti enemmän.
Juoni puuttuu, mutta annetaan pisteet rohkeudesta. Kaikki näytetään, lähikuvissa.

Πολλοί το θεωρούνε τσόντα. Δεν είναι. Οκ, έχει (αληθινό) σεξ, αλλά έχει και (ωραία) μουσική και μας δείχνει όλα τα στάδια μιας σχέσης.
Αγαπημένο quote:
Exploring the Antarctic is like exploring space. You enter a void, thousands of miles, with no people, no animals, no plants. You're isolated in a vast, empty continent. Claustrophobia and agoraphobia in the same place, like two people in a bed.

This film is a porno, no question. yes it's well shot music is good, well acted, everything you dont expect in a porno, but its a hard core porno.
and the really funny thing is the main guy is from my home town.

Okay, I'm not sure if there was really any plot. It really is a live song, followed by an explicit sexual act. These two actors do every thing for real on screen, and see a lot of live bands. I guess the music sounds good and give them props for the stones they had to bang on camera. But seriously, no plot.

The second one is something

So yeah. This was pretty much just unsimulated sex, music and occasional drug use.

The dvd cover of this movie states that 9 Songs is, "The most sexually explicit film in the history of British cinema". Hard to disagree with that statement, this film is very graphic for a supposed mainstream release with various unsimulated sex scenes and a host of other pervy action.
Dirk said in his review that this was "pretentious porn" and he was right. We have one sex scene after another followed by some drug taking and an "indie" band… -
Song #1 Whatever Happened To My Rock and Roll by The Black Rebel Motorcycle Club.
Garage rock classic from the band's debut album B.R.M.C. I remember this song from my watching MTV2 days. Love the chorus of "I fell in love with the sweet sensation,I gave my heart to a simple chord,I gave my soul to a new religion, Whatever happened to you ?"
Song #2 C'mon C'mon by The Von Bondies
The only song I know by this American…

Showing actual sex while making us care about the protagonists was always going to be (ahem) hard to pull off. To find great actors with chemistry willing to take part isn't easy, as evidenced here. A more interesting story would have helped, but then again the actors don't have the skill to make what's already there work.
