Fifty Shades of Grey Theme Music?

The movie is coming out soon, and I hope they have appropriate music. Here are a couple of songs they should have considered. I hope they used one.

X-Ray Spex, “Oh Bondage! Up Yours!”:


And considerably darker and more graphic, Lydia Lunch, “Snakepit Breakdown”:


Both would work well thematically, but neither makes SM seem particularly romantic.

Oh, and if these two are too heavy for you, then how about this: The Culture Club, “Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?”:

And there's always “Beat My Guest”, by Adam and the Ants:

(If at least two of these songs don't play during the end credits of this movie, then they have no sense of humor.)
