Lola Young, Post Sex Clarity | Midnight Heat 🕛 🔥

In the 78^th edition of Midnight Heat 🕛 🔥 (2025), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind “Post Sex Clarity” by Lola Young.

Ah, bring on Midnight Heat 🕛 🔥! Wait – it is not usually hot at midnight! Well, it is steaming hot 🥵 at midnight when it comes to this naughty, innuendo-laden, and sex-laden column featuring songs intended for nighttime. These risqué, unapologetic records often raise eyebrows and temperature alike. In the 78^th edition of Midnight Heat (2025), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind “Post Sex Clarity” by Lola Young.

“Smart, funny, you’re like honey / I want you to tickle right down my throat.” 👀. Noted, Lola Young.  Is there any double entendre here, by chance? Anyways, in the pre-chorus of the boldly titled “Post Sex Clarity”, she asserts, “Ooh, you make me wanna, make me wanna lose myself, myself.” Damn. So, to provide some context, the phrase post-nut clarity has been thrown, specifically referencing how men feel post-ejaculation. Lola Young depicts her own lightbulb post-sex on the eighth track from her unapologetically titled 2025 album, I’m Only F**king Myself.  That deserves another damn, better yet, a gah-day-um! Young penned “Post Sex Clarity” with Conor Dickinson and producers Solomonophonic, Manuka (William Brown), and Carter Lang.

In the second verse, Young describes the pleasure and, of course, the clarity. “No, they didn’t do it how you just did it / So I want you to stay,” she sings, and adds, “I just came to my senses and I still don’t regret it / Not one little bit and I’m not usually like that.” Word.  The chorus, the centerpiece of the record, expresses this post-sex clarity at its clearest.  Lola clarifies:

“When I’m lyin’ in bed, got post-sex clarity

I still love you, and I don’t know why

‘Cause every other man didn’t mean a God damn to me

When I finish, it’s not the end of you and I.”

Holy sex! Holy post-sex? Holy post-sex clarity? Something like that.  Regardless, Lola Young brings the heat on “Post Sex Clarity”.  She sings beautifully, expressively, openly, and unapologetically. The melodies are tuneful, while the lyrics, as excerpted, are intriguing from start to finish. She’s backed by a warm backdrop, characterized by its ripe, soulful guitars, prominent bass line, and an anchoring groove.  This is a bold, if less-explicit-than-expected, relatable sex pop bop.
