Let's Get Back to Bed – Boy!
"Let's Get Back to Bed – Boy!" is a song by German recording artist Sarah Connor. Written and produced by frequent collaborative duo Rob Tyger and Kay Denar, it features American R&B singer TQ. Conceived for Connor's debut album, Green Eyed Soul (2001), the midtempo contemporary R&B track is built around a mandolin sample and scratching hip hop beats, over which Connor, as the female protagonist, adopts sensual vocals and expresses her desire to make love with her man, inviting him to her bed.

Music video
A music video was filmed for the song, featuring both Connor and TQ.[2]
The video begins at a large mansion, where Connor is in the bathtub. A party is happening downstairs, and we see TQ arriving and mingling with various women. Connor finishes getting ready and heads downstairs, catching the attention of TQ and the other guests.
Connor and TQ then retire to the bedroom to engage in relations, implied through the removal of clothing and the pair embracing.
The video ends with Connor and TQ leaving the house and heading towards their car, before deciding they are not quite finished in the bedroom, heading back inside whilst embracing and laughing together.
