your favorite seduction song

[deleted62]

I would say Chris Isaak's "Wicked Games", but I just might have a pavlovian response to that song.

Hi,

I really do agree with Horsehung in his musical choices.

DMW,
I guess "Boloro" is a bit too vanilla for my taste, but that similar effect of gradual build up to a climactic finish on a grand scale can be found in Smetna's "The Moldau" as well as Rachmaninoff's "Rhapsodies on a theme by Paganini".
For exquisite exoticism, there is nothing like "Scheherezade" by Rimsky-Korsokov .The violins .... can bring you to tears! For a reflective moment,
The Gymnopedies by Erik Satie, Ravel's "Pavane pour enfant defunte", Debussy's Beau Soir..... IMHO.


Naughty

Those 3 songs are beautiful reflective songs, Naughty, but I'd pick Debussy's "Claire De Lune" (sp?) over Beau Soir. But those 3 are favs of mine; I actually learned to play Claire De Lune on the piano back in college. I wanted to learn piano and had to pick a song from any genre........that's the song I picked. I don't think I remember how to play it now.

 

[naughty]

Heh Cara,
Girl, we have missed you! WHere have you been? Yes I love Claire de Lune too.But I just dont know about why but I think Beau Soir is so haunting it takes my breath away ! Have any other favorites do tell.

I've found that Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata really does the trick for me and any lady i'm with.


That, and when straying from the classic section, I also really like [/B]Endless love

 

[naughty]

You Guys kill me!

I thought we women were mushy! I love it though... just thinking about you great big guys getting all soft and mushy over songs like "Endless Love" and "The first tIme ever I saw your face".

Humongous,

You are definitely a brother! I know it now by your choice of music! My college boyfriend used to think something was going to happen when he would sing "Little Red Corvette " in my ears. ! LOL! NOT! Prince is fun to dance, to but it does not make me melt.

WVLady,

Now you are talking... classic seduction music with "The Walrus of love". LOL! How many guys used to lie down on their beds till their voices got nice and gravelly and called their intended prey to croon in their ears doing their best Barry Basso Profundo! LOL!

I did forget 4 additions to my list. Nora Jones doing a slow and sexy version of Hank Williams classic "Cold Cold Heart" and the standard ballad "The nearness of you" The other two belong to the queen ,Bonnie Raitt. )The first is "I can't make you love me" and the second is just too hot, honey! (Fanning my self! LOL! ) "Love me like a man" .It takes "Rock and roll" back to its original meaning! Hmmm,Hmmm,Hmmm.

There are a couple of non-classical tunes that do it for me, but it is unlikely that I will find many people who have them in their collection. They are both Edith Piaf torch songs: La vie en rose and L'hymne à l'amour. I don't suppose anyone here is an Edith Piaf fan?

 

[naughty]

Are you kidding, DMW ?

Edith Piaf only exemplified the French chanteuse at her best.Everything for her art. Of course her addictions and her everything for art way of living only helped to endear her to millions of post WWII fans. No one sang "La vie en rose" like the "little sparrow".

Naughty

P.S. Great choice actually!

Horsehung, I am overwhelmed with joy that you know Sigur Roz!! I have seen the video you spoke of several times, but will have to ask my daughter the name. She and I both found it positively gut-wrenching, if she has a copy, I'll get one to you. We saw them a couple years ago at the Fox Theatre in Detroit, it was sold out and halfway through the show I let my transfixed eyes move around the audience and there was not a dry eye in the house! Even singing in Icelandic, too beautiful to describe. That's so great that you took to the piano so quickly, must be a wonderful creative outlet as well as an entrance into the hearts of the classical composers. Mozart is my dearest love because he was such a genius/weirdo, some of the stuff in Don Giovanni is positively extraordinary. I think that one is all to often overlooked, parts of it even more dramatic than Requiem.

 

[Pecker]

I don't understand it. My feelings are definitely hurt.

She ran screaming from the house naked and I had gone to all the trouble to put on the most romantic Slim Whitman songs in my collection.

 

[headbang8]

Blossom Dearie singing It Might as Well Be Spring in French. It is one of the sexiest things I know.

Headbang,

I have not heard of Blossom Dearie... Do tell.

LoveGirl: Umm, I don't know much music, everyone's choices baffle me but, kind of an emotional song for me is Greensleeves A.K.A. What child is this?...

 

[naughty]

Love girl,

If you like Greensleves then you would love Ralph Vaughn Williams' "Fantasia on Greensleeves". I know this is not sexy, but it is a wonderful work... does anyone know it? It is Poulenc's "Dialogues des Carmelites"... quite moving. Also a wonderful album to get is Barbara Streisand's "Classical Barbara" It has some of the most haunting pieces on it. The most haunting is one with lyrics by the black russian poet Alexander Pushkin.Of course ... Horsehung, you would appreciate the particular selection from Carl Orff's "Carmina Burana", that is also a favorite.

But again for pure sensuality, it has to be Antonio Carlos Jobim. Insensitez, Meditation, Corcovado, Vivo Sohando, Amor em Paz,Wave, A Grand Amor, Desifinado, and of course, Garota de Ipanema...

Naughty

 

[MASSIVEPKGO_CHUCK]

I guess my selection would be a product of my era, the eighties. I've found that Almost Paradise from Footloose gets me in the mood. Also , I mentioned somewhere else that Endless Love also scores a big one.

BRMSTN69: I must admitt I'm suprised at how many people here enjoy classical music, I guess it's because of all the odd looks I got at car audio sound-offs when I played Bach Busters (interesting,by the way it's one guy playing the whole orchestra on digital synthesizers)he had other albums also Beethovan or bust was notorious for blowing subs when the connon blast went off in the 5th

 

[13788]

Javierdude22: Uhm...do all of you really seduce people by putting on classical music? I like classical music in most relaxing environments, except when I'm seducing someone.

For me right now 'Till the cops come knockin' by Maxwell really works for me.

I do. There's just so much romance in classical music and candlelight. It sets a different mood than rappers singing "Pop that coochie", porn videos blazing on the big screen TV, Magnum XL's filled with helium and salamis hanging from the chandelier. The art of seduction lies in subtlety.

 

[naughty]

I agree DMW,

The music itself does not do the trick it is incidental music for the artist to work his or her art."The greater the artist , the greater the art" - Collette from "Gigi"

It's a matter of romance. Porn movies and hip hop (e.g., "She Swallowed It") for some reason just aren't romantic.
